		<description><![CDATA[You cant defend this point against me. 

Telling me its good and right and natural for gays to be gay and get married is like telling me that pigs can fly or that the world is flat. 

No matter how long you try to surgically add wings to the pig to make him fly you&#039;ll fail, pigs werent made by god to fly, just like guys werent made by god to marry other guys.

Next thing you know though, youll post back saying prove it that the world isnt flat.....and i&#039;ll say great comeback.

Thanks in advance......]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[CHC36 said-

&quot;and don’t say its the Devil who is also present in the world, because I can counter just as easily and tell you to prove that it wasn’t Satan’s hand in shooting down the law, because you can’t. Nobody can.&quot;

Actually sir, I can, and will. right here right now.

If you had ever taken the time to read the bible, which is gods word to us, you would know that gods word tells us that being a sodomite is a sin. In black and white print, its been there for thousands of years. So im sure if you fnd time to actually research before you post again the book will be still be waiting around for you to get to it.

That&#039;s a pretty big leap fom me saying god stands behind his word to you saying i said god killed japan. A slight stretch I&#039;d say. Nice try on changing the subject and twisting. Valliant effort sir. Address me head on. No new topics mid paragraph please because you are being crushed by the truth. Stop squirming, it&#039;s unbecoming.


Did you realize that god destroyed the ENTIRE WORLD by flood, save those that were in the ark.

Ever heard the phrase the wrath of god?

And for the record, satan rules this world currently, until he is thrown out by God. So to say the devil couldnt wreak havoc on the workd is naive. It&#039;s flat out wrong. He steals, kills and destroys. And he also loses in the end. The story has already been written and is playing out now. 

Did God or satan cause all of these natural disasters? Who is to say.....but I can tell you that being gay is surely a sin, and sin brings a curse and if your cursed bad things happen. 

Anyway, it WAS gods hand in taking down that law. hello? Gods word is clear on this matter. It&#039;s a sin. Cut and dry. Now you know.]]></description>

&quot;Why can’t they get married? What do you care what a couple of sinners do? &quot;

Honestly, i dislike this sin more than most, i admit. having said that, I wouldnt stand in the way of an individual doing what he wants as a person, my problem is when sinners want the gov&#039;t to co sign their activities. They want the gov&#039;t to tell them what god wont, that it is ok to live in sin and this country agrees with that way of life. That brings a curse on the country. True story.

Next-


&quot;Are you worried that its going to rub off on you? you might catch the gay?&quot;

Sorry toe4, it doesnt work like that....much to your dismay I&#039;m sure. 

last thing, not probably going to burn, definately, if they continue being sodomites.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[League MVP,

Here is the kicker to your argument, the debate you so greatly cherished.

You are right.  Completely.  Being gay is entirely unnatural, a sin and these people are probably going to burn.

Now that I have ceded your point answer me this.

Why can&#039;t they get married?  What do you care what a couple of sinners do?  

Are you worried that its going to rub off on you?  you might catch the gay?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[First off, there is no &quot;right&quot; for guys to marry guys. Its your right to live in filthy sin if you want, but it isnt your right to have the gov&#039;t recognize you as normal. You arent normal. thats why they call you &quot;funny&quot;

Just be glad you live in america pal, go to iran and you and your boyfriend will go missing in the middle of the night...is that ignorant of me to say? how do you feel about that &quot;conflicting opinion&quot; on how to treat deviants?

Next,

Your only comeback to me is &quot;artificial insemination&quot;? really?

If being &quot;funny&quot; was natural and &quot;right&quot; procreation would happen naturally pal, like how grass grows or how pollination occurs, all natural, natural like a man and a women having a child.

And doesnt the word &quot;artificial&quot; mean anything to you? kinda like &quot;fake&quot;?

The reason my experiment proposal doesnt sound too bright to you is because the only answer to the question it poses is an answer you refuse to allow to part your lips. 

And anyway, art. insem. is cheating, the experiemt is to see if you deviants can be deviants and not need the opposite sex for anything, try to live like a man and a women would live, since being deviant is as normal as a man and a women in your mind, try it out smart guy. tell me where it gets you charlie. I already know, you do too, thats why you are still posting a week later, furious as ever. 

And since you&#039;re a historian, im sure you have taken the time to read the oldest, most read book on the planet end to end.....im sure. dont know the name? I&#039;m not shocked, &quot;historian&quot; hahaha.

last thing, you arent pleasantly surprised because your british, its because you sympathize with deviants on the highway to hell. enjoy.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This Leaguemvp fella never heard of artificial insemination then? Doesn&#039;t sound too bright really. If everyone was gay (including you boyo) then I imagine it would be strange, but it wouldn&#039;t destroy the human race. Simple as that.

The other one, vomitingliberals, well he sounds like exactly what he is, a lunatic. Also as a historian I find his desire simply not to read history books he doesn&#039;t agree with particularly stupid. If you only read books that reinforce your own opinions on a subject, how do you intend to learn anything? How do you challenge your preconceived notions? I know the answer, it is that you don&#039;t, you just consider yourself right and don&#039;t have the mental capability to deal with conflicting opinions.

Don&#039;t worry though America, you&#039;re doing better than we or anyone else gives you credit for. As a British person I was pleasantly surprised by the post ratings, seems to indicate that maybe those that shout the loudest don&#039;t speak for you all.]]></description>

For real, though, even if it was- it doesn&#039;t matter. We&#039;re not the United States of Christianity. We&#039;re Americans. We have a Constitution and (supposedly) freedom. We&#039;re not robots who follow what a few writers (mind you, King Henry VIII was one of the re-writers of the Bible- you wanna follow his example? I didn&#039;t think so). The Bible isn&#039;t a book of laws, and even if it was, it is a terribly supported one as it all falls back to a deity that, whether or not we believe in him, we have no proof that he exists.

To put it bluntly for you: If you are quoting the Bible, you&#039;re wrong, according to our Constitutional rights. Period. On top of that, you have NO grounds on which to base the laws by which the Bible says you have to live. Again, we have Separation of Church and State. The Bible cannot legally dictate what our laws permit. That, coupled with the fact that gay marriage hurts, displaces, violates, or-any-other-stupid-excuse-you-have NO ONE... We have no choice but to legalize it. Marriage isn&#039;t a union between a man and a woman. It&#039;s a union between two people.

Look it up in a real dictionary. Not your book written by a man who killed numerous wives for not giving him a son.]]></description>

from league mvp, but you guys avoided it like he knew you would so i again pose these simple, yet for you, unanswerable and maddening questions-

Quick question, how did aids spread so quickly in the early 80′s. Anyone gay guys have any ideas?

Why do you guys think the majority of the world considers being gay immoral, a sin?

Why is it specifically mentioned in the bible as a sin against god and man?

Before you discount the bible, remember, this is the oldest, longest lasting, most read piece of literate EVER. IN THE HISTORY OF THE UNIVERSE. please tell me.

If being gay is natural, why cant men reproduce with other men? women with other women?

enlighten me please, if you can.

___________________________________

Exact reason your view is worthless, you latch on just because people have thought this for a long time, without actually doing anything thinking for yourself. The bible was written by humans who wanted to control people. Its been changed, translated, and exploited by stupid people for thousands of years. 

How old do you think the earth is? 

Do you believe in life on other planets? Over the billions and billions and billions of galaxies, each containing billions and billions and billions of stars, which could then contain planets. Why do you think ours is so special? Let me tell you something its not. We are a drop in the ocean to the rest of the universe. We are the equivalent of some ant  colony in africa youll never notice. 

There may be a creator, none of us will ever know. But he certainly didnt want a bible and he certainly wouldnt hate science as you christian morons and retards do. As always though you will be left behind with evolution, its just taking too damn long. 

&quot;Quick question, how did aids spread so quickly in the early 80′s. Anyone gay guys have any ideas?&quot;

this was a hilarious statement from you. Why is AIDs in Africa spreading? Ill give you a hint, its not because of gays, its because christian lunatics like you and the Pope denounced condoms, with the Pope actually saying on a trip to Africa once, &quot;youre more likely to get AIDs with condoms.&quot;(look it up)

<p>I applaud this guy for taking a stand &#8211; I&#8217;m sure his stand will even generate controversy in his own locker room.</p>

Nobody cares.  Perhaps if this issue was even remotely related to football, somebody here would.  What&#039;s next?  A post on how each player around the league plans to vote in 2012?]]></description>
