The problem with this issue is there really is no safe ground to compromise on this issue.

Whether or not homosexuals can legally get a "common-law marriage"- the marriage will not be given equality to the religious "rite" anyway. If that's what you're hoping for, it probably won't happen: homosexual marriage will still be held somewhere in between heterosexual common-law marriage and interracial marriage on the religious list of faux pas[SIC]. Plus, many religions do not accept federal funding anyway- about the only way to pressure them is to take away their non-profit tax exemptions- and even liberal Democrats are hesitant to do this because of the many social programs that churches help to sponsor outside of their anti-abortion, anti-homo goals.

I believe that it should be okay to grant common-law marriages to homosexuals, but it should be up to the state legislatures (not the courts) to determine where and when this will take place. Whether or not homosexuals can legally get "married" will not change the opinion of others that state laws should be determined by the state legislatures of each state.

I do not like federal judges stating that "if Law A is unconstitutional, then Law B should be immediately implemented"- that is circumventing the responsibility of the state legislature. As it was with integration- it is still up to the state legislatures where and when the law should be changed.

As a Christian (and a friend of several homosexuals- OH MY GOD I AM SUCH AN ANOMALY) it is not my place to either condemn or condone said practices; so I will not.

Not a bad compromise.

those gays and their marriage, see how the world will come to an end because of them ? We should emprison them all...

wait i'm gay...

and i'm married... Run, i'm the one who will terminate your way of living !


so seriously, i married my wife after canada pass it's own law, and frankly nobody seems disturbed about it. We couldnt not have a religious marriage (we are both catholic, and they kind of having a trouble with that) so we had a wonderfull marriage in a courthouse in front of a judge. So everybody religious rights were respected.

Those trumped up, self righteous, homophobic, intolerant scum.

Part of me is saying that this has to be satire or something. I mean it sounds like something you'd hear on a radio station on GTA.
I was trying to come up with something other than speechless rage, but you seem to have hit the nail on the head there sir.

I can hope it is a very clever satire. Someone may need shooting if it isn't.

... Um, what? So parents are teaching their (gullible) Kids that being gay is so horrible that you must repress your inherent sexuality, personality and genetics? Thats like saying that being tall is a sin and that you should cut off your fucking legs because god says its evil...
As a kid I was in super Christian family and was heavily filtered. Television was filtered, friends were filtered, as was school (religious schools are awful). Praying three times a day and church every Sunday. It's very easy to just take in everything they say.

Luckily for me I found the Internet aka free information and now I'm the angriest atheist of them all. Feels good man.

If people are so into the sanctity of marriage they should logically be pushing to make shows such as "Who Wants to Marry a Millionaire?" and "the Bachelor" illegal. Divorce should be their number 1 enemy?
I was just about to say the same thing. I mean seriously, it's okay for two people to basically be forced together by popular vote or simply marry each other for the money without actually having feelings for the other person, but two people of the same sex wanting to spend the rest of their lives together is an abomination?

I have to resist the urge to seethe...

Come to Canada! We love gay people! In fact, we love everyone!

Seriously, It has nothing to do with their religions that I don't like these people, but what the fuck is it there business? Honestly.

Take away our freedom? So 2 people loving each other and marring is taking away OUR freedom? My gosh these people make me lose every single hope for humanity. How can a world of understanding and peace exist when these fuckers are around?

I just have to say that making a video of this type on YouTube that links back to their site was the first totally ignorant thing these people did.

The video itself is the second totally ignorant thing they did.

And finally, the fact that they don't know WTF they are talking about ("I'm a doctor and I'll have to choose between my faith and practice" oh, bullshit - you don't have to help gay people now WTF does gay marriage have to do with you chosing anything) proves to me that the anti-gay marriage people are facing a moment of desparation.

There's so many other real issues to worry about, other than gay marriage. What idiots.

Actually marriage isn't a Church tradition. The "Bonding" of 2 people as practiced long before the church game into "use".
