It never made sense that a homosexual is free to marry a woman he doesn't love but not a man he does. From the out of touch replies here you'd think gay marriage had been made mandatory. Let people enjoy a moment of happiness ffs.


Why on earth are any anti gay marriage views out of touch?

It's out of touch with what most people now think, hence why it's legal.


So I must think the same as everybody else now. Down with the kids n all that sh!t.

You are free to hold your view and I am free to disagree with it.

No sh!t Sherlock. I think I might have even pointed that fact out myself.
It's the out of touch part I don't get.
Your saying what most people think, does that make it right, or trendy or fashionable or...... what??

How can you disagree with it, no one is forcing you to have a gay marriage, just saying that those who want one can have one, thats why I don't understand how you can disagree and still say live and let live.

Well done the Republic of Ireland.
Northern Ireland, which is dominated by hard-line and evangelical Protestants, is now the only country in western Europe which does not allow gay marriage. Impressive that Protestant country can show itself as more bigoted than a Catholic one.

You should check out Islamic countries.

True, but they are forcing people to bake cakes with "support gay marriage" on them.

It doesn't make it right or wrong just legal.

You hold a minority view now. Whenever you're unlucky enough to meet someone as intolerant as yourself, you'll get treated just like the minorities you dislike have been. What goes around...

Minority view, how do you work that one out. Because about 60% of the people that actually bothered to vote, in Ireland, voted for gay marriage. I doubt the whole country voted, and Ireland is a very small part of the world.
Still, all because you think I'm in the minority, should I not be allowed to have an opinion, or a view that is different to yours.
Whatever makes you assume I am intolerant.
And I'll get treated like what minorities I dislike.....!??!?! According to you, I'm the minority. Also please note, I haven't once said I dislike any group of people, nevermind numerous groups. I just think the whole gay marriage thing is wrong.


Is the "what goes around" a question, or the start of a joke?

The majority of the world's population is intolerant then?
Or are they just uneducated? Or maybe culturally dissimilar (that sounds quite nice!)?

The point is that if you make these majority/minority points of argument then you're not really getting anywhere.
Both sides of the argument can get into "I'm more righteous than you and your views" territory.

Demonising others because of their opposing views is intolerant in and of itself. Some people (not necessarily you) think that everyone who doesn't support gay marriage has to be homophobic. That kind of stance makes someone like me feel uncomfortable and unacceptable to some others.
What people should have is an opposition to people's fundamental views, not a person themselves or their rationale/right to believe in something. In many cases beliefs on gay marriage do not have homophobic bases.

 


I ain't got nuthin' funny to say. Sorry.

You say I'm demonising when I've suggested that gay marriage being legal appears to reflect majority belief here - hence partly why it is legal. And that intolerance is a two way street. It's hardly outlandish and unfair to say so. At the same time you have no harsh words for someone who compares gay marriage to marriage with animals and pedophilia. You're waving your finger at the wrong person.

Dunno if he is ... I reckon if he waved his finger at you, you 'd jump right on it!!!!!!

Sorry, but I asked you what makes you think I'm intolerant, what minorities I disliked, what did the whole "what goes around" comment mean.

You have completely blanked this.

My comparison between gay marriages and others is merely my (some might say"poor" attempt to highlight how cheap and unworthy the term/legality of the word marriage has now become. And me asking, where exactly do we draw the line on who should get married?

I have gay friends, shock horror.

I also have gay friends who do not believe in gay marriage, check that sh!t out.

Pushing the boundaries is not always a good thing.

But then who decides what is deemed good!?

The church, should, most definitely not, have to accept this new "law", if it is not something they "preach".
It makes it even more bullsh!t, than the bullsh!t they preach.
