Closeminded ignorant idiots!

aggggggggh!

OK so I just mentioned to the ladies in my office that same sex marriage was passed by the supreme court today, and two of the people I THOUGHT would be supportive of such a decision groaned, and one even had the nerve to say "uuuuugh why did they have to do that? They just ruined the definition of marriage."

WHAT THE FUCKING FUCK!?!?

I just don't understand why people care SO much about something that doesn't even affect their life in the least! It's not going to affect THEIR marriage, or their income, or their love or ANYTHING so why the fuck do they have to be so predjudice and ignorant?! AGGGH!!! It pisses me off so much when people who have been raised to be religious are so fucking sheltered and ignorant and have no concept of the happiness and lives of others who make different choices from them!!

@#$%#^&%#%

As if that one girl doesn't piss me off enough already, I want to slap her more than ever before!! GRRRRRRRRRR!

i was talking about this with my parents and they didn't like the idea either. i think older people have the "old school" way of thinking, so they will think it is wrong.

i don't care, it doesn't affect me. but everyone is entitled to their opinion. :)

/\ AMEN SISTA!!! My roomie and I have been happy all day with the news!!! Not only did the supreme court allow for the civil marriage of gays but they also protected the freedom of people's religious beliefs by saying that religious groups would not have to marry gay couples if it was against that particular faith...It is a win win situation...every group should be happy...

I don't think I have seen a better example of a decision that truly divides church and state...I have nothing but respect for the judges who made it.

That's what JP's are for! It's still a legal marriage! IMO, who really needs a religious officiator anyways?

Religious people (ANY religion) will never be happy until the world sees everything their way. It's the nature of the beast. I think this is a F-A-N-T-A-S-T-I-C decision on the part of the supreme court, and I'd just like to reiterate the fact that I'm damned proud to be Canadian. :)

if I COULD give you Karma Id give you a million billion points for that

This was a brilliant decision and it firmly has restored my faith in the Canadian judicial system. With the installation of Martin as PM - a closet conservative among other things - I feared the liberal trend in canada would be lost.

Next step is the legalization of marijuana, a major change in the system of elections of representation, and the nationalization of St. Pierre & Michaelon (random fucking french islands that have no business being french)

Seriously though Im proud of the courts protecting important human rights of equality, and also not pissing too much on those archaic bastions of intolerance and hate I like to call "Organized Religion".

I don't car if someone is gay... I think they should be allowed to be married in the eyes of the government, for churches, however, that is a different story... getting a marriage license from the government is one thing, but wanting to be married by a church, which is against the churches rules is another. I don't know if I'm making sense or rambling, I'm tired. LOL.

What I'm trying to say is keep your beleifs/lifestyle choices to yourself, you should have the same rights as anyone, however don't try and force into areas are against it.

well itz not like ur co-workers went out & actively campaigned against same sex marriage. u told them a piece of news they expressed a quick quip bout their oppinion. think it is 1 of the tenents of our society bein able to have & express our oppinion. just as u r doin now.
right or wrong is a fluidic ideal & never an absolute

who ever wrote the book on religion was on acid, religion is nothing, it was something way back when to give people 'hope'

if we as a society are ever going to evolve we need to check our indifferences and religion at the door and be more open minded.

i say we build a time machine, go back in time and paint a few lasting images on some canyon walls or leave some kind of lasting feature somewhere that would define the laws of today... its the only way people will believe anything... and most of all.... tag it with...

personally same sex marriages doesn't affect me at all at a smaller level of things. if someone is happy cuz they got to marry the person they truly love that's great. if i was only concerned about my own little world then fuck it. let the gays and lesbians do their thing, it wont affect me.

but i can also see why more conservative minded, like miss t said, "old school" folk, see things on a more larger scale, society and humanity as the bigger picture. some may wonder what the world coming to when everyone is becoming more free to do as they please. this north american "dream of freedom" thing is a key away from interdependency to independancy. I can't think of many other examples of other cultures and sociesties elsewhere around the world that have functioned stably independently..... with the number of people we have today in the world, these kinda rules are important to interdependently minded people for the sake of society functioning cooperatively, not as much for their own personal conerns and pursuits to pleasure and comfort.

but anyways thats a whole new topic but yeah..... controversial topic for sure that isn't gonna smoothen out anytime soon i don't think.

I think that no matter who you are or your sexual orientation if you love each other you should be able to get married if you choose. This goes for my opinion on abortion too. It's the right of a person to choose and noone should be dictating to anyone what they can and can't do. You don't believe in abortion then fine don't have one but don't tell someone else they can't because of what you believe. If I believe all dumb people should be killed does that mean I have the right to run around with a gun!

i can't agree with you more. You're right, it won't affect them so why should they care, have a little love for other people and let them enjoy life on how they want it to be. They aren't "god" (i'm not religious by any means, or anti-religious) but who gave them the power to decide how other people shall live. IT ISN'T THEIR CHOICE. so too all who care SOO much about how other people live I'd advise you to open your eyes just a wee bit bigger and put some love back in your heart.

Just because people don't agree with you on every point doesn't automatically make them ignorant or whatever.

whenever this gay marriage topic is brought up, I always ask that question to gauge people's views on other taboos... if people say that they are pro-same sex marriage but anti-incestuous marriage, it raises some more interesting debate... I don't see a problem with gay marriage personally, but normally when one person gets a piece of the cake you have to give it out to the rest... and the acceptance of same sex marriages builds a framework for many other arguements on the taboos of all marriage... a person that is pro-same sex marriage has to realize that if they accept one "taboo", they have to accept them all... so if a person that is pro-same sex marriage tells me that incestuous marriage is wrong (and they have) I tell them that I can't accept same sex marriages because THEY can't accept other forms of marriages...

Why do I have to accept them all? They are not the same thing.

I used to know some guys that thought once being gay stopped being a "taboo" then bestiality and pedophilia would soon follow. Because you know, raping a child or having sex w/ dogs is just like being gay.

I didn't say they were the same... but the fact is that same sex marriages give a solid framework for other debates revolving around marriage because once one piece of the pie is given, everyone is going to demand their's... so don't go fighting for one person's rights if you aren't going to fight for everyone elses...

^But if I don't think something is right, such as sex w/ a child or child porn, why would I fight for it? Saying that is just stupid. I don't have to fight for anything else just because I agree w/ this.

I'm not going to fight for something I don't agree w/, such as a dad having sex w/ his daughter....

Im not sure if you guys are framiliar with a little thing in the charter called "REASONABLE LIMITS". Now, the reason gay marriage is acceptable and incest/bestiality etc are not acceptable has to do with this principle. It is not REASONABLE that fathers should have sex with their offspring because thats not only illegal as far as age of concent goes, it could pose signifigant abuse, mental anguish and medical reprocusions. The child of an incestuous union will not be healthy, proven fact.

Gay people getting married is acceptable and reasonable because it really doesnt impose any concent, mental or physical health issues with the people involved in the union.
