I don't get it, why do lesbians marry girls that look like guys?

@HenhousetheRed Consensual Sex (Heterosexual or Gay) is not sinful.

Rape is a crime.

People who are concerned about other people's sexual orientation need to get a life.

who gives a shit about your catholic beliefs... who cares what the majority thinks... rights of a minority shouldnt be put to a vote.... did abraham lincoln asked the south to vote and decide if they should end slavery

[thelousyllama]

@midamerica100 You can have your opinion. I shouldn't say "you suck!"

also, no offence, but id be more weary of people who think its justified for people to be set on fire for eternity, and people that the only thing keeps them from murdering and raping babies is that they might miss their little holiday in disneyland up in the clouds....just sayin LOL

[Catlover123445]

no we are saying that because christianity is bullshit and spreads homophobia idiocy and misinformation. time and time again these so called christians have proven to be hypocrites and liars and not the oh so morally superiorers that they claim to be. majority of criminals are actually devoutly religious people u know, as statistics have shown. in my view all the hate and evilness are comign from these religious groups such as yours.

There is no universal "traditional marriage".. Everyone who wants a history of the different types of marriages that have existed throughout different societies, go to my channel and click on: Protecting the "traditional marriage"?

There is nothing wrong with allowing economic full stability to families of same-sex couples. It needs to be allowed actually

@Angeleer8 Yes, all those religions are just homophobic idiocy, along with all other religions. I think we should progress from believing in stone age gods.

[XxrockinmusicXx1]

[pastulioxx1]

@Angeleer8 what the hell?? how do you conclude that ?
