Reply #62: You have just destroyed your own arguement [View All]

First you say "Personally I believe that the institution of marriage was created to provide a stable environment in which to create and raise children. Obviously homosexual marriage has nothing to do with creating and raising children."

Then you don't like the results of that and state "We are in different time periods." Quite true, but you can't say that different time periods can change the "rules" for heterosexual marriage, yet not for gay couples. To do so would be, well, hypocritical.

Perhaps you should come up with either some better and more consistant reasoning, or state your real reasons for opposing gay marriage.

As for the federal marriage rights attached to marriage, I hope you have some reading time set aside. www.gao.gov/archive/1997/og97016.pdf
