Gay Marriage: Is It Love Forever?

Whether Ms Torregrosa is a gay, illegal immigrant remains to be seen. The fact is, homosexuality is a perversion. The dictionary descibes perversion as abnormal. According to various authorities, homosexuals represents 5% of the usa democratic population, which under the constitution, majority rules. Therefore to ban proposition 8 in CA because it has something to do with equal rights is a contradiction in terms. The founding Fathers would be turning in their collective graves at this kind of interpretation of their "by the people for the people" document. I dont think any fairminded person would believe the constitution was intended to include homosexual marriage.

If we accept this latest affront to our social order, then we also have to accept that bigamy, incest, childmarriage and other perversions can be included in our changed social structure as it relates to marriage. As such we are on a clear path to Robert Borks "Hurtling toward Sodom & Gomorrah".

Activist judges continue to invade the constitution in a way that can destroy its original intent and history will be repeating itself in the same way it did with the Eygptians, the Greeks and the Romans, where moral decay brought about their downfall from gretness to mediocrity, corruption and poverty. The USA could well be the most shortlived empire as a result. In the same way as we have a separation of church and state, there should also be an acceptance of moral and religous standard as was clearly intended by the founding fathers during their various deliberation. These were based on judeo/christian values. Muslim, Hindu, Buddism and other religions had little if any part of that scene at the time. So it is a crime against society for activist judges to be searching for every opportunity to discover an i that was not dotted or a t that was not crossed in the constitution and use that as a means for them to make their mark on history. It is time for "we the people" to make our mark!!!

Making an abnormal relationship legal is another step in our becoming an immoral country and lead us down the wrong path.

EDITOR I do applaud that there is an editor riding herd on the comments to prevent the inclusion of hateful awful fights etc. I do worry however about someone having the power to control the input. It seems fair however. HOPE IT STAYS THAT WAY.

All wrong people, marriage is a legally binding contract, and the laws of the states are going to eventually change, you will get your wishes, but you should be careful what you wish for. Lets consider the aspect of divorce, are you prepared to lose assets when the marriage disolves? Are you prepared for the bitterness, anger, frustration, legal costs, court drama etc. that will come with your new found rights? Will you need pre-nuptials that stipulate who gets the house, who paid for what, who gets the child you adopted? Aside from the legal aspects, welcome to the world of marriage, now that the fruit isn't forbidden will life be as exciting?

This is the best article I've read all day.

This is not good for society, and if people were honest with themselves, they would have to admit that there is something wrong with this. Saying that a union between 2 people of the same sex is the same thing as a union between 2 people of the opposite sex who have the potential to produce children is just not true. It is very un-pc these days to admit it, but at heart people know it is not right, and society will pay a high price for it. In countries that have allowed gay marriage, the overall marriage rate is down, and the out of wedlock birth rate is in the 80 percentile rage. This is not good for children, who (studies show) do best with a female mother and a male father (all other things being equal). That isn't to say that there are not some wonderful gay parents, but the very best model for children is the traditional one.

This is one of the most fair assessments of LGBT society- thank you. As I was cleaning my house this morning, that I've shared with my partner of five years, I realized that a piece of paper isn't going to change us. Our private ceremony on Koko Head Summit in Hawaii was our commitment to our God and each other. It would just be nice to wake up and live, work, and just be--in the same country as my fellow American neighbors. Legally, "marriage" gives us rights that "civil unions" don't...namely over our property, our life...OUR LIFE. It doesn't affect people that aren't gay. It's TIME.

Everyone seems to be forgetting that marriage - gay or straight - is about legal federal rights...the right to collect social security from a deceased spouse, the right to make financial and medical decisions for/about a spouse. Until true federal and legal rights are obtained, gay marriage is in name only.

You know for many years people have been fighting for their rights from women voting to freeing the slaves, and now our brothers and sisters who are gay and lesbians. I do believe the constitution says:every man is equal!!!does not say if you are gay and a lesbian it says every man.. Do gays and lesbians pay taxes and work, well yes they do: do they raise children as they should be raised? Yes. We have all kinds who flaunt themselves, gay,straight, purple or green. We have people who go through divorces. To me, no one is any better than anyone else and I think that everyone who wants to get married should be able to .

it's simple; do away with marriage altogether. everyone will have a civil union which will be a legal thing. if churches want to have a religious rite they can do so by their own doctines
