If it's a crime against humanity to tell people how to live their lives, then it's a crime against humanity to have governemnt.

so you're gonna tell me it's not against humanity to to TELL 2 people how to live their lives?
in politics there are people who believe that God did not want to have 2 people of the same sex exchange vows
first of all everyone might not believe how they do, and how come them saying it's wrong to do is the the law?
if these people are going to be spending time alone with each other, and more than likely LIVING together - where is it's someone's business to tell them that they CAN'T get legally married? as if these people making the laws were somewhat "worried" about these other peoples living situations, they're the gay ones if u ask me

That's true. But are you saying that it is okay to have a political view as long as it isn't influenced by religon? But it's the same as someone who doesn't beiilive in gay marriage because that's how they were raised or because they were raped by another man. In the end everyone is entitled to their own opinion regardless of how they came about it.

All you really need to do is look at the nations that have the most religious influence on government and see how theyre livin. The whole middle east is at war 24/7. 3rd world nations who form any inkling of democracy around whatever kooky religion they got often never rise above killing infidels in the middle of their shitty ass little town. it may help ppl on an individual case, but religious views and laws applied to a democratic society always results in violent turmoil; or to the opposite, watered down religion (like America)

exactly, u just proved my point, if ur gonna use religion in THAT manner about the gay marriage laws, then why ARENT the gays and lesbians able to do if their opinion and belief is so validated?
I have a feeling ur taking this as a personal attack on religion, I'm just trying to prove that using religion in politics and pushing it to persuade votes and in some cases it IS taking away peoples rights
if someone wants an abortion, why can SOMEONE ELSE tell them they can't?
that's what some people wanna do, some people want to ban abortions.... and saying God doesn't want abortions because that's your belief is selfish as can be.... these weirdos for some reason want unwanted children in this world to bring more chaos with less morals
and I find it hilarious how most people who claim to live the religious way are complete dirtbags when it comes down to being a human being
