ディベート Ten Reasons Why Gay Marriage Is Wrong (AKA Gay Marriage Killed The Dinosaurs)

Cinders posted on Jan 21, 2008 at 08:50AM
This is for everyone who recognizes the grave risks of gay marriage. Some suggest gay marriage will merely undermine one of our most fundamental societal institutions, causing countless straight couples to get divorced because exclusion of gays was the only thing holding their marriage together.

But we know better. Gay marriage killed the dinosaurs. If we let liberal activist judges in Massachusetts and California set the course, the blood will run in rivers. Mixed with molten lava.

-----------------------------------------­---­-


1) Being gay is not natural. Real Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, and air conditioning.

2) Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall.

3) Gay marriage will change the foundation of society; we could never adapt to new social norms. Just like we haven't adapted to cars, the service-sector economy, or longer life spans.

4) Straight marriage has been around a long time and hasn't changed at all; women are still property, blacks still can't marry whites, and divorce is still illegal.

5) Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed; the sanctity of Brittany Spears' 55-hour just-for-fun marriage would be destroyed.

6) Straight marriages are valid because they produce children. Gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn't be allowed to marry because our orphanages aren't full yet, and the world needs more children.

7) Obviously gay parents will raise gay children, since straight parents only raise straight children.

8) Gay marriage is not supported by religion. In a theocracy like ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That's why we have only one religion in America.

9) Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at home. That's why we as a society expressly forbid single parents to raise children.

10) Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract.

Well... but like, my dog doesn't talk back to me. Ok, not often anyway. Less than Lars does at any rate...

But then, my dog is a female, so would that be like a double whammy? Gay Beastiality?

Nice. You make so many valid and completely un-hypocritical points. ;)
1年以上前 Cinders said…
Yes, Doc, which is why gay marriage is wrong.

Thank you, tessajanuary.

goodness, i'm so glad to see these all written down. i keep pointing these things out to my hippy liberal friends, but they just don't seem to get it. don't people understand that love is conditional?

ha! we just need someone to come along who actually agrees with all of these

there's no sanctity of marriage period. I think that should change.

lol but good points.

On #3. My generation is actually the first where the life expectancy in the US will go down... yeah. It's a step backwards.
A random but valid point.

And the rest of my comments are pretty much echoes.
If a church (valid legalization of marriage, etc.) is willing to perform the service, then why the heck not?

Oh yeah.... *rereads forum*

#9 is the only point that makes any sense to me.

Come again, greek?

Life expectancy in the US will go down? Do you realize how low it is right now compared to the rest of the world?

And I just cannot fathom how people in love getting married will change that... if anything, life expectancy will go up with more lifemates being content....

Please would someone tell me that this is sarcastic. Please?

of course not. my roommate is super tall, and i swear i've grown 3 inches in the last 6 months just from being around her.
1年以上前 greekthegeek said…
okay i'm confused now?
are you or are you not against gay marriages?
1年以上前 Cinders said…
OK, seriously (BTW, bliss I love you. We should get married.):

The point of this list is to show how ridiculous these reasons against gay marriage are. It's very hard to read this and NOT see how contradictory they are. I mean, really, do you really think that blacks still aren't allowed to marry whites and that women are property? That's what makes this list so FUNNY! Because it's a list of ACTUAL reasons given against gay marriage with a sarcastic rebuttal that points out how ridiculous they are!

I'm sorry if people actually took this list seriously, but I thought a title like "Gay Marriage Killed The Dinosaurs" MIGHT tip you off that it's kind of a joke.
1年以上前 blisslikethis said…
i'm still totally flabbergasted that anyone took this even remotely seriously.

and Cinders, i'd marry you any day.. even if it would be unnatural, profane, sacreligious and illegal in most parts of your country. hell, we might even be lucky enough to raise 6 or 7 immoral, socially unbalanced, gay children who will one day aspire to marry their pets.
1年以上前 greekthegeek said…
sorry :D forgives me?
i would marry my cat also. he's so furry and loving XD
1年以上前 Cinders said…
Awww, it's OK, we love you.

Sounds like a plan to me, Bliss!

deal! are you the wedding dress kind of gal, or the tux-wearing kind? also, i was thinking that all the flowers should be arranged in rainbow colours, you know, to rub it in the face of conformist society a little further.
1年以上前 Cinders said…
Ooh, I love rainbows! And I could go either way on the clothing thing. I look kinda good in a tux. We could both wear tuxes. That would be sticking it to them.

And can we have some gay men in assless chaps in the wedding party? They can be the "Flower Girls." I love me some assless chaps.
1年以上前 blisslikethis said…
totally! and we can have both male and female strippers at the reception! assless chaps all around.. now who should we invite?
1年以上前 DrDevience said…
Psssst Bliss - Cinders asked me to marry her also.

See! the polygamy thang has already begun! ayeeeeee
1年以上前 DrDevience said…

Assless chaps?

i think you should play queen "i want to break free" as you go down the isle! lol
1年以上前 blisslikethis said…
ooh! honey, what do you think? maybe we should make a pick..
1年以上前 dazl said…
Oh my God. I don't care if I'm not invited, I'm showing up anyway.

I'd like to offer my sevices as minister. I shall perform the entire ceremony through the medium of dance. I am also cheap. You can buy me off with finger food.
1年以上前 Cinders said…
I. Love. Queen. It is FABULOUS!

OK, OK, OK, what I want to know is where are we going on our honeymoon and how soon can we get there? Ah! So much to plan, so much to do, so little time!

Wait, why is there little time?

Have we set a date? Oh I'm so dizzy from happiness that she said yes!
1年以上前 blisslikethis said…
we have to wait until after the Fanpoppies. i'm too busy to plan a wedding in the midst of keeping track of all these nominations. besides, only the sexually repressed get married in winter.
1年以上前 Cinders said…
I'm sorry, what do you mean? Do you object to our wedding? You should wait for the preacher (dazl?) to ask if anyone objects before objecting.

A blender will do, too.

And now I'm reminded of the American Dad episode when Roger married a Jew just so he could get a blender before the next Grey's Anatomy episode.
