Why, one could riot anyway.

I found this in a guy's blog. Take it with a pinch of salt

Quote:
10 Reasons Why Gay Marriage is Wrong

01) Being gay is not natural. Real Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, and air conditioning. I mean we do have a list somewhere where they list everything that is natural too... if we could find that list we'll broadcast it on CNN!!!

02) Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall.

03) Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract.

04) Straight marriage has been around a long time and hasn't changed at all; women are still property, blacks still can't marry whites, and divorce is still illegal.

05) Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed; the sanctity of Britany Spears' 55-hour just-for-fun marriage would be destroyed.

06) Straight marriages are valid because they produce children. Gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn't be allowed to marry because our orphanages aren't full yet, and the world needs more children.

07) Obviously gay parents will raise gay children, since straight parents only raise straight children.

08) Gay marriage is not supported by religion. In a theocracy like ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That's why we have only one religion in America.

09) Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at home. That's why we as a society expressly forbid single parents to raise children.

10) Gay marriage will change the foundation of society; we could never adapt to new social norms. Just like we haven't adapted to cars, the service-sector economy, or longer life spans.

About the list, well, I think us liberal types will have to bow out of this thread. I mean, in the face of such well-reasoned arguments, the only option that remains to us is admitting that gay marriage should never be legalised because it's bad for society and stuff.





Bwahahaha!! Priceless!!

I meant: find "validity [of argument]" on the "internet [blogs]"

Hector, luv, validity of an argument is not dependent on where it comes from; it's about the only thing you can trust from the internet as much as from a normal source.

I'd love to meet the dog that can sign a marriage contract.

Ah yes. Hector, I totally understand your blog dislike as they are (IMNHO) totally over-referenced in our society. I find it hideous when the are used as a news source, as they are someone's online journal. However, they are awesome for general reading purposes.

One may also agree or disagree with the contents of blogs without being an idiot (not that you were saying people were idiots).

Lady Willow Rose, in twelve short words, you completely debunked the whole (... and then people will marry their pets!) argument. I salute you!
