Gay Marriage Ruling

[NotCranky]

While I am pretty sure I will never become an activist for gay marriage, I support it. As long as “marriage”, be it a religious experience or a legal one according to individual attitudes, is also a government institution with regulations affecting individuals of legal voting age it should not discriminate between who those adults are. Churches should be able to influence what happens on their own campuses but not in the halls of government.

Obviously there are significant social and emotional responses, if you don’t or don’t want to have children, whether gay or straight, to being “married” and therefore it should not be exclusive.

I do have some concerns specific to same sex partners in parenting but in general I think it has a much potential as other situations.I don’t have much experience with homosexuals raising children to draw on. I am not an expert in this field. In any cae I don’t think it is appropriate to make marriage exclusive based on opinions with regards to who should raise children since my wife and I were allowed to get married whether we wanted them or not.

I really don’t care whay hole people use when making love so who’s business is it to judge who others HAVE to love and who they HAVE to marry.

The law shouldn’t be based on the bible.

From the Yahoo coverage:

Outside the courthouse, gay marriage supporters cried and cheered as the news spread.

Jeanie Rizzo, one of the plaintiffs, called Pali Cooper, her partner of 19 years, and asked, “Pali, will you marry me?”

“This is a very historic day. This is just such freedom for us,” Rizzo said. “This is a message that says all of us are entitled to human dignity.”

In the Castro, historically a center of the gay community in San Francisco, Tim Oviatt started crying while watching the news on TV.

“I’ve been waiting for this all my life,” he said. “This is a life-affirming moment.”

End quote.

On the other side of the aisle, we have people saying “it disgusts” them, or “bothers” them, but never illustrating how it AFFECTS them. The quote above shows the profound effect this has on gays and lesbians, yet people will vote for a state constitutional ban on gay marriage in November on something that will have NO effect on THEIR life, but will take away a right of another. This is a very sad commentary on the people of the state of California. History and our descendants will not cast a kind eye back on us.
