Really????You think ,our 4 year old twins were IVF ….Be fruitful and
multiply,the Bible is clear..I will send you a video of the little guys,it
was our last try for a girl..We have 7 sons…;)
With all of Frances problems,they spend their time and resources on
this…..Europe and France are doomed…
This is very sad.
You sure do love talking about yourself.
Go away.
no one isnt promoting that, they are just looking for equality
Our travels, video is one of my most popular..
My videos? I have one video. And are you judging me based on that video?
Isn’t there something in your precious fairytale book about judging
others…?
Speaking as a gay Indian, there are far more important things that they
need to focus on than marriage. Aspects of Indian culture is fantastic (as
is with other cultures), but their ideals are almost medieval. For example,
do you still believe in the cast system?
Its sad to see ‘The Economist’ becoming more and more leftist. French
demonstrators have all the rights to oppose gay marriage. Its because EU
law forces churches and other religious institutions to conduct gay
ceremonies. As for gay parenting, the majority of French people oppose it
because they believe that every child deserves a male and female parental
figure. These are legitimate concerns that shouldn’t be set aside for some
people’s Socialist agendas.
It’s not the same. There is no comparison. Two adult men getting married or
two adult women getting married is consensual. Beastiality Pedophilia, and
incest are not consensual.
world is going down, gay marriages, adoption, soon pedophiles and
necrophilia…
France is almost bankrupt, glad Hollande is taking seriously his presidency!
A sick immoral act, is still a sick immoral act…
You must speak from Experience!! 🙂
sounds like, confiscation or theft, soviet union style ! Stalin did exactly
that, took over the banks and confiscted Church property !
wtf does that have to do with anything
You need to read the entire conversation I was having with ClarksonsinUSA
before you butted in. He stated that if everyone was gay, that would be the
end of the human race. I told him that it would not, since gays can still
procreate, just not with their loved ones. Does that make sense?
Congrats France!!! I can’t wait to see the day when gay marriage will be
approved in every country of this world! We are slowing getting there!
After voters approved same-sex marriage in three states and refused to ban
it in another Dan Savage tweeted a sentiment that sums up why marriage
matters to gay people and their families: “When I came out to my parents 30
years ago saying “I’m gay” meant saying “I will never marry and I will
never have children.”” This adjustment to marriage will have an effect only
on gay people and their children (whom they will likely have married or
not), and that effect can only be positive for them.
Screw your self-interest and symbolism over substance. Inheritance rights
ARE defined by civil contract. What are not covered and SHOULD NOT be
covered is yet another invented entitlement to government survivor
benefits!
I’m not sure you even understand what you’re saying anymore. Listen. Gays
can have children. They are not sterile. They can have sex with the
opposite gender, in a purely mechanical manner, and create children. How
are you not following this? You said creating children was not mechanical.
It is. You said that gays cannot have children. They can. You need to think
harder before your next comment, and you will keep looking silly.
My wife and I have 7 children,sex in a loving marriage is beautiful….Sex
between persons of the same sex is sick,a dead end for the individual and
society…..Maybe that’s why Europe is in a demographic death spiral??? 🙂
Well, as is evidence by the title, the Economist isn’t biased at all!
Too bad, you could have used it as an excuse for your terrible arguments. 🙂
Boo.
Yes, you’ve said it twice, I just have no idea why you are bringing up that
a woman can bleed. Are you talking about if the woman isn’t emotionally
into it she can bleed? Sure, but with lubricant that can be avoided. And
no, it’s not a pawn if both partners agree to procreate solely to have
children for the benefit of just one of the biological parents. It doesn’t
defeat anything if the goal is to have a child and raise it with your
partner.
I don’t. But my fellow people do.. most of them. I just know that his blood
is red too. And we are human.
And wouldnt that just defeat the purpose of having children.To use a woman
as a pawn to have a child. And yes sex has everything to do with emotion.
It is a very passionate and emotional state to bear, to a point that a
woman could bleed. You speak of total nonsense and Im guessing you dont
understand sex. No woman in their right mind would give up their body to a
gay man’s desire.
Disgust and sympathy,the sin is for God to punish.
How long till the Liberals start campaigns for pedophiles, bestiality and
incest? LOVE IS LOVE. EQUALITY FOR ALL SEXUALITIES
