Ted Cruz Says SCOTUS 'Clearly Wrong' to Legalize Gay Marriage

[DukeU]

Yet you it is what you all are pushing. Weird

Another swing and miss.

 

[DukeU]

I assumed you would be unable.

 

[Faun]

It has nothing to do with the contract at hand, nor the historical fact that marriage has always involved both sexes in some way until recently.

For a long time in this country, it was illegal for a black to marry a white in some states. Your logic means it should still be illegal.

 

[Papageorgio]

Only a matter of time before the TRUMP court strikes down same sex marriage

The only question is will they just overrule it or start by allowing business to deny service for “religious reasons”

Like marijuana and abortion, marriage is a states issue not a federal issue.

 

[Faun]

SSM and heterosexual marriage are not the same thing. We can allow both to use the same word, but they are not the same. One has millennia of precedent, the other is a recent creation.

Of course they are the same thing. They are both just marriage; a legal contract between two consenting adults and/or minors of the age of consent with parental approval, recognized by the state.

 

[Faun]

It is not productive to a society, for one thing. They cannot produce children, obviously. And the children they adopt/graft in or whatever....the science and that data are ironclad: children do best when raised in a home with their biological, married parents.

That is not to say that these two women don't have a right to live together, nor even to declare each other next of kin, beneficiaries, etc. They do, and they have a right to live peacefully. But society should have no pressing obligation to advance such unions. They are at best neutral in benefit.

That's not hateful. It just is.

Your logic reads people who cannot have a child due to a medical condition should not be allowed to marry.

 

[Papageorgio]

He actually believe this stuff.

Marriage: As Solicitor General, Ted Cruz led the charge to deny Texas couples marriage equality. In the Senate, he has supported a constitutional amendment that would prevent the federal government from recognizing marriage equality and an amendment placing members of the Supreme Court up for election. He even said that Justice Anthony Kennedy should resign and that the Obergefell ruling threw the Supreme Court’s “very legitimacy into question.” He has said a ruling in favor of marriage equality was “fundamentally illegitimate.” Cruz has promised to campaign “front and center” on his opposition to marriage equality.

2024 Republican Candidates

This November anti-equality candidates from coast to coast, up and down the ballot, will ask voters to elect them to jobs with immense control over their rights and freedoms. That's why HRC is sharing what these candidates’ actual resumes look like - because voters deserve to understand what’s...

Oh he is so religious he probably cheats on his wife and incest his children, we don't know whatever he does.

And the things you accuse Cruz of doing, you are more than likely doing. Seems to be the way it works with people like yourself.

 

[Faun]

Can you point to something that says it's not?

It's the same as butt sex in that it's not heterosexual sexual intercourse. It's just another hole to fill.

So other than being a different hole, what's the difference between anal sex and oral sex?

 

[Faun]

Figure it out dude. I can't draw but so many pictures in a day, and today I'm done.

LOL

If there was a difference other than it being a different hole, you could have easily explained. Instead, you just showed the forum your position on the matter is rooted in bigotry.

Like marijuana and abortion, marriage is a states issue not a federal issue.

This would be true if the Fed Govt did not tie benefits to marriage.

 

[Harpy Eagle]

Your logic reads people who cannot have a child due to a medical condition should not be allowed to marry.

Not to mention how insulting it is to anyone that has ever adopted a child, telling them they are lesser parents because they are not the biological ones.

 

[Papageorgio]

This would be true if the Fed Govt did not tie benefits to marriage.

Nor should they, it is still a state issue. The feds need sued to end the breaks for marriage.

 

[Redfish]

Why do you just make shit up?

I merely restated what you libs have been screaming about. why can't you acknowledge what you say you want?

 

[Harpy Eagle]

Nor should they, it is still a state issue. The feds need sued to end the breaks for marriage.

And everything else tied to marriage, social security benefits, survivor benefits, health insurance benefits and more

 

[TNHarley]

what you libs

As i said, you are a binary dumbfuck. Grow up.

 

[Redfish]

This would be true if the Fed Govt did not tie benefits to marriage.

the question is really: should the government do things to encourage marriage and families by giving tax benefits. The people who wrote the tax code thought it should. Why not have a national referendum on it to see what the will of the american voters really is? Or since you libs like polls so much, someone should do a poll (a real poll) asking americans if they think marriage tax benefits should continue. you ok with that?

 

[Redfish]

As i said, you are a binary dumbfuck. Grow up.

our country is binary, dingleberry. you need to get up to speed,

 

[Papageorgio]

And everything else tied to marriage, social security benefits, survivor benefits, health insurance benefits and more

Yep, get rid of it.

 

[Circe]

Not to mention how insulting it is to anyone that has ever adopted a child, telling them they are lesser parents because they are not the biological ones.

That, they already know.

 

[Redfish]

And everything else tied to marriage, social security benefits, survivor benefits, health insurance benefits and more

so, you think the government should discourage marriage and families? Because if those policies were ended it would result in fewer marriages (of all kinds) and fewer families. How would that make the country better?
