Republicans really do hate gay people

[MrFun]

No.

What the ****, MrFun actually agrees with separate but equal?

People who support marriage for heterosexual couples, but only civil unions for homosexual couples agree with separate but equal.

But no, I oppose "separate but equal." I'm just showing the ridiculousness of what you've tried to argue.

[MrFun]

Gribbler having a bank account makes me unhappy for no purpose. He should be forced to give up his account so that he would make me happy.

No one else's marriage is affected by another person's marriage. Hence, your "analogy" is stupid.

[Wiglaf]

No, but he's doing an excellent job of pointing out how ridiculous the argument is you've been making about how men and women being allowed to marry somehow makes a ban on gay marraige non-discriminatory.

Why do you keep referring to 'gay marriage'? I thought you are arguing 'marriage' means whatever you want it to mean, so I don't see why you spell out the extra word 'gay' all the time.

If that's the case, why can't I marry two people? Clearly marriage isn't private, and it doesn't work the same way as 'freedom of association'. If no one's marriage is affected by anyone elses - then I should be able to marry two people.

[Ben Kenobi]

No... it is my private property and for you to have it I would have to lose something. There is a clear purpose for me to keep it. For gays to get married you don't have to give up the ability to get married.

Why does owning your own private property trump making me happy? Clearly, it does not. Your morality is archaic and backwards. From each according to his ability -> You. To each according to his needs -> Me. And I have needs, brother.

[Ming]

Because marriage involves genitalia? Or so I'm told.

No... marriage involves commitment, love, trust, and many other things. SEX involves genitalia...
But how would you know since you have not done either... Maybe you should listen to people who know what they are talking about.

[MrFun]

BK, I think you would do better to marry a cactus.

[Ben Kenobi]

Sex is important to marriage. Who knew? Thanks for keeping me up to speed, Ming.

[Ben Kenobi]

Speaking from personal experience again? I thought Dinner posted a thread about this sort of thing... We don't need two threads.

[Guynemer]

YES.

YOU SHOULD.

DO TRY TO KEEP UP.

[Ben Kenobi]

YOU SHOULD.

So your marriage would be unaffected by you marrying another woman?

[Guynemer]

Okay. I think communism is stupid and I also see no connection between same-sex marriage and communism.

[DaShi]

Fun, I actually think Wiggy's being deadly serious with this one.

The minute you start treating Wiglaf seriously, you've lost.
