No one Ever said you should listen to the media in America.. as most everyone will agree thats the root of this countrys biggest problems.. listening to other people bitch and moaning about something. personally i think if people spoke what they felt was their views and what they truely felt instead of listening to some jack ass who barely knows what the hell he or she is talking about and just agreeing.. there wouldnt be so many damned retarded issues..

im sorry to go off like that.. but if your going to sit here and say we need to listen to what they fucking TV tells us we need to do... your very wrong..

shit if i listened to what the TV told me to do this winter i'd havel ike 10 gallons of bad milk in the fridge 50 gallons of water in the basement and i' be buried up to my knees in Bread.. Eliza and lixy can both agree with me on that one heheh.. god damn idiot meterologists think they know how the weather will affect me =/

Re: Is a Constitutional Amendment necessary or what?
 

To answer this original question

Yep for sure!

As to my reasoning behind that...well as people seem to be getting a wee bit heated about it...i'll just be keeping that to myself :)

Wow, I never realized that there were so many people at pixies that were soooooo far out in the left wing.

Left wing?? I'm libertarian, not liberal.

Folks, this really is a no-brainer....

Yes, it's a no brainer--it should be permitted.

a) Marriage is by definition the union between a man and a woman. If we are going to allow gay couples to change the meaning of the word marriage, I want the meaning of children changed to include pets, so I can claim them on my taxes.

Marriage is between two people who love each other. No change.

b) Discrimination is illegal, and unjust. Therefore, as proposed a civil union will hold the same legal weight as marriage. It will provide for and force your employer to give your benefits to your significant other, and also provide legislation for divorce, to include division of properties, and alimony.

It's a *STATE* measure. As such it can't affect federal rules. If civil unions were all we had, my wife and I would not be together today.

c) How in the world did this issue become a Bush bashing. He stated his opinion, which I agree with. I might point out that an overwhelming percentage of Americans feel the same way.

Certainly not an overwhelming number.

d) It appears to me that the root of this issue is not when or how gay couples will get equal treatment regarding significant others, but an election year issue to get people stirred up in hopes of taking some of the votes away from Bush.

I don't think it started out as anything to do with the election, it's simply when it wound it's way through the courts. Bush, however, is using it as a means of bashing the Democrats.

F) Aqua, I’m not sure which America you live in, but here in the good ole USA, the major media outlets, TV, Radio, and Newspapers are almost all extremely liberal.

I'm not aware of *ANY* major media outlet that's extremely liberal. They vary from middle of the road to quite conservative.

The only liberal media I've seen is alternative stuff.

A proposed constitutional amendmant banning inter-racial marriage.

Sorry to bring this topic back up to the top but I thought I'd just make a couple of points on the above quote......using a bit of science rather than using a book that could very well be the best selling piece of fiction ever written.

In a recent study of sheep.....yes sheep.....scientists wanted to find out if there was any physical difference between homosexual sheep and 'straight' sheep. It turns out that about 8% of domestic rams demonstrate homosexual tendencies I don't think it's a "life choice" and I'm sure if a 'God' created humans then he/she might have had a hand in sheep too.........anyway back to the results of the tests....

It turns out that sheep with a penchant for boy-on-boy action have smaller ovine sexually dimorphic nuclei (oSDNs) than their straight counterparts. these are nerve cells found in the hypothalamus and amoung other things are responsible for sexual behaviour. The sheep that prefer a good hard shag with a ewe have larger oSDNs packed with more neurons.

The guy leading the study (professor Charles Roselli) said:
"This particular study, along with others, strongly suggests that sexual preference is biologically determined in animals, and possibly in humans. The hope is that the study of these brain differences will provide clues to the processes involved in the development of heterosexual, as well as homosexual behaviour."

Yes I know it's taking a bit of a leap to get from gay sheep to gay humans.

I guess there are two ways to interpret the information:
1. You're born gay and as you grow up your brain alters accordingly reducing the size of oSDNs.

2. You're not born gay but you become gay as you grow up because you have smaller oSDNs than a 'straight' person.

I'm sure those lovely men in the bright white coats will let us know more when they find out.

As for me..........I'm all for same sex marriages.

Ask yourself this.......
Why should a man and a woman be allowed to marry?
Do you suddenly become able to have children if you marry?
Does it suddenly stop you being able to 'be' with someone else?
Does it suddenly make you 'better' than everyone who isn't married?

or maybe....
It gives you some tax benefits. (well I think it used to here not so sure now)
It makes it easier to decide on the surname of your child(ren).
It makes a statement about how you feel about your partner.
It makes it easier to get rid of guys/girls trying to pick you up in a bar ("Sorry hun, I'm married!")
It's a great excuse for a party and a long sex filled holiday.

Well that's enough from me on this subject :D Apologies for typos and speeling mistakes I'm working and doing a crossword right now :D:D

Did someone say sheep? :D

.....yes sheep..... :D

Now there's something we can all get behind!

We will if I can have a hand in it!

i agree with paprclphd
