If gays were allowed to marry. What do you imagine the worst case senario to be?
I am a bit curious to know what others think.
1. God will come down with all his wrath and smite the USA.
2. More children will be sexually abused
3. More children will grow up to be gay
4. When straight couples see gays get married, their own marriage will fail
5. Your neighbor might wind up getting married to a goat
6. Your child will see how cool it is and will want to be gay himself
7. People will be pissed off but will get over it
8. Nothing bad would happen
9. Gays would find marriage as boring as straight people do
10. More gay divorses
11. other

I would like to debate this with you but I have one question.**Do you believe that gays are born gay or that environment was a factor?**
Because if environment is a factor then:
6. Your child will see how cool it is and will want to be gay himself
If however you think there is a gay gene then I may argue differently with you.**I have met gays that have said both.**What's your position?

Well I can honestly say that I never chose nor wanted to be gay. As a child very early on, I could tell something was quite different about me, but I wasn't sure what it was. I did have a tendency to like to draw and do artwork. I do notice that a lot of other gays I have met seem to have this in common as well.**When I started to reach my teen years I found myself becoming attracted to boys instead of girls. I tend to think that some children are born with a predisposition for it, but I don't think that is the entire story. I also think that perhaps it may be a change in the mothers hormones that effect the growing fetus at a certain time during its developement. I am just guessing about that. because I really don't know how it happened. All my brothers grew up to be straight and we all grew up in the same environment. I was never abused. I never met another gay person growing up. Growing up in the deep south from a very conservative family, homosexuality was never discussed. When other guys were getting crushes on girls, I felt nothing.
I think I will ask you the same question. Maybe it will make more sense. When did you realize you were straight? Did you know from an early age? Did you make a concious choice to find girls attractive or did it just feel natural?**Do you feel that you were born heterosexual and that it was genetic for you? If you think it was a choice, or someone persuaded you to be straight, do you remember it?

I remember being 3 or 4 and being interested in girls. I played "show me yours and I will show you mine" at age 4. My mom went nuts when I was rolling naked with a naked girl in a bed. We didn't know what we were doing but I knew that boys and girls did this kind of thing. Maybe the TV game me this idea? Maybe it was something I saw from my mother and father.
My guess is that it's not genetic. My guess is that at some very early age a child gets a tendency. Also it's my guess that those who become gay may simply be uncomfortable around girls almost to the point of a paranoia which triggers something. When sexual feelings then occur they go toward the sex they are either comfortable with or intrigued by.
As a father of 4...I know my kids 100% follow my example in MANY things. They do things they see on TV or do things their friends do.
If a gay gene is found do you think you can be "fixed" with gene therapy? If it's a gene then is it a mental defect from birth? I am a darwinist in my beliefs. If by chance homosexuality is something to end that person gene pool by eliminating procreating...then that may explain a "gay gene". It's a part of my logic and reasoning that I don't believe gay couples should marry nor have kids. I am not against my friends...I am more against the philosophy of homosexual lifestyle. It doesn't fit into my neat little reality I have disillusioned myself with.
From Wikipedia:
Social Darwinism
Main article: Social Darwinism
In 1944 the American historian Richard Hofstadter applied the term "Social Darwinism" to describe 19th- and 20th-century thinking developed from the ideas of Thomas Malthus and Herbert Spencer, which applied ideas of evolution and "survival of the fittest" to societies or nations competing for survival in a hostile world. These ideas became discredited by association with racism and imperialism. Though the term is anachronistic, in Darwin's day the difference between what was later called "Social Darwinism" and simple "Darwinism" was less clear. However, Darwin did not believe that his scientific theory mandated any particular theory of governance or social order. Indeed, he believed that sympathy should be extended to all races and nations.
The use of the phrase "Social Darwinism" to describe Malthus's ideas is particularly disingenuous, since Malthus died in 1834 before the inception of Darwin's theory was spurred by his reading the 6th edition of Malthus' famous Essay on a Principle of Population in 1838. Spencer's evolutionary "progressivism" and his social and political ideas were largely Malthusian, and his books on economics of 1851 and on evolution of 1855 predated Darwin's publication of the Origin in 1859.

My guess is that genetics might play a part in it. But since Homosexuality has been found existing in human history as far back as at least Alexander The Great and maybe beyond, I would suspect the gene must have been important in our evolution or else it would have been lost long ago. In the same way that one gene for sickle cell anemia from one parent protects blacks from getting malaria, a double dose from both parents makes sickle cell anemia. Perhaps it is the same with a possible gay gene. If you get one from one parent it helps you in some way, both get it from both parents and you would have a gay kid. it would make sinse when you see one gay kid in a family and the rest are straight. Kinda like a roll of the dice. There are a lot worse things in life than being gay. I have two brothers that are retarded and one who is straight but has a big drug problem and can't hold down a job. At least he gave my mom grandchildren. I turned out to be the more independent and adventurous one.
However kids become gay, I really don't think it is something that can be controlled. And I certainly don't think any parent intends for their child to be gay, it just happens some how. I certainly don't think a gay parent would want his kid to be gay either. Even gays want grandchildren. And they don't want their children to have to go through the hardships of growing up gay as they did because being teased was not very fun.

I would like to debate this with you but I have one question.**Do you believe that gays are born gay or that environment was a factor?**
Though there are almost always environmental influences, there isn't even debate anymore between biologists as to the answer to this question.
Sexual preference has a very strong, proven congenital component (NOT genetic - this difference is key).**Genes determine what it's possible to do congenitally, but enviromental factors in the womb are the main influencers.
Take a female fetal mouse.**Inject her with an androgen during a very specific 3 day window of development.**When that female mouse is an adult, she will ALWAYS attempt to mount other female mice and NEVER let male mice mount her.
Birth order studies, neurological morphology studies and studies done with WWII birth records confirm these findings. If anyone wants references to these studies, say the word. They are primary journal articles, which makes 'em pretty thick.
The science is very, very clear.**There is no debate about this in the scientific community... most people just don't know the science.

I haven't read the study, but it sounds pretty reasonable. Parents always wonder what they may have done wrong in their child rearing to produce a gay child. I really don't believe that it is anything that someone does or says to produce this outcome.
On a personal level. I really don't see it as a disease any more than being left handed is a disease. Its not like a handicap where you need medicines, special devices or operations to function. It is just different.

On a more personal level. I don't think anyone should get married. I wouldn't do it. Its a lot easier just to live together. Weddings are just too damned expensive and I hate dressing up. I also can't imagine being able to make a promise to remain together till death do you part. How are you supposed to know how you will feel about that person after 20 years?**And if you got divorsed, that would be an expensive nasty affair. Stuff like that make me glad that I am gay and don't have to have problems like that.
If people want to defend marriage, then they should outlaw divorse. If someone knew that they would actually be stuck with someone till death do you part, perhaps they might put more thought into getting married in the first place. Might see a slight rise in the murder rate though.
In some ways I feel thankful that I am gay. I never had to worry about getting someone pregnant. No one can ever accuse me of being a deadbeat dad, nor will I ever have to pay child support. Since I don't have a family to support, I have more money to help my mom in her old age. If you are monogamous and don't do drugs, there is really no reason to worry about catching AIDS.

I don't think Elrathin's statements were in any way childish.
I found a great summary article on the history of human sexuality research.**Now this is a secondary article, so not as authoritative and passed through one more filter.**BUT, it's much easier to read.
Here it is:
http://www2.hu-berlin.de/sexology/GESUND/ARCHIV/LIBRO.HTM#Y87
A couple interesting passages:
But what biological factors are involved? Currently there is a vast and growing literature documenting a hormonal influence on gender behavior and the impact of prenatal h ormones on the brain.
Diamond holds that the growing physiological data are impressive. He has argued that prenatal hormones exert influence on neural pathways and the neural endocrine axis (the link between the hypothalamus, the pituitary gland, and the other endocrine glands). These neural pathways control future hormonal production and consequently influence sexual behavior. He has argued that there are separate neural pathways for sexual identity as a male or female, sexual object choice, sexual pattern for maleness or femaleness, and the sexual response pattern.61

Your point is valid only if:
1) Sex is only for reproduction.
2) You, personally, don't engage in sex for any reason other than to fertilize an egg.
3) You, personally, don't engage in any sex act other than intercourse and then only often enough to impregate a woman.
Since sex is definitely has purposes other than reproduction and I bet you aren't a saint in the sack, your point is hypocritical.

As for perversion, that is all relative to society and is not absolute. It used to be "perverted" for blacks to marry white people. That has changed as well.

Now to point out a very simple fact when perverted homosexual engage in sexual intercourse both perverted homosexuals only use the same sexual organ. It takes two sexual organs from people of a different sex to reproduce.
So you said:
It's impossible for homosexuals to reproduce.
Because it's impossible for homosexuals to reproduce, their behavior is a perversion.
So your reason for calling homosexuality a "perversion" is that it doesn't result in reproduction.
What I, and most rational people, see from your argument is that ANY sexual act that doesn't result in reproduction HAS to be catagorized as a perversion, or your argument is self-contradictory.
Again, your wife's handjob doesn't result in reproduction, so it HAS to classified in the same way as homosexuality, if childbirth is the measure you've chosen to use.

It's impossible for homosexuals to reproduce.
Because it's impossible for homosexuals to reproduce, their behavior is a perversion.
It is pathetic when a defender of the perversion of homosexuality must attempt to provoke a fight to get a person banned.
You defender of the perversion of homosexuality cannot even quote people properly!

Tip: If someone gives you rational, logical reasons for something, attacking the person is considered an ad hominem attack, is logically invalid and will get you sanctioned by any fair moderator.

Homosexuals can and do have children everyday. Closeted homosexuls can marry the opposite sex and have children, also in order to have children, gays and lesbians will concieve a child together, or they can donate sperm to sperm bank. Homosexuality doesn't make you infertile, It just lessens your chance of having sex with the opposite sex. For those who condemn the ones who have sex and are infertile, you are also condemning heterosexuals who are unable to concieve, people with downs syndrone, women who have gone through menopause. Condemning homosexuality because of a fertility issue is a very poor argument.

Gee if I remember the closet perverted homosexuals that do this did it to hide their perversion. And how did these closet perverted homosexuals do this? They had sexual intercourse with a female. Yes**they had heterosexual sexual intercourse to have a child.
Donating sperm to impregnate a female is still heterosexual reproduction, not homosexual reproduction.
For those who condemn the ones who have sex and are infertile, you are also condemning heterosexuals who are unable to concieve, people with downs syndrone, women who have gone through menopause.**

I didn't compare anyone to anyone else. You seem to be stuck on non-reproductive sexual acts being a perversion so I asked if you apply the same logic to heterosexual couples.
You still haven't answered that question though. You instead asked another, "What is the one reason perverted homosexuals cannot reproduce? It is simply impossible!"--to which I would reply that many of the heterosexual couples who can't conceive a child through sexual relations also don't because it's 'simply impossible' for them.

So the arguement is:
The govt shouldn't endorse a bonding that can't produce kids naturally?
That homosexuality happens through natural means in the womb, but not genetically though DNA?
It has gotten off subject and after reading about 11 pages where only a combined total of 2 pages of posts are on target, I'd like to know where we are at.
I haven't voted because the best option isn't there. I'm not sure, but I'm somewhere between the slippery slope of allowing any adult to marry any other adult(s) and the opinion that it isn't exactly the best thing to promote in a society.
But the 'born with it' raises a question. If a test is deveoped that can show that you'll have a 99.9% chance of having a baby that will be gay, would that be an acceptable reason for abortion. Would the religious begin to favor abortion or would the left begin to go against it? Maybe a little of both.

Wow, its really disturbing that someone would even consider killing their baby because it was gay, but you raise a valid point, some of the posts ive read on this site definitely point to the likelyhood that some of you might serious entertain that thought, and lets face it you do represent a quantitiy of American mindsets. What if they did legalizing aborting gay fetuses, and after a few years they realized that their gene research was unfounded and there is no way to predetermine a childs sexual affiliation? Talk about a a buzzkill! regardless there is an interesting book called the "The Velvet Rage", it talks about parents instinctually knowing that their child is gay, producing a father who tries to be overly masculine, and mother who sweeps in to protect. Not prize winning material, but an interesting spin.

People do it for economic reasons, for disabled reasons, and just because they want to reasons.**I don't see why they wouldn't because the kid would be gay.
This argument is beside the point.
There is no "gay"-specific gene, because homosexuality is congenital. Genes can give tendencies toward or against the likelihood of homosexual preference, but most of the determination happens after fertilization, in the womb.
Homosexuality is mostly an environmental effect... the environment being the mother's uterus and androgens doing most of the effecting.
Again, this is evidenced by birth-order and twin studies.

How is it beside the point?**False creed and askgate are arguing that it is in the genes. If it their theory is true, then it happens in the womb......as you are arguing. That's when you have an abortion.
Ok......whos'e hiding the quote feature?
