I am far from sheltered but I guess that doesn’t matter.

dude word dude lynn dude eat me.

I guess that is immature; you’re right.

and who uses the word wench? ARRRRRRRRRRRHHGHHH thee a pirate?

and I like my soap box. The rallies and protests have been fun.

Marriage was something adopted by humans (and religion) to identify that bond. With the fact that procreation has brought us this far in the world and beyond with millions of individual characteristics, is truly amazing. Yet if we were Hermaphrodites and procreated like worms, then individual characteristics become extinct and our progression would be nil.

On another hand, to compare Gay rights to the Civil Rights Movement is an insult to all races, not just African Americans. Civil Rights was to give RACIAL equality, not freedom of choice for SEXUAL ENGAGEMENT. What’s next? Are we to allow sexual engagement between an adult and a minor, say around 6 years old? Let us not open the door for more sexual deviation!

To hate the religious movement because of the passing of the law is absurd. Even in ancient Rome, Greece and any other civilization, marriage was between a man and a woman. Even the non-religious of today consider marriage to be between a man and woman. No one says you cannot marry, but to redefine legal marriage is like redefining procreation. Grant it, science is trying to redefine that as well.

I have friends that are homosexual. My sister is a homosexual. I hate none of them. Why do you hate those who voted yes to this proposition?

Please have consenting gay sexual relations with legal partners; but there is no comparison to a man-woman marriage.

I could go on and on, but until you realize that there are more important things in this world to worry about than the definition of marriage, it’s futile. You lost (twice) in a democratic way because someone felt that the people should decide. They decided, and now since you didn’t get your way, you think that aint right and your going to fight it until you do get your way. Well I didn’t vote for Obama, and 57 million people didn’t vote for Obama. So according to the same philosophy, we should take it to the US Suppreme Court and have the elections all over again. . . UNTIL McCain wins. Children act the same way. Please tell me our society is better than a spoiled child and recognizes DEMOCRACY!

I for “One” am against redefining Marriage.

LOL As I was reading, I thought Jesus Christ….what a bunch of whiny dribble….DUDE, I am not even responding to this. Thanks for an insightful, funny retort.

@ JK

As I stated above, I believe Gay Marriage is NOT a CIVIL RIGHTS issue. Same sex couples are afforded their civil rights via CIVIL UNIONS if they so choose. I also believe “marriage”, as an institution was and should be intended to be between a man and a woman. I also get concerned about what I percieve as a slippery slope this represents as it is trying to re-write the consitituon and bill of rights to legislate around sex. BAD BAD IDEA.

And that, is my final word on topic, as it has become nauseating.

Lisa, you may now climb back up on your soap box. Waaaa Waaaaa

Excuses excuses excuses. I was . They were. You should have. You did ME wrong.

YOU SOUND LIKE AN IMMATURE SHELTERED INNOCENT LITTLE WENCH. NOT PISSY. JUST IMMATURE.

Can you stop dudeing us to death. Thanks wench.

I’m a student and a bartender. So, really, my snarkiness is pretty much running wild.

I’m not being snarky. I really want to know.

Just because I am not psychic doesn’t make me an idiot. I didn’t even know that people could post under the same names. SO-WWWWWY.

I mean, seriously, how would I have known that there were two (VAGUELY) like-minded Lynn posting comments on two separate threads, both against gay marriage? Dude, that’s probably why everyone else was answering you in the way they did. They assuming you were the same Lynn would was saying very homophobic sh*t on the other one.

And for your judgement of me, I say fuck you back, for being such a dramatic bitch. But of course, in a kind manner. I don’t know why you are getting all pissy on me. I even posted the comment so you would know what I was referring to. A simple “Oh actually that’s not even me” would have sufficed. Don’t get your panties all in a twist. Oh, and that’s the only thing I said to you, and I apparently, wasn’t even referring to you, so why the anger towards me? You should be mad at other Lynn.

And what’s funny is I actually agree with your “For the record, however, I’m catholic. In catholic school we were taught that we shouldn’t read the bible without a priest t interpret it for us. so I never did.”<< I was raised Catholic too, and that’s what I was taught.

AGIAN. I NEVER SPOUTED ANY RLEGIOUS RHETORIC. I don’t need to hide behind a bible to justify my opinions. And, For people who seem to spend an inordinate amount of time monitoring other people’s comments, you should have seen my recent comment (echoing another “regular’s” commnet who had the same same complaint) that there is ANOTHER LYNN who has shown up recently, and has been posting under “Lynn”.

I wish Beet would add a naming convention restriction on the site so there can be only “one” name used/assigned to one member to avoid the confusion.

Still in all. FUCK YOU.
