Hey Folks,
I've been debating posting this, but after talking to a friend about it last night... he brought up some interesting points... much that I agreed with. So it has made me curious as to your take on things.
I am of the opinion that same sex marriages should not be denied simply on the grounds that it is a blatant infringement on the basic human rights of love and liberty. The freedom to pursue love is something to be upheld, not chained with gender qualifers... especially in this day & age when population reproduction no longer carries the onus it once did. Modern medicine and world wide over-population has blunted the inssestant maxium to go forth and multiply. Marriage is not just for survival, status, alliance, or convience...its supposed to be about love.
I believe that by removing the barrier of gender from love and happiness (ideally) we as a race have broken yet another link in the chain of our own oppression ... and the suppression of one another. Religion & Politics should not dictate or disallow the freedom of choice, they should instead guard and uphold the sanctity of a loving union. I know that there are many that do not feel as I do and for various reasons feel that same sex marriage is not a wise precedent to set ... I however must applaud this new evolution of society and sincerely hope it is a step into a brighter future.
