Well, to be fair, hell did freeze over last week. I read this earlier and given that I'm from Oklahoma, I choked on my coffee.
I whipped up a very nice treat in After Effects to celebrate this that is almost done uploading in glorious [del]HD[/del] SP because I don't know the fuck why.
Welp looks like I'm off to Madagascar.

[QUOTE=opti2000;43541927]Why is suddenly everyone against gay-marriage? When i said i was against gay marriage on the last news thread about this topic everyone lost their minds and insulted me. :S[/QUOTE] Most of your arguments were based on things that should never be used to determine civil rights. And you were arguing against civil rights with them. That's why everyone lost their shit at you. You were using every single one of the arguments religious assholes are using to deny citizens very real and very important rights. [URL="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sally_Ride"]Sally Ride[/URL], the first American woman in space, came out as a lesbian posthumously, as it was revealed after her death that the last 27 years of her life were spent with her female life partner, Tam O'Shaughnessy. The two were, of course, ineligible to have their relationship officially recognized by the state. Why is this important? In the US, a widow/widower is (usually) entitled to death benefits when their spouse dies, and they have many rights and responsibilities over their dying spouse and their spouse's estate after death. These rights represent things such as decisions relating to keeping someone on life support when they are not expected to survive and even basic hospital visitation rights. When Sally Ride, a [B]heroine[/B] to the American science and space efforts, died, her partner was not entitled to any death benefits. If Sally had been living with a man, even common-law, there would be something there. But because she was a lesbian in a state that would not recognize her rights, O'Shaughnessy got fuck nothing. For being a woman in love with another woman. The civil act of marriage is [B]not[/B] about fostering the procreation of children. The civil act of marriage is [B]not[/B] a religious ceremony. The civil act of marriage in the US is the granting of [B]over a thousand Federal rights and benefits eligible only to adult relationships recognized by the state[/B]. Forget arguments based on "tradition". I want you to tell me why two adults in a lifelong committed relationship cannot be treated the same as any two other adults in a lifelong committed relationship simply because they are both of the same sex. If you reach for faith or tradition in your response now, you are disrespecting my entire post by ignoring it. If that's what you do, don't even bother replying because you'll just bring the hate on yourself again. That's why we did it last time, you were being a dumb shit. Please don't be dumb again and make your arguments like a mature adult.
Funnily enough, Oklahoma is home to one of the largest gay communities in the midwest. [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NW_39th_Street_Enclave[/url] I live a few blocks from it.
[QUOTE=elixwhitetail;43543168]-big argument about gay marriage-[/QUOTE] I want to add onto my argument with one detail: Not a single bit of this argument involves forcing churches to perform marriage ceremonies that go against their beliefs. I kept repeating "the civil act of marriage" because I am referring to marriages in the legal sense. Civil marriages can be and often are performed at City Hall, not a church, and there is nothing religious about it, even for straight couples. [B]This[/B] is what gay people are fighting for. Separate from the civil form of marriage, there is the religious construct known as marriage. [B]This[/B] is a social and ceremonial procedure and is largely symbolic, aside from the fact that it is performed at the same time as a civil marriage. In Canada, we have had gay marriage since 2005. The [B]law[/B] in Canada is that churches may refuse to perform religious marriage ceremonies that conflict with their religious beliefs. Churches cannot be forced to perform gay marriages if they do not want to. [B]Civil[/B] marriages, however, are strictly under control of the government. The only ones who are saying that churches will be forced to marry gay people against their will are those of the religious groups who are trying to ban gay marriage. The pro-gay-marriage movement is not calling for the right to force churches. The Federal government and the SCOTUS are not saying that they want to force churches to marry gay people, even as they strike down laws prohibiting gay marriage. This should tell you something.

When i said i was against gay marriage on the last news thread about this topic everyone lost their minds and insulted me. :S[/QUOTE] wat? Literally no one attacked you in that thread. Every post I saw went to lengths to address every single "point" you had. Stop having a persecution complex.
[QUOTE=Riller;43539325]But if gay marriage gets legalized, what will happen to the families?![/QUOTE] Well, the men will marry the men and the women marry the women. Those who refuse will be put into camps and reeducated in the image of the gay agenda.

You'd have to be one seriously dense mofo not to see that. Though judging by your views on gay marriage you might not be sharpest tool in the shed :v:

All these Oklahoma jokes make me sad :smithicide:
The funny thing is that given the feud Texas has with Oklahoma and the political views of either state, this could be considered a point in Oklahoma's favor or one against them depending on who you ask.
