Maine legalizes gay marriage

[Prof Gallows]

Quoting limited to 5 levels deep

I live in a redneck state, a lot of the people here are beyond education.
I'm openly bisexual, and willing to deal with the people who disagree with it.
My parents are mainly the biggest problem, which is the worst part for most people, when someones parents cannot accept it.
So hopefully more states can legalize gay marriage, and hopefully open more eyes.

Ooh it is tough when your parents don't accept it. My mom acts like she doesn't know that I'm gay so indeed its been tough for both of us.

I agree with more states legalizing gay marriage, but I just hope it opens more eyes than causing more controversy in the long run. You know? =o

Yeah, the chances are unpredictable whether legalizing it country-wide would cause more good or bad in the future. No more kids need to grow up having to hide who they really are, adults too.
The fact it's outlawed in states is still not right. People living in those states can't be bonded together where they grew up if it's illegal, and taking that happiness away from them is criminal.

Yeah that is true I agree. I'm sure over time it'll change. Who knows? Maybe if the United States does not model after each other, maybe it'll take a couple of other countries in the world for us to finally accept it, you know?

I'm sure things will get better in the future. =P

Yeah. Even just this one state legalizing it is a step forward, that does prove more people are willing to let everyone be who they are.

Why does any mention of the legalization of gay marriage turn into a debate on the morality of homosexuality? Morality is irrelevant. If you choose to clutch the Bible in your hand and spout phrases like "homosexuality is wrong," or "God hates homos," then I say: prove it. Frankly, the Bible has scriptures against sodomy, but nowhere is homosexuality itself, that is, the love for someone of the same gender, specifically condemned.

But, this isn't a question of moral, or even christian, righteousness. This is a simple matter of human rights. This country was founded on the principles of preserving the rights of its citizenry.

"We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness"

Would you stand in the way of any human's right to be with whomever makes them happy?

Not only do I like your humor, I also like the way you put your words. I couldn't have even said this better in the arguments I made earlier in this thread.

Absolutely beautiful. I think I'm in love with you. ♥ =3

That, was beautiful.

LOL thank you. I'll never forget when my brother came out of the closet. It was really shocking to me to see the opposition to it from people who I actually thought had the ability to think for themselves. It really saddened me to see some people, whom he considered friends, begin to distance themselves from him.

That's the same thing that happened to me when I came out in the 10th grade. =(

I found myself sitting alone with no friends all because I was told that the person who I am is wrong.

I lost friends when I came out too.
It's a shame people distance themselves from someone close just because of one fact.

Remember this: most people who fervently oppose you and your lifestyle, have put absolutely no thought into it. They no more realize why they fear homosexuality, than they know what will happen when they die. They believe what they have been taught to believe, and what they have been told to believe. They are, in essence, afraid of what they don't understand. So rather than attempt to find cause or reason, they resort to blind rhetoric.

Now, you have to do the hardest thing in the world: be yourself, regardless of it all.

I will now, and forever, love and look up to my brother. It was almost as agonizing to me as it was to him when he came out.

You left me speechless. Thank you for these words. I'll definitely remember this.

I wish I could have had a brother like you when I was younger.
My friends had left me, and I had to deal with everything on my own.
I even failed a grade due to how bad I felt my friends had left me.
But I made new ones, who accept it. Which made me believe no matter what, something good can always happen after everything seems lost.

When I came out my friends thought I was going to rape them, but my friendship with them lasted a long time afterwards, they were just more distant, and then something bad happened, and all I can say is never get a crush on your straight best friend.

Yeah, it's bad enough when they distance themselves, but falling for them would most likely make it worse. =p

 

[crakgenius]

Yeah, Mega. That, right there, is the sort of thing to keep to yourself and see to it your friend doesn't hear about. I got a crush on a lesbian friend once... never mentioned it to anyone. I can only imagine if she had found out...


awkwaaaaaarrrrddddd.

 

[angie]

you didn't "win" me hollister i just decided to stay out of it cuz obviously your way too stubborn. so you wont be seeing any more posts from me

Its not that I'm way too stubborn its just whats true for me.

You have nothing else to say so that's why you stopped posting comebacks.

Because the Bible does not say that homosexuality is wrong!

actually im pretty sure i said like a few Bible verses to support that there is places in the Bible where it says it is. If you don't want to believe it FINE. And Marriage was NOT here way before Christianity!!!!! God was, is, and will be FOREVER! He's never had a beginning and he's never going to have an end.

To get back on topic, hooray for Maine!

Different people have different beleifs, so of course not everyone will agree with gay marriage. If your against it, you just chose not to be gay/lesbian. If your with it, you choose to be gay/lesbian. If you don't wanna be gay, dont be, but don't pick on those who choose to be gay. It's love, and if you have strong feelings about someone, whether they bebthe same sex or opposite, you should follow your heart. I myself don't want to be gay but I don't think being gay is wrong. If you like the same gender, good for you. If you don't, good for you.

Hopefully, all the states will allow gay marriage.

Meaning when that ever happens, Im moving to my home country! Yay!
