It seems like before the big push for gay “marriage”, the common line of thinking was that people didn’t need a piece of paper or a blessing in order for their marriages to be valid.

Nowadays, with the gay agenda and all their efforts, that way of thinking is receding and now marriage is being seen as important, at least by those who support gay “marriage.”

Supporters of this gay agenda claim that gay marriage in no way affects nor harms traditional marriage, which is contrary to reality and the facts. My reply to this has been that it doesn’t affect those who don’t know the importance of marriage to begin with, so naturally they would have a hard time understanding why this negatively impacts traditional marriage.

Furthermore, I want to address a few concerns with someone who’s asked repeatedly for my proof of their statements and I didn’t care to derail the other thread so I started one of my own.
Or you could admit you’re in error, made a false claim, and apologize.

I don’t expect any of that to happen of course.

Well it looks like it’s your lucky day, atheistgirl. I found the thread and your quotes that you’ve been asking for all this time.
Once again, why the presumption of marriage. People can and do co-habit and want to start and raize a family.
Ring a bell? 😉
Wow - massive prejudicial sweeping generalization.

One of my sisters as I mentioned has been with her partner 30 years. Their children were brought up in the most loving, stimulating, safe, caring, nurturing home you could ever find. They are all successful happy well balanced people who are a credit to their family, themselves and their community. They are all successful and happy.

My sister is one of many people I know in this situation, including more of my family.

And if I’ve understood Edwin properly, they’re married anyhow according to the Church. It’s just their marriage is irregular.** They made a vow to each other, and we witnessed it. Just no State or Church involvement. Which means, they’re married**, but irregularly so, according to the Catholic Church.

So they didn’t fornicate either

With my family, and my intimate friends, I know exactly what it’s really like.
You’ve repeated yourself in this thread several times about your belief that marriage doesn’t require State or Church involvement in order for it to be valid. However, you don’t believe that this kind of “marriage” without State or Church involvement is valid when it comes to gays being able to marry. Double think?

So my statement still stands:

You don’t think gay “marriage” has any negative affect on marriage because you don’t care about marriage, or at least see its importance, to begin with.
 
Can you tell me how gay marriage harms others? I don’t know how it does that yet.

Directly:

People get sued for simply disagreeing

It distorts the minds of children who they adopt, blurring the lines between males and females

It distorts the mind of children, taking away from the importance of being raised by a mother and a father

Indirectly:

Desensitizes society

Destroys the fundamental building block of society

But this isnt that kind of thread. I was responding to the poster quoted above and I didnt want to go off topic in another thread.
