  • Wow it's so sad to see that this video has more dislikes than likes. I wish people weren't so eager to take away the rights of their peers.

  • @AmblingSoul bot bots froom bigots

  • fuck you catherine and austin.

    welp, that felt good.

  • This is sick, these kids have been brainwashed by homosexual liberals, do not use kids for your disgusting agenda.

  • @thetruth6789 no brainwashing done here, only brainwashing being done is by the anti gay conservatives

  • @idaman12345 Brainwashing is systematically engraining something that is un-natural and immoral into someones mind, which is what homosexuals are doing.

  • @thetruth6789 except homosexuality is not unnatural

  • @idaman12345 Homosexuality is un-natural.

  • Hahaha too bad these faggots lost.

  • keep the sanctity of marriage?

    so the sanctity is not two people loving each other unconditionally yet getting married via drive thru chapel in vegas and separate two days later? (britney spears)

    or enter a reality tv show and audience vote on which stranger you should end up with ? (the bachelor)

  • ban it... people have some many liberties as it is and just keep asking for more and more.. it's not always about whats right for YOU and what YOU want!! I'm sure they're a lot of people who want to steal cars and rob banks because it's what's right for them and the money would benefit them but they can't. I want to carry a firearm everywhere I go for protection, but I can't! I would think personal protection would come before personal satisfaction. The line has to be drawn somewhere!

  • @asilva1818 Totally agree my friend.

  • I hate when people say "Having gay marraige will take my rights away"

    No

    it wont.

    Unless you plan on having a gay marraige, it probably will not affect you.

    It will just give other people their rights

  • I like many others live about the "world"

    Where marriage IS sacred between a husband and wife. We do not get tied down to wordly ways.

  • I love how they make no mention that the vote was about gay marriage.

    I would of voted no on it just because of this misleading ad.

  • @n0s1r LOL I was just about to say that! They mislead many people into thinking "oh crap i cant get married to my WIFE now!"

  • @CuntyDecimator I meant to say I would have voted yes on Prop8 just because of this.

    I don't hate gays, I hate liars. And the supporters of Prop8 were at least honest about it. They wanted you to vote yes because they hate faggots.

  • @n0s1r Of course, homosexuals don't want you to know their true disgusting agenda.

  • @thetruth6789 yeah wanting equal rights is disgusting

  • @idaman12345 Gays have equal rights, why do you keep repeating yourself.

  • @thetruth6789 not really repeating myself

    why do you continue to lie?

  • @idaman12345 You're lying and can not elaborate. 

  • @thetruth6789 the only one lying here is you

    homosexuality is natural

    you lie by saying it is

  • @idaman12345 Elaborate on how it is not un-natural? It goes against the norm, the norm is to reproduce, all animals mate to reproduce, homosexuality defeats the purpose of mating, it is biologically impossible for two homosexuals to procreate.

  • @thetruth6789 other than the fact its seen in nature?

    and if its really natural to have children, then i guess infertle people are unnatural too

  • @idaman12345 So humans are like the rest of the animal kingdom? Homosexuality is a deviance, it is not normal.

  • @thetruth6789 seeing as humans are technically a part of the animal kingdom then yeah

    who exactly is to say what is and isnt normal?

  • @idaman12345 Hahaha you compare humans to the rest of the animal kingdom, you realize how ridiculous that sounds.

  • @thetruth6789 my posts arent the ones that look ridiculous

    yours do

    but then again you should actually try the truth for once

  • @thetruth6789 no, I understand WHY they would something like this... They were attempting to take advantage of the fact that the average American voter is little more than meat with eyes.

    THAT is my problem with this ad. If it sways you on the issue it simply means you are retarded.

  • @thetruth6789 My ACTUAL opinion on the matter of gay marriage is Marriage is a RELIGIOUS institution so it's up to the heads of those religions if you can get married or not, end of story.

    The TRUE problem is that in American society being married awards you certain governmental benefits which it SHOULDN'T because there is supposed to be a separation of Church and State.

    Gay folks... Don't try to fight the marriage issue, fight the governmental benefits issue.

  • @n0s1r What governmental benefits?

  • @tbone2872 certain tax deductions, the ability to register assets jointly, etc.

  • @n0s1r Marriage doesn't come from religion, it's a human social custom that pre-dates christianity. A chruch that's privately owned has the right to not marry any couple, but any couple has the right to marry. End of story.

    Even without legal benefits people can still be married. Call it in office whatever you want, couples will still say "I'm married."

  • @glassesfreak well, now you are just playing semantics while trying to relegate a legal term to the status of a colloquial term.

    I'm speaking on the differences between the legal term "Marriage" and the religious ritual the general public has come to call marriage. If a particular religious sect does not wish to preform the aforementioned ritual for gay couples they have the right not to. At the same time I am asking what business does a religious institution have bestowing LEGAL rights?

  • In my humble opinion, the LEGAL way to settle this whole nonsense would be to make it so ALL "marriages" (or whatever they so happen to be called) are done through a LEGAL REGISTRY (similar to divorce) and if the participating parties wish to celebrate the event in some way, good for them.

    I personally look at the religious ceremony aspect of a "marriage" the same way I look at the catering aspect. Only obligated by contract, and neither should grant legal status or rights.

  • @thetruth6789 but yeah, essentially this shit shouldn't even be on the ballot because it has NOTHING to do with Government.

  • DUMB!

  • Prejudice is not the same as Miscreant ...!

    Who do You Want Guard Your Little "Lambs" a Wolf or the Shepard...?

  • All this gay and lesbian shit of them wanting to get married is just to shave it down the christens throat. If not true. Answer me this. If u are gay or lesbian. At what place do u want to get married? A nice fancy church? Where the people of that church don't agree with your point of view. So when they say they cant do it. Then you can run and look for a lawyer? Why? To shave your way of life down a Christians throat.....

  • @handyman6042

    Uhh..you do realize they could get married by a justice of the peace/judge right?They don't need to get married at a church.

  • OK so get married at the court house and stay out of the churches that don't want you there.

  • @handyman6042

    I'm heterosexual.i was standing up for the homosexuals...

  • @handyman6042 Religious freaks...

  • Comment removed

  • watever u say u old sexual predator

  • as long as you're preserving marriage, how about we ban divorce? It's against god to do that too.

  • That's the same thing the racist bigots told Martin Luther King, Jr.

  • How about no, ignorance is not a permanent thing people will realize they did something stupid and vote no on prop 8

  • good guys didnt win with prop h8

  • The guy on the commercial is GAY so he would vote NO, VOTE YES!!!!!!!!!

  • Look at the LDS double standards shine through, due to the boycott of Mormon owned businesses.

  • this ad was very misleading...

  • This issue has nothing to do with equality. If you think it's wrong for a 60-year old man to marry 4 teenage girls at the same time, are you depriving this man and the girls of equality? We all draw a line in the sand somewhere.

  • The DSM-V does not recognize homosexuality as a mental illness. Even if it was an illness, I would see no reason to hate them for it, or to stop them from getting married. Mentally ill people have every right to get married, and are certainly deserving of basic human respect.

  • To all you fascist left wing turds: The Supreme Court of California has upheld the same sex marriage ban....just in case you did know....HAHAHAHA....I want you all to know I am enjoying this moment.

  • How the fuck is someone who votes for equal rights fascist?

    To me it means Canadian. And sometimes it means American.

    Read the constitution.

  • The1andonlyjman: Open up your small mind and I will tell you. When one group of people seeks to force their will, beliefs, values, religion, politics...etc. on others they are acting in a fascist manner....period. No person or group has the right to do that. The people of California have spoken. Homosexuals can have Civil Unions just not marriage. That is extremely fair. Marriage is considered sacred and hence it is therefore protected. Accept it... and deal with it.

  • 1) My mind is never closed

    2) I think with tolerance

    3) Marriage was originally started so men could own women as property. It also predates Christianity and Judaism.

    4) So what? Only heteros are sacred? That is bigotry and also not fair.

    5) Your the one shoving all this down my throat. In a non-sexy manner.

  • The1andonlyjman: Biologically speaking, homosexuality is an abnormal deviation resulting in the death of one passing on their genes. Essentially their genes are removed from the gene pool from a lack of breeding. That is a disorder that would kill a species if it was done exclusively. Technically, it IS a disorder. As a disorder, homosexuals are not a minority group per say, but rather people with a sexual orientation problem. The people and the courts of Ca. have spoken. Accept Civil Unions.

  • is that why the apa doesnt consider it a disorder,

    and if civil unions are so good why not just make straight couples get it too

  • Idaman12345: Straight couples are normal...why would they need Civil Unions? Homosexual couples are abnormal. Marriage is sacred and needs to be protected. Homo's can have Civil Unions. Understand and accept... that you are abnormal.... deal with it. It is not natural for a man to look at anothers man's cock...and think..."gee" that looks like something I need shoved in my ass!

  • want to protect marriage

    ban divorce, not gay marriage

  • Comment removed

  • @idaman12345 Divorce is part of the institution of marriage you imbecile, you can't ban divorce, you're a fucking idiot.

  • @thetruth6789 you want to "protect the sanctity of marriage" then you have to ban divorce

    "till death do you part"

  • @idaman12345 Divorce is part of the institution of marriage.

  • @idaman12345 I'm also glad you bring up divorce since the highest divorce and affair rates are in homosexual couples.

  • loanranger went to canada to get married to his "life partner". now he is a gay married man who is angry cuz his husbands dick is limp.

  • Just so everyone knows, tellit2yastr8 is a low IQ idiot (just look at his comment) who struggles with his own homosexuality. I think most of you would agree...straight men to not make numerous sexual comments to other men. Out of frustration and self loathing, he can't come to terms with it...so he resorts to accusing straight people of being gay. For those of you who know...what he is doing is called projecting.

  • loanranger is one of my loyal bitches of my awsome reign as king. he lets his mouth overload his gay ass and a hard pimp slap by me will put him back in his place as my property.

  • Tellit2yastr8....just keep proving my point by saying silly crap like that. I may disagree with these homos about gay marriage.... but at least they have the courage to come out of the closet.

  • everyone needs to go to mikes channel and help him come out of the closet. he is gay for sure and wants to marry a man no doubt.

  • Tellit2yastr8: You do more damage to yourself with your own stupid, pathetic, immature words then I ever could. What you said was so adolescent....then anyone with half a brain can see you for the imbecile that you really are.

  • HA! marriage is sacred?

    what kinda fucking world do you live in??!

    if you've been living under a rock, divorce killed any type of sacredness that comes with the word marriage, just a reality check.

  • Are you related to Adolf Hitler?

  • The1andonlyjman: Civil Unions can give you the same rights as normal people. (Yes I said normal) Be happy with that. You can still sock cock and have your asshole stretched....and then give your partner the common courtesy of a reach around.

  • Whatever. Also Btw It's not a disorder.

  • glad you a right wing nazi bigot enjoy second class citizenship

  • A new report by UCLA's Williams Institute shows that Lesbian couples are more likely to be poor than married heterosexuals, and children of same-sex parents are twice as likely to live in poverty as those of traditional married couples.

    The study's co-author says same-sex partners are more likely to be poor because they lack such safety nets as a spouse's health insurance coverage and Social Security survivor benefits.

    Denying gay families the rights of marriage HURTS children.

  • Did I hit too close to home?

    I guess discriminating is only fun until you're the one being discriminated against.

    Yes, I DO discriminate against poor people because they cause most of the crime. Poor people even SMELL different than normal people.

    Gay people on the other hand generally aren't poor and don't hurt anyone.

    I was right about you not being able to drive through the 90210 without getting stopped. My first car was a 911 GT2. Cops don't stop that ride in the hills.

  • So stop replying. WGAF! You're a moron.

    Usually poor= too stupid to get out of the ghetto.

    Sometimes it just means that your parents are stupid.

    How poor would you have to be NOT to have a computer?

    Then again, you can't buy a computer with food stamps.

    See, I don't have to worry about someone beating my ass because I live IN BEVERLY HILLS. We have the best po-po in the whole country my brutha. You wouldn't be able to drive through my hood without getting stopped, dropped, and rolled!

  • I was able to comprehend what you were saying. I just thought it was total BS.

    Brainwashed and ignorant? You want to compare schools?

    I live in the 90210. I bet you live in the ghetto somewhere.

    pwned! for certain! EPIC FAIL! FTW!

  • Sorry Dude, I didn't mean to rub it in. I usually am not bigoted towards people have mental illness.

    You are pretty bigoted against gay people though.

    If you can't see it, I can't help you. Maybe your seeing a therpist isn't such a bad idea. LOL

  • You should be nicer to each other.

  • Dude, I'm not gay. What she wrote makes a hell of a lot more sense than your retarded cracked out crapola.

    Anyone who reads what you wrote, and what she wrote can tell you got served.

    I don't have classes tomorrow, so get bent.

  • Dude, she totally pwned you!

    You just kept spouting BS and sounded like a total retard.

    You not only came across as a bigot, but you came across as a STUPID bigot.

    EPIC FAIL!

  • "and i am justifiying [sic] my views by showing its normal to show how many faggots [sic] were PURGED from this world." You sound like a Nazi saying Jews are bad and using the Holocaust as "proof".

    How is AIDS a social problem?

    Oh forget it, you are too stupid to argue with. I don't think I've ever encountered ANYONE so in love with their own ignorance and stupidity. Seriously, I would have you committed if you lived here. You are obviously mentally unhinged.

  • Clearly he's slightly retarded. You should just "block" him.

  • Google: Homosexuality Among Native Americans for some reading that may enlighten you.

    Also check out New Internationalist magazine for an article on Native American homosexuality.I'll quote Rae Trewartha, "Native Americans not only accepted lesbian and gay people, they respected them as prophets, hunters or healers."

  • Your language has clearly crossed the line. You swear like a sailor on leave. Educated people do not talk like this.

    I live in Toronto. That would be no surprise if you read my bio page.

    Google: Military Dictatorships in Developing Countries for some reasons why Africa is in the shape its in.

  • I realize that the term "faggot" is a pejorative used against gay people, but that is STILL NOT THE CORRECT USE OF THE WORD. It is as improper as using the word "nigger" to refer to black people.

    Clearly, I am not the one in this conversation who is lacking a dictionary.

    I do advocate gay rights because it is the morally correct thing to do.

    When I said that Africa was "ruined" it was not a so much a moral judgment, but a commentary on the social problems that exist there.

    cont.

  • If you would like to see the results of some of the APA's studies search for "APA" and "sorientation". Omit the quotation marks.

    "Foolish logic" is an oxymoron.

    You want to justify your hatred and bigotry by pointing out how many gay people are MURDERED throughout the world.

    My God. That's pathological.

  • Gay people have NOT been killed throughout human history. In ancient Greece there was no stigma attached to homosexual behavior. The Romans even allowed homosexual marriage for a time. Also, the American Indians did not stigmatize gay people. Perhaps YOU should read a book.

    Your other "examples" are also ridiculous. You are arguing that bigotry is OK because other cultures are bigoted? If I hadn't read some of your other assertions, I'd be gobsmacked by that.

  • First of all, I am straight female so I could hardly be a "faggot" as you are trying to use the word.

    The correct definition: "A faggot or fagot is a bundle of sticks or branches".

    What book would you suggest that I read?

    One that states that Africa has some of the most corrupt governments on earth, the highest rates of AIDS infections in the world per capita, the poorest countries in the world, or untold human rights violations perhaps?

  • You are clearly uninformed as well as ignorant. Look at the statistics. The better educated a person is, the LESS likely he or she is to be bigoted against gays and lesbians.

    You are clearly not that highly educated. There is no shame in that. Many people in your country lack formal education. There is however something wrong with being rude, arrogant, and boorish. Your comments have long ago crossed that line.

  • Do a search on "Toxic people" if you don't know what the term means.

    "It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt ". -- George Eliot

  • You keep commenting that "most of the world" thinks that being gay is a disease, but you offer nothing to back up your opinions. What data are you using to support your argument?

    The APA and AMA have scientific studies that back up there positions on homosexuality.

    I'm not trying to sound educated, I AM educated. I have a Master of Business Administration and Master of Arts from the University of Toronto. My husband is a psychiatrist.

    cont.

  • switch faggot and bigot and your right

    the only disease is ignorance and can be cured with an education

  • An educated person would know that the APA and AMA BOTH recognize that homosexuality is NOT in any way a mental illness.

    Sexual orientation is simply something that a person is born with (or according to some theories something that develops shortly after birth).

    You talk about gay people being mentally ill, but your tirade makes you sound unstable. More than ever I convinced that you should seek therapy. I'm not trying to be mean, just helpful.

  • Yes, you need help. You are so full of hatred that you are toxic.

    You have as right to be prejudiced I suppose, but other people also have the right to call you out because of your bigotry.

    Who cares what percentage of any population a minority is? It's irrelevant when you are discussing how people should be treated. Africa has a LOT of problems. Do you really want to emulate a continent that has fallen into ruins.

    Gay people are human beings who deserve equality.

  • im very open minded your the conservative terrorist that needs to open his mind and realize the truth

    education is a great thing you should try it some time

  • Denying gay families the right to marry IS discrimination. In the US many rights are conveyed to married couples that are denied to gay families.

    Denying gay couples the right to legally marry is discrimination that according to UCLA's Williams Institute unnecessarily forces some gay couples and their children to live in poverty.

  • You obviously have some issues that you should seek therapy for.

    Countries that recognize same sex marriage:

    Belgium, Canada, Netherlands, Norway, South Africa, Spain, and Sweden.

    Many other countries have equal rights for both straight and gay couples:

    Andorra, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greenland, Hungary, Iceland, Luxembourg, New Zealand, Slovenia,

    Switzerland, United Kingdom, and Uruguay.

    This kind of shoots your "most of the world" theory in the foot.

  • not a "faggot"

    and the only one that seems to have been lied to is you

    homosexuality is not a disease

    now do the world a favor and either educate yourself or shut up

  • not gay but i do stand up for those who have no control of what they do and homosexuality is not practiced by mentally insane people

  • someone should put a bullet thru your head make the world a little better

  • incest and homosexuality two different things, you dont choose to be homosexual

    you do choose to be closed minded such as yourself

  • i say let "fags" or gays live

    just kill all closed minded bigots like you

  • Wow. I think you need to open your mind. Clearly, your mind is the only one that isn't open. If you really had an open mind, you wouldn't care if a person was gay.

    And how does a person being gay even effect you? It doesn't. People just can't be happy so they have to take the happiness of others away,

  • i'm not even from the US... but damn, do you really believe in what you're saying? How can you all have so much hate in your hearts? =(

  • that literally makes no sense at all. how does two men or two women getting married mean that necrophelia is acceptable, ive seen a lot of remarks like this dealing with bestiality mostly. i dont see the pattern i guess all i see is two people who agree with each other that they are in love and want to be bonded in the eyes of the government, it has nothing to do with one party getting horny and the seond party having no say in the matter which is what bestiality and necrophilia really is.

  • spacemarinesalamande - You should seriously consider just jumping in front of a bus you worthless piece of ignorant shit

  • that boy is hawt

  • EQUALITY FOR ALL? Great, fine, make it legal for people to marry whoever they want. Let relatives marry oneanother. Let polygamist marry as many people as they want.

    That is DISCRIMINATION. That is HATE.

    A law that would extend the PRIVELEGE of only letting Gays and Lesbians marry DISCRIMINATES against other people. Those who say is would not are either ignorant or HYPOCRITICAL.

    "it's not right."

    "The law can't tell us who to marry."

    Let's see Catherine and Austin support that.

  • heterosexual marriage = produce babies

    homosexual marriage = adopt children

    What does the human race really need?

    More babies? If you are against same sex marriage because they can't produce children then you are the biggest idiot on the planet. I am heterosexual but i will stand up for my homosexual friends because they are nice people who LOVE children and some of them are planning to adopt. Don't strip away their right to give a child a home and love.

  • What about birth control? does birth control have anything to do with what i commented? Oh, and yes i have watched idiocracy.

  • okay. But even if we have birth control and such there are still SO many children who need to be adopted.

  • I'd say most straight men would do just about the same thing. But I'm not that ignorant to make such a generalization. Anyway what you just stated has nothing to do with my comment. Stay on topic.

  • So do gay men,

    Not all gay men are like those gay pride sex zombies. Just like not all straight men are like charlie sheen in 2 and a half men. You are making a generalization.

  • Can i ask you if you have a history of mental retardation? You keep making senseless generalization regardless of what i am stating.

  • CHARESTHEHAMER, I have never seen "public sex" duirng a gay pride event. Are you perhaps refering to the kind of behavior that can be observed by heterosexuals at 'events' like Spring Break?

  • Yeah, straight men have limits: limits imposed on them by women.

  • IM BRIAN DAVIS CALL ME 1-310-908-9706

  • So glad im living i Scandinavia, people are so homophobic over there in the US. Many gays have children here, and they can adopt. And guess what, their children are just like anyone else. Only reason this could hurt, its because intolerant parents say it. Keep on reading your farytaile book, Europe left it many years ago.

  • Haha how dumb is it possible to be. typical american. You should check your soruces, cuz Italy is the only "western european" country with low birth rate, and gays can not adopt children or get married in Italy. So screw you;)!

  • European birth rates have been declining though.

    But seriously, to blame it on the Gays, how fucjing dumb is that? lol.

    And seriously. I think we have enough kids as it is.

    Oh, and marriage rates have been going up.

    Thanks Aegius for not knowing anything. :P

  • YES!! MAKE BABIES! MAKE MANY MANY BABIES! WHO CARES IF IT TAKES A GAS GUZZLING SUV TO CART AROUND ALL THOSE KIDS!? WHO CARES IF A TEENAGER GETS PREGNANT? WHO CARES IF A YOUNG GIRL GETS RAPED BY HER OWN FATHER? WHO CARES IF A FAMILY DOESN'T HAVE ENOUGH MONEY TO PAY THEIR MORTGAGE AND FEED THEIR 8 CHILDREN AT THE SAME TIME? BABIES! MORE!

    *severe sarcasm*

    Overpopulation will kill this world, not gay marriage, seeing as we have less than enough resources to meet the demands of people these days.

  • Why is everyone so afraid of gay people raising kids? When I see things like parents dumping their children or killing them I think by myself those people are not worthy having a child. And you know what they are always hetero. Gay people have to fight if they have the wish for a child so they will raise a child with love and care. And sexual orientation does not rub of from parents (why are there gay people then?). People who are controlled by fear cannot make rational decisions btw ;)

  • The law IS NOT telling you who you could love you can love whoever you want, its just telling your who you can OFFICIALLY marry. If you're a homosexual simply get into a domestic partnership. Its the same thing its just not called marriage. You get the same protection and rights married couples get!

    NO ON 8-California children in elementary school would be taught that gay and traditional marriage is the same.

    Don't believe me? Copy and paste in google:

    FirstGraders Taken to Gay Wedding FieldTrip

  • Do you realize how many legal benefits you get through marriage? Domestic partnerships do not measure up.

  • Marraige is between and man and woman.

  • let the queers get married, they can be taxed just like the rest of the married folks.

    The law should exclude them from adoptions, they cannot procreate just like normal married people then they should not be allowed to adopt! NO, they can't have that piece of the pie. No adoption of any kind! The artifical means for the bitches is off the table also! If you turn Fag while you are in a NORMAL marriage you loose the right for child custody to the children procreated while in that marriage.

  • "The law should exclude them from adoptions, they cannot procreate just like normal married people then they should not be allowed to adopt!"

    Yes, because the world needs to prevent capable adults from giving orphans a loving home. It simply doesn't make sense to allow further discrimination against a target group and to continue to name rights they can't have because of sexual orientation is just wrong and un-American.

  • We got mother fuckers telling us who we should love. its a crying shame that people cant live and let live

  • In fact marriage has been defined in the West and everywhere else as male-female & only in very recent times has it been considered to include male-male and female-female which most of the world disagrees with. The norm of marriage has been polygamy in fact, but always male-female and never same sex.

  • "In fact marriage has been defined in the West and everywhere else as male-female & only in very recent times has it been considered to include male-male and female-female which most of the world disagrees with."

    Voting were for the longest time only for white males. Should we just 'stick to tradition', or should we do what is right?

  • Nobody is telling me I need to get married to have sex, and lots of it hehe. Just kidding. If you wanna get married, you have my blessing.

  • Charming. They make it sound so innocent and reasonable.

  • This video is kinda cheesy but I agree with what these people are saying.

  • This is quoted out of the Merriam-Webster Collegiate Dictionary:

    "marriage 1 (1) the state of being united to the opposite sex as husband or wife in a consentual and contractual relationship recognized by law (2) the state of being united to a person of the same sex in a relationship like that of a traditional marriage"

    It said "like that of a traditional marriage"; nonetheless, it was still a definition of marriage.

  • Definitions can change, my friend.

  • Why is the religious right and the Republican Party SOO committed to taking away personal liberty on social issues? Because they don't really believe in freedom, at least not for the little guy. The only freedom they want is the freedom of the corporation to screw you over as a worker and consumer.

  • They keep repeating this mantra that they care SOO much about freedom to distract voters. If voters don't keep hearing that lie, they'll start to think for themselves and realize the GOP doesn't shit a freedom.

    They also say it to delude themselves into thinking they care more about freedom than the other side.

  • I have always thought it ironic that the party of "small government" wants the state to barge into the bedroom, supports the Patriot Act, supports wiretapping without oversight, etc. I suppose 99988743 doesn't see any contradiction there.

  • democrats want your wallet and republicans want to be in your house.

    That's why im a libertarian : )

  • That about sums it up. I am appalled at democrats and their big government, yet Republicans are, dare I say it, BIGGER government. They support the Religious Right, which calls for government intrusion, and oppose cautious foreign policy, and support warrantless wiretapping. I have no problem with wiretapping, let's just have some oversight.

  • The Free Exercise Clause states that a religion has a right to function as they may. Now, if a church in California were to do gay marriage, which they refer to as a sacred union no less than regular marriage, that is their religious beliefs, which are protected by the First Amendment. Find one such church in California, and 8 is dead.

  • marriage is a sacred union between man and woman,its clearly stated in the bible.

  • it is perfectly fine for you to live your life the way the bible says. however, as a country based on religious freedom, all people should have the right to live their lives according to their own beliefs. religious freedom means that the christian Bible should not be used to govern EVERYONE. as a christian, it is perfectly fine for you to follow the teachings in the bible. As a human, I follow the teachings of Love and Truth. That is my choice and it should be respected.

  • the world would be better off if everyone lived by the bible.

  • but living in a free country means that it's not for you to decide. you can either accept this, or move out of the country to somewhere like Iran.

  • I dissagree. I'm not Christian and I'm happy. Why should everyone be bound by laws they don't agree with.

    Separatoin of church ans state.

  • it's Gods law,and his laws are what count.

  • Not to 80% of the people on earth. Christianity only account for 20% of the world's beliefs. Why do you feel you have to right to impose your beliefs on everyone else? Religious freedom also includes freedom from other people imposing their religion on you. There's a good reason your personal interpretation of 'God's Law' is not the law enforced by government.

  • why do you feel homosexuality should be imposed on everybody else??

  • First of all, you didn't answer any of my questions.

    More importantly, the fact that you even asked that question demonstrates to self-centredness of most of the 'Yes' debate.

    No
