In 2022 it should be a no brainer that this should be legal but some people are still against it. How do you feel?
 
I fully support it. Life is short. Happiness is scarce. I believe when two or more people love each other, they should be together.
 
Doesn't hurt me so it doesn't bother me.
 
I've thought about this a lot, and while religious is a big part of why people hate and are bigots, I think part of it is that these people are jealous. Jealous that gay people can be themselves, jealous that they can be happy and care-free. While this is not exclusive to America, it's a common American mentality that 'if I can't be happy, neither can you.'
 
I’m against ALL government endorsed marriage and that’s why I didn’t and don’t support gay marriage. I wanted and want all of government out of marriage. No tax deductions or benefits coming from being married. No government office keeping track of who is married and charging us for the paperwork to get married. I was and am simply against the expansion of government and why I was against it.

Thats for sure, misery loves company.

Agreed. Religion is about controlling people's lives and taking away their rights and claiming "religious freedom" and arguing how their religion makes them morally superior when their actions show the complete opposite.

Good thing religion is optional. Religious people choose to be religious and willfully give up rights in the name of Jesus Christ, amen. :lol:

Atheism has by far killed and not even close killed more people and kept them under tyranny. It’s not even close between the two. And I’m not a believer.
 
I'm not a stranger to these subjects, but I'm for gay marriage.

As an aside, Serafin's got a point there, @MrDawn; just read (a) The Black Book of Communism and (b) Foxe's Book of Martyrs' and then repeat what you said earlier.

I don't promote Communist Atheism. There's different groups of Atheists. Not all of us have the same political views.
 
I am all for gay marriage; love is love, no matter the gender. Everyone deserves to be happy. :)
 
Thats a great perspective to have :grouphug:
As John Barrowman once said ( also an openly gay married man )

Never let anyone dull your sparkle. :hug:
