quote: Because it is unconstitutional. Because despite all the wonderful speeches people will make about how they will be "equal," the reality is that they won't be. In all the states that provide "civil union," not one of them is equal to marriage. Not one. Even though the legislatures promised that they would be. Have you forgotten the lessons from Plessy v. Ferguson? There is no such thing as "separate but equal." By making a distinction, you necessarily declare that there is a difference between the two and if there is a difference, then they can legally be treated differently. The only way to achieve equality is to have a single contract for all. Now are you seriously claiming that the best solution is for all 50 states and the feds to rewrite literally thousands of laws to replace the word "marriage" with the phrase "civil union"? How on earth would you guarantee that? What would you do if a state refused to do so? Would state A's "marriage" be legally the same as state B's "civil union"? We'd have to write a law to declare it to be so. That's the most efficient solution you can think of? No, the best solution is to leave the contract of marriage alone and simply recognize that it applies to all. What's so hard about applying a single contract to everyone? The groundwork has already been established. Everybody knows what it means. Nothing changes and we guarantee that everybody gets the same thing everywhere.
quote: For you to actually believe it. You claim this to be your position, but you never mention it except when the subject of same-sex marriage comes up. I don't see you at the county clerk's office protesting the government involvement in marriage. For someone who thinks the government has no place in marriage, you keep referring to those civil contracts you had as "marriages." I expect you to live up to your own hype.
quote: The same ones you haven't answered for weeks: How does the neighbor's marriage affect you?Was Loving v. Virginia wrongly decided? Was Romer v. Evans wrongly decided? Was Lawrence v. Texas wrongly decided? Rrhain Thank you for your submission to Science.

quote: There's nothing to "correct." Put your money where your mouth is: Go out right now and find someone of the same sex, get massively turned on, and do what you can to eventually wind up in bed with him. When you finally succeed (we can wait through the dating period for you to earn his trust), come back and give us the details of how you got off and how you'll want to do it again and again and again.
quote: When can I expect you for your "treatment," Hoot Mon? I've got the car battery waiting. Rrhain Thank you for your submission to Science.

Hoot Mon responds to me:
quote: But you don't really want that. Oh, you say you do, but talk is cheap. You never seem to make this argument except when the question of equal marriage comes up. You don't talk about your own relationships as "civil unions." Instead, you're whole hog into the civil contract of "marriage." So as soon as you start believing your own hype, then we'll start believing you.
quote: But that isn't your argument (there's that not believing your own hype thing, again.) You want "marriage" for straights and "civil unions" for gays. That violates the Constitution or have you forgotten the lessons from Plessy v. Ferguson? There is no such thing as "separate but equal." By making a distinction, you necessarily declare that there is a difference between the two and if there is a difference, then they can legally be treated differently.

quote: Awww....sweetie, honey, baby, pussycat...you didn't think you were gonna bed me, did you? No, I'm the one with the car battery to cure you of your heterosexuality.

quote: Because that's what the current contract is. Since "separate but equal" doesn't exist and is unconstitutional, the only solution is to have "marriage." See, this is why I keep on saying that you don't believe your own argument. This isn't about granting equal rights. This is about creating a separate, and thus necessarily unequal, contract. Not one state that has a "civil union" has it be the equal to marriage. Not one. Why does it have to be "marriage"? Because no other contract is the same. If you truly believe in equality, if you truly believed your own hype, then you wouldn't hesitate to call it "marriage" because that's what the contract is actually called. Since you don't, it's clear you're simply blowing smoke. Rrhain Thank you for your submission to Science.

Hoot Mon writes:
quote: I'm very sorry about your penis, Hoot Mon, that you have to fantasize about the great conspiracy to turn the world gay. And just because you think the gay men are out for your ass doesn't mean they really are. "Black people shouldn't be allowed to get married. Not yet. Not until it is so well understood that it can be 'corrected' if one should make that choice. I'm afraid I still suspect that if Jane and John Black should raise little Bobbie into adulthood, then little Bobbie would be more likely to turn out black. And I have to ask if that is a good thing for little Bobbie. I don't believe there are enough scientific data on this matter to know what really happens to little Bobbie." If it's a piece of crap argument when applied to race, why does it suddenly gain legitimacy when applied to sexual orientation? What caused yours, Hoot Mon? I'm still waiting for an answer. Did you accidentally see your father naked and you then developed a neurotic hatred of the male body?
quote: So because you can't handle it, that's a legitimate reason to deny rights? Remember, more people were against interracial marriage at the time Loving v. Virginia was decided than are currently against same-sex marriage. Are you saying Loving v. Virginia was wrongly decided? And how many times do I have to directly ask you that question before you give an answer?
quote: Please explain how being gay directly leads to polygamy and bestiality while being straight does not. Considering that up until just now, there was no such thing as gay marriage, how was it that polygamy and bestiality even existed in the first place? It would seem that mixed-sex marriage is the cause of polygamy and bestiality since there has only been mixed-sex marriage. All the polygamists you've ever heard of were all straight, f'rinstance.
quote: Indeed. Why on earth would you bring up polygamy and bestiality in a discussion about sexual orientation? How does being gay lead to such while being straight does not? Be specific.

quote: Because the contract is "marriage." A "civil union" is a separate contract and as we can tell by simple inspection, there isn't a single state that offers a "civil union" that is the equal of marriage. Not one. Since "separate but equal" is unconstitutional, the only solution is a single contract. Since the contract that exists is "marriage," then that is the contract that everybody gets.

quote: Ah, yes...the "refusal to accept bigotry is bigotry!" argument. How does the neighbor's marriage affect you? When gay people get married, exactly what happens to straight couples who wish to get married? Only so many people can ever get married and if we let gay people get married, the straight people won't be allowed to? Be specific. How does the neighbor's marriage affect you?
quote: That's precisely what it makes them. If you want it for yourself but don't want it for others, then you're a bigot.
quote: What does that have to do with anything? How does same-sex marriage lead to polygamy where mixed-sex marriage does not? All the polygamists we've ever heard of were all straight. It would seem that it is mixed-sex marriage that leads to polygamy.
quote: Huh? What does any of this have to do with sexual orientation? How does being gay leads to bestiality and incest while being straight does not? This country has only had mixed-sex marriage and yet there are no end of those who have sex with animals and those who have sex with their relatives. How on earth did same-sex marriage cause this when there hasn't been same-sex marriage? Are you saying that same-sex marriage is so powerful that it bend space and time and cause people from 200 years ago to do things they wouldn't normally have done? Why is it that when you think of having sex with someone of the same sex, you immediately start having fantasies of raping your infant sons and their dogs? What is it about thinking of having sex with someone of the opposite sex that stops those fantasies? Rrhain Thank you for your submission to Science.
