Obama says same-sex couples should be able to marry

[tmleadr03]

So every other culture in human history EXCEPT Judaism and Christianity allowed gay marriage? Really?

I would submit that this is the first time in human history that gay marriage was even CONSIDERED, let alone allowing gays to be openly gay.

The idea that marriage is only between only a man and a woman (or a man and several women, but otherwise a heterosexual convention) has been the defacto standard since LONG before Abraham was born (the first Jew) and even longer before Christ.

Furthermore, virtually every major world religion condemns homosexuality as some sort of aberration, sin or otherwise "bad juju". So it's not just Christian Republicans.


One can make the case that it's "fair" to allow gay marriage, even that it's appropriate for a free society like America. But the idea that opposition to gay marriage is some sort of theocratic Judeo-Christian bigotry is just asinine and shows a total lack of awareness of human history.

You should read up a bit more on the subject.

But just to take your logic, while ignoring facts, and run with it. Would you be happy if we stuck to the marriage practices that have been in place for most of human history?

That chick looks hot. I'm going to go boop her on the head with a baseball bat and take her home.
