Marriage is sacred, God created Men and Women to be one flesh.
If you agree, why? If not, why?

Honestly? It's not up to me to "agree" with who anyone else decides to marry.

Marriage is a civil contract, entered into by two people, and I think any two consenting adult people who are brave enough, or crazy enough, to enter into a lifelong contract should do so, without interference from the state.

Not everyone believes in that whole "marriage is sacred" thing. Just look at all the straight people who divorce, cheat on their spouses, and just generally take a dump all over the sacrament of marriage. How sacred is it, really?

And lastly: if you don't "agree" with marriage equality, or your religion prohibits you from considering it, don't marry someone of the same gender. Problem solved.

I believe that the constitution didn't mention marriage, and I also believe that government shouldn't be involved in marriage. If you have to redefine marriage to get included in marriage then you didn't belong there in the first place.

I believe in marriage equality. Two people, if they are so inclined, can and should get married if they wish to spend their lives together as a team or life partner.
Also according to religious texts, men and women are both created as "humans". And they are created from Earth. Modern culture sees men and women as equals (as opposed to women being bought for marriage by exchanging goats and cows).
Marriage is a partnership. Not some "sacred" relationship defined by a religious text.
Why would you expect an old book, written in ancient times, to dictate to you who can be your best friend for life? Don't you have "free will"?

Well, men and women have been tainting the 'sacredness' of marriage for a long time, so I think that argument falls flat at best. But I'd argue that it was never really sacred at all as girls used to be sold off as property to men whom they didn't necessarily love or even like, what's sacred about that?

If you love someone and want to make a lifelong commitment to them then I think that's a great thing. All anyone should care about is that they're consenting adults - everything else is simply personal preference and I think we should embrace love wherever we can find it.

I am ALL for same sex marriage!
A long time ago, I read a letter in the Ann Landers column written by a gay man from a small town in the Midwest who married a woman to hide / deny the fact that he was gay. They had a couple of kids. However, he started having affairs with men. Word got out, and a huge scandal ensued, followed by divorce. It broke his heart, because he really did love his wife; he just loved her like a sister.
He ended the letter by saying, "Ann, speaking on behalf of all gays, this is my message to the world:. LEAVE US ALONE."
Legalizing gay marriage would eradicate this problem altogether.

Setank Setunkposted 8 years ago
The Christian church adopted the idea of fully regulating marriage some time in the 16th century at one of their big Councils. Prior to this marriages were a private or civil matter. Either religious or secular, marriage was the union of a man and women for procreation not Love. However the very churches which deny gay marriages today are the institutions that introduced love, honor, and commitment to the idea of marriage. If marriage had remained an arrangement specific to procreation it would not be an issue today. Religions that sanctify matrimony need to come up with their own word to define the union of a man and women in religious ceremony and let the secular world have "marriage" back. Civil authorities could then recognize both as marriages without trampling religious freedom and without the need to interpret or change laws or define differences between civil unions and marriages. I think a man or a women presumed to be of sound mind and consensual age should be free to marry whomever they choose.

In 60's or so, breast feeding was declared a thing of past and bottle feeding was promoted. When polio cases flared up, the doctors were back promoting breast feeding aggressively. But, what happened? So many human beings suffered for no fault of theirs! And even today, we see polio cases.
Changing one's gender is another chaos that is happening today. God knows what is going to happen of it. Because, nature simply cannot go so wrong.
Here too, in same sex marriage, we just don't know what new illnesses and diseases will crop up which may prove very difficult to handle for the entire humanity.
Often those who stay in Hostels, etc. fall a prey to this. In all probability, a little vigilance or counselling could help.

I am not a big fan of gay marriage, but when the chips are down, it really ain't my business what other people do in their bed room. U might not like what they are doing and disapprove of gay marriage, I don't like it either, but it really isn't our place, to say what they can do and what they cannot do.

As for ur argument of "God created Men and Women to be one flesh" I only have one thing to say to u and it is the same I said in a debate, with religious fanatics, in a debate hosted in the university "Religion is for a person's own spiritual fulfillment only, it is not for us to conduct act of discrimination and persecution upon others and if ur religion leads u to conduct such act, then that religion isn't right for u and u should leave it." In addition I said "The law of a state is there to maintain social stability, to maintain peace and harmony within a society, not to enforce the law of a religion. And just because u don't like the action of a person, it doesn't give u the right to conduct an act of discrimination or persecution upon other. Even if a person choose not to be moral, as long as their action, doesn't disturb peace and harmony, who are we, to conduct act of persecution and discrimination upon them for their immorality and force them to be moral against their will, even if she is a stripper, we are not his/her father, thus it is not our place to say anything. It is unethical to use law, to enforce the law of a religion, to stop people from doing stuff we don't like or even to enforce morality, The law shall be there to merely maintain a peaceful and harmony society." (And if we use law to enforce upon people, morality, don't do things we dislike or enforce a religion's law, even if those act doesn't cause disturbance to peace and harmony, then, in what way are we better then some middle eastern nation that enforce Sharia law or at worse, minus the suicide bombers, in what way are we better then the Taliban?)

In recent years, Christians are dropping in number, in the western world, while Atheism, Buddhism, even Satanism, is raising in number, due to the problematic teaching within the bible and it become obvious even today, the problematic aspect of bible's teaching is creating problems. Many people that convert to Satanism, express the problematic teaching within the bible and despite the bible claim for Satan to be evil, there are no actual record of it, within or outside the bible, instead Satan teach some very good things.

Marriage is whatever a society decides it to be. The legal union of two people is not something found in nature. In nature, we mate, but laws are a human invention.

Since our society is made up of many beliefs, we pass laws so that everyone is accommodated. Other societies make their own rules. The right to marry within the same sex does not infringe on anyone else's rights - they can marry who they please.

Saying that same sex marriage infringes on other people's religious rights is only true if your religion requires that you discriminate against others who don't share your beliefs or that you must force others to follow your religious rules. If that is the case, I believe Iran and Saudi Arabia have those provisions in their laws.

Hi herrypaul! How's it going?

I think Lisa Vollrath is quite right: It is not up to others to "agree" or not agree with same-sex marriage.

Frankly, I don't understand why we don't view gay rights as Rights not susceptible to popular vote. Do you know what I mean?

For example, you may recall that a few years back the state of California held a referendum on the issue. I never got that. To my way of thinking---and a way I think of as "common sense"---the LGBT community should be regarded as a protected minority with inalienable rights---again, not subject to the silliness of a popular vote.

We cannot vote for all blue-haired, freckled-faced people to be or not to be drowned in the Atlantic Ocean...

Part of the problem, in my opinion, is the concept of "tolerance." The problem with "tolerance" is that it contains its opposite: Intolerance. If I "tolerate" you or are "tolerant" of you, I am assuming ownership of social space.

What I'm saying is that tolerance is not a solid basis upon which to build a society; because if I "tolerate" you, I can just as easily, for whatever arbitrary reason, withdraw my "tolerance."

Now, what about the whole "marriage is sacred" routine?

I don't know what to say about that except that, here in the United States of America, we are supposed to have "separation of church and state."

What does that mean?

Well, for one thing its supposed to mean that people do not have to comport their lives in accordance with scriptures in order to enjoy rights of civil citizenship.

They say that God made Adam and Eve,not Adam and Steve. If that is true, it means Adam was bisexual, and Steve was gay. But who made Steve ... if God made Adam and Eve? And if God would have made Eve and Steve, instead of Adam and Eve, there would have been no Cain to kill Able; not in the Earth,up in Heaven, or up in Hell below it.

Here's my take on it from a mother's perspective. If my child is happy and the person
they are with makes them happy. Regardless of my religious beliefs, regardless of same sex, my child is happy then I'm happy.

Now to get a little deeper....

We're questioning same sex marriage, but isn't that what we want any person to do, get married and not fornicate. In marriage you have a partner and that is the person you are to be one with. Marriage is sacred, but how sacred is it? We live in a world where children are being born illegitimate and we're teaching our kids this is ok and that they don't need to get married... But I digress.

Let's dive back into history to fully understand when homosexuality was recorded and how many religious people participated but were not married.

The ancient Greeks had sacred marriages and did unspeakable things with male children that they bought or courted.

The ancient Romans (mostly catholic) did that same (it was socially acceptable and considered natural to have same-sex relations).

My personal feelings - We're already divided as a nation. If people of the same sex want to get married, why not let them. Let's not forget at one point in time people of different races, colors, and religion were frowned upon if not attacked because of wanting to marry the opposite race, religion, etc,. So if we open our hearts and minds, people just want to be happy and in love and if they want to get married well ring the bells ! Be happy!

The real question is why doesn't anyone ever let you know, same sex or not, that marriage is so hard!

The bible clearly depicts that marriage was designed to be between a man and a woman. That being said, this is a very gray area. It can not be summed up with a yes or a no. It a deep rooted controversy that requires grace and its complexities understanding. We are defined by the summation of our parts, and thank the Lord, not by one moment. How can we possibly take something as complicated as marriage, with two intricately designed individuals and add an absolute? It defies all reason to try. Oh if life were just black and white, the sense it would make. That is a luxury that we are not afforded.

Candy crush is the culprit of much of my frustration in life. Countless hours spent trying to advance. Sometimes I get stuck on a level for days or weeks. Replaying, reworking strategies, it is really ridiculous. In the many moments that I have not been able to move forward, I have so wished that the makers of the game had a reference guide. Just a quick flip to the answers. How do I win this level? What is the best strategy to conquer this? How do I overcome and walk away like a boss? The game of life is no different. I need to go to the maker and find the guidelines that answer the same pressing questions. Thankfully, God was a little more gracious than the makers of Candy Crush. He provided a manual. If you play as the game is designed, you will find success. If you follow your own rules, you can still play but you miss living your best life. What does all this have to do with marriage? God had a plan for marriage. He designed it carefully with specifications on how to be successful.

I am a christian. I have 4 gay cousins and I love them dearly. They are good people and they love without hesitation. All 4 have had numerous failed relationships and a line up of heartbreak a mile long. I do believe any relationship not built on the foundation of Christ will eventually fail, that is inclusive to christians in a man/woman marriage who live as strangers. I have found it most beneficial to know the heart of Jesus which is not a law, but a principle of Love. If we exceed our own expectations and see through the eyes of our savior, then we see imperfect people trying to maneuver this life and we see their beauty. God has entrusted us with one another. To care for in friendship. To love deeply. Beloved, acceptance is allowing law to prevail. Instead follow the Golden Rule. Love people in spite of themselves. Joy will abound and the rest won't matter.

I believe that marriage is between the two people who are in love. It's not my place to say that a man cannot marry the man he is in love with, simply because it goes against a religion, or because of some other personal reason. To tell someone they cannot legally be with someone they love because you don't agree with it is putting your nose in something that is none of your business. If two people, of whatever gender, want to be legally bound together because they love each other so much, that's amazing.

Where the rest of us live, the divorce rate is quickly nearing 50%, Spousal abuse AND homicide ( and this is just cases proven in a court of law) is at 21%, Infidelity (cheating) is off the charts and nearly impossible to calculate for obvious reason.(people LIE.....hate to bust your bubble) Add to these activities, the rise in "open marriages" and then excuse me...but what was that word you used?? Sacred? Yeah, ok, you might want to rethink that.
In Biblical times, men had multiple wives....women were treated like non-humans, they were stoned for being what was considered "immoral" behavior. The men could run around doing as they please, such as having mistresses, impregnating their slaves, even INCEST. Now there's a book we should all reference about marriage and morals, don;t you think?

Marriage from the beginning of mankind has been an agreement between a man and a lady which is by its inclination requested toward the reproduction and training of kids and the solidarity and prosperity of the mates.

The promoters of gay or lesbian "marriage" propose something altogether diverse. They propose the union between two men or two ladies. This denies the plainly obvious natural, physiological, and mental contrasts among men and ladies. It likewise denies the particular basic role of marriage: Fulfill Sexual desire in most descent and safest way, the perpetuation of humankind and the bringing up of kids.

When one embodies their higher self into their physical being.... then awakening takes place. That is what is meant John 14 - 10-12

  You might want to take a course in genetics. Humans don't come from ribs anymore (if they ever did outside of a legend). We have genetic codes that control our physical bodies - half from man and half from woman. Some mutations occur.

I personally feel the same way about gay marriage as all non-Christian marriage. The original idea of marriage is to declare yourselves as one person and one with God, so I personally feel that marriage is highly overrated. However, if straight non-Christian marriage is going to be legal I 100% think that gay marriage should be legal, as I personally believe that being attracted to the same sex is one of the many challenges we face here on earth as this is not God's kingdom, and choosing to give in to those challenges and not have a Christian relationship is basically the same as choosing to not follow God. Because of this, I don't believe any of us have the right to not allow people to marry a member of the same sex, as God himself gave us the choice to not follow him, so I personally believe that not allowing others to marry the same sex is putting yourself above God.

It doesn't really matter to me. God made man and man made religion.
There was also a time some people used the bible as their reason for being against interracial marriage. In fact in the U.S. it could lead to jail time in some states in the past. It wasn't until 1967 "Loving VS Virginia" that the Supreme Court struck down all laws forbidding interracial marriage. That's less than 50 years ago!
My guess is 50 years from now same sex marriage won't be an issue.
If marriage was really all that "sacred" we wouldn't have TV shows like "The Bachelor" or "Who Wants to Marry A Millionaire". No one would propose at baseball parks and so forth.
Only the couple can determine if their marriage is sacred.
Clearly divorce rates wouldn't hover around 50% if it were.
Secondly who you love/marry doesn't change my marriage or love life. Gay marriage is not mandatory. No one has to marry the same sex. If it's not illegal to love and live with the same sex or adopt children; why should it be okay to discriminate against marriage?
One heterosexual man's opinion.

Marriage was built for pro-creation. The sanctity of marriage is a protection of society. In the earlier times, it is allowed to marriage direct relatives, because of pro-creation reasons. As the population grew, the genetics are becoming more evidences on deformities, either physically or mentally or emotionally. Anyone who is studying genetics can understand this.... Yes, marriage is for love, but apparently it is for pro-creation, but really it isnt for lust. If it is, then we dont hav any problem dealing on this same-sex thingy in the first place... protection of kids to society because 1.they will be mocked (let's just admit that) 2.they will develop insecurity (let's also admit that) ...same-sex relationships are being prohibited or condemn ever since, because it is just not normal. If you are a guy and you feel woman is that, can you actually and literally explain to me what kind of normality is that? It is like if you're a dog and you said "meow", seriously what will be your impression?... same as same-sex marriages, it is not normal. So yeah. I do not side this kind of union.

In all honesty, marriage is nothing but a title put to a relationship between two people. What matters the most is what that title was built upon. Was there true love upon which that title was built? If yes, then you found the answer right there. I believe that if two individuals love each other then they should have the right to get married and live together.

I know many same-sex couples who are happy with a family as compared to several man-woman couples who got married and then divorced. So the Sex is not necessarily what matters, its whether or not the pair has love and understanding between them!

I don't believe in marriage full stop. It's just a financial arrangement whereby you tie up the assets of two people. Why would any self-respecting gay couple want to imitate an institution that has such an appalling failure rate anyway? Marriage would work better if it were a short-term contract of say five years that could be renewed if successful or dissolved if it fails - but then look at all the cash that solicitors would miss out on! No-one should be bound to someone else for life - gay straight or otherwise. If you love someone, you don't need a silly legal document to prove it.

Marriage is created for closure. Lay down all your sides on it, we marry the person for a reason, holy or not, for love or money, it's just a decision made of by proud decision maker.

Same sex marriage is one of those, they say even though it is already legally accepted it is not moral still. But what do we know of moralities? In my own opinion moralities depends on what you believe in since the moment you were born, it defers with different persons. What do we know of what is right or not? Maybe we could just judge if we already know everything, but we don't, we are not God.

In my religion, same-sex marriage is truly immoral hence, I don't support it at all. But I do respect them and know what our differences is.

I often believe no one would be a laughing-stock if everyone just respect each other.

This question is phrased in a very interesting way. "I just want to know..." Is this a valid motivation for inquiring about a very personal decision two people make for themselves. Also, I wonder if this really is even worded accurately. My experience suggests to me that it could read, "I just want to change your mind if you agree with same sex marriage."

My answer, then, is this. It is none of your business whether I agree or disagree with same sex marriage. If I handed over that knowledge to you, what good would it do you or me? "I just want to know" is not a very powerful way to motivate people to divulge personal beliefs that have no impact on you, the questioner.

22 Then the LORD God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man. 23 The man said, “This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called ‘woman,’ for she was taken out of man.”

24 That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united to his wife, and they become one flesh.

Proverbs 5:18-19
18 May your fountain be blessed, and may you rejoice in the wife of your youth. 19 A loving doe, a graceful deer— may her breasts satisfy you always, may you ever be intoxicated with her love.

Matthew 19:4-6
4 “Haven’t you read,” he replied, “that at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female,’ 5 and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh’? 6 So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.”

1 Cor 7:1-16
Concerning Married Life
1 Now for the matters you wrote about: “It is good for a man not to have sexual relations with a woman.” 2 But since sexual immorality is occurring, each man should have sexual relations with his own wife, and each woman with her own husband. 3 The husband should fulfill his marital duty to his wife, and likewise the wife to her husband. 4 The wife does not have authority over her own body but yields it to her husband. In the same way, the husband does not have authority over his own body but yields it to his wife. 5 Do not deprive each other except perhaps by mutual consent and for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control. 6 I say this as a concession, not as a command. 7 I wish that all of you were as I am. But each of you has your own gift from God; one has this gift, another has that. 8 Now to the unmarried and the widows I say: It is good for them to stay unmarried, as I do. 9 But if they cannot control themselves, they should marry, for it is better to marry than to burn with passion. 10 To the married I give
