I dont think the government has a right to tell you who you can and can not sleep with or marry. I think its discuting that they concern themselves with something that is none of their business. The goverment talks about the freedom that you have by being a citizen well thats BS considering that gays and lesbians are citizens and they dont have the freedom. Or is it for only the "straight" americans that have the freedom.
Religious groups are falling back on the words of the bible saying this is wrong shouldnt be allowed well depending on what theory of evolution you believe in which would depend on religion as well look at Adam and Eve. Eve was created by the rib of Adam. They were told by god to populate the world well if everyone came from Adam and Eve thats just nothing but total incest if you ask me. Personally I think Incest is a lot more discusting then 2 people of the same sex being together.
I think that same sex couples should have the same rights as any straight couple. In Blacks42 post he quoted "And suppose for the sake of argument, that while the three of them were driving home from the hospital, there was a car accident and the birth mom was rendered brain dead. If it were a husband and wife deal, the surviving spouse would have legal control over medical treatment (or ceasing of it) for their injured partner, plus have no problem securing sole custody of the baby. But in this case, the surviving lezbo would have no legal recourse despite having just as much time and energy invested as a male partner would". Heres another view on that. A man and woman get married. Man finds out that hes got a medical problem that doesnt allow him to produce sperm. The man cant inpregnate his wife so they talk about insimintation. They go through all the steps so they use her eggs and doner sperm. Well hubby has no ties to that child other then its going to be carrying his last name. The mother dies and all of a sudden the "father" has is a single parent. Its not his kid but in the goverments eyes it is, why wouldnt they take it away from him? Doesnt make sense at all.
It just seems like there is a whole new set of rules for same sex couples wanting to be together and I personally think its unfair.
