Keep it up people, in the future you all gonna see the effects off such thing that you all talking about..
And one more thing i am not obligated to respect and not show my thoughts to such subject..

Clever people when you talk about gays and lesbians they right away see the big problem that causes those behaviors..

Interesting.

I wonder if there is such a thing as a gay animal (seriously) - or are we the only form of animal that has this train of thought?

Other than that, I think it's a brilliant way to get exposure. Then again, knowing Google they have ulterior motives.


It 's fairly common actually. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gay_animals

The way I see it you have to provide some proof in order to attempt to predict the apocalypse that's going to happen when it really becomes legalized. And no, religious text will not be considered as evidence.

The onus is on you.

If you can't, stop talking shit and fuck off.

Why would they want to get wed in a christian manner if christianity as a religion is totally against gay people. It would mean that christians would have to somehow change the religion for it to be possible for gay people to get married there. This should be more like a campaign for allowing gay people to register their "marriage" in like a state office or something, because they can't for christianity to change their views, that are based on "a holy book" just because some gay people want to get married in a church.

ps. not a christian, but this is just stupid.


Because it's easier to adopt babies, visit your significant other in the hospital, get a loan from banks, get various kinds of allowances from the state as a married couple in most countries. Just from the top of my head and I'm sure there's a lot of other things I forgot. Also, as it's going on in some countries, inventing a special institution for gay couples instead of marriage to have similar rights is just discrimination.
As for the christian part, a worldwide program can't exactly be about legalizing christian marriage since only the third of the world's population is christian a lot of them living in countries where they don't have tap water let alone google offices.

Uh... I... Sure I'll try; could you specify more of what will happen if we allow gay marriage?

Marriage should not be tied to religion in any country in the world and this should be the ONLY focus of this campaign.

If some people want to celebrate the first day of their marriage in a religious environment, it should be their right based on religious freedom laws.

Government, at least on paper, is an agent of the will of its citizens. The second you start blaming governments you've completely lost sight of the enemy, and you will never win the fight. You're not fighting government. You're fighting people. You're fighting you, you're fighting me, you're fighting your parents, you're fighting Hot_bid. The government is just the tool through which consensus and enforcement is made manifest. Don't blame countries for discriminating against their citizens. Blame citizens for discriminating against themselves.

I could see this thread getting really ugly really fast.

I think it's admirable of Google to push this forward even though I do not personally believe in gay marriage etc. Not sure how it will all work out but it's pretty surprising that such a big company has decided to push for such an action. Interested to see how this will all turn out.

I think this is very well-put and generally agree. However, there is a possibility for authoritarian states to rule temporarily against the will of the citizens, which is present in a number of nations as you know of course.

I'm pretty sure Destiny got into a pretty big mess spitting racial slurs.
You're open to your opinions and you have a free speech but others are free to give you smack for it.

It's actually pretty common for people to dislike homophobic behaviour.

I for one, hope that they will just stop eating and 'pray' that jesus personally delivers their food.

That way, in a few weeks to a month, we will have about 99% less bigoted idiots walking around.

Oh joyful day that will be!

Not only did he not use a racial slur (even if he had used a demeaning word, gay isn't exactly a race), but also no, you're actually not free to smack people. That's battery. (lol)

To clarify, I am heterosexual. Much more concise/clear lol. Sorry for the confusion. ^^

Well to elaborate on it a little bit more, I guess I am slightly irrationally afraid of gay people, but I think they deserve the same full marriage rights and benefits of course. Christian marriage is one thing, but in modern society religions no longer have full control over the definition of marriage, so I think that homosexual marriage is something that should and probably eventually will be legalized nearly unilaterally.

To me, I feel that the government feels that it must not disappoint the religious communities because religion is tied with ethnicities, and so on and so forth. A shit storm, basically. I don't have anything to back this up though, just my own speculations.

No, but if you have such an offensive and ignorant view you might as well keep it to yourself. There is a large variety of people that support homosexuality - most of them most likely to be more intelligent than you.
