Re: Club Rules

My point is that if a man and woman get married, the purpose is to raise a family.

Bullshit. The purpose of marriage is not to raise a family. That is just stupid.

Also, why can't a same sex couple raise a family?

Two men have no such restriction and should not have a need to focus exclusively on each other.

Your god doesn't think two people can spend their life in love with each other? You are one warped dude.

Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts

"God did it" is not an argument. It is an excuse for intellectual laziness.

Re: Club Rules

Are you saying only marriages solemnized by some religious figures are the only valid marriages? Well fuck you. My marriage is as valid as any other marriage. Marriage is a civil institution. A marriage can exist without any church involvement, but cannot exist without the involvement of civil institutions.

So I guess being really wrong is where you stand.

Re: A Distinction with a Difference

Your beliefs have no effect on reality and evidently reality has no effect on your beliefs.
