  1. I have listened to every speaker on this and read through the comments. So
    many people saying gay is natural . Well get a copy of an oxford dictionary
    and read the defination of natural, I am afraid gay does not come under
    natural. Nature intended the penis to be inserted into a vagina, thats
    natural what nature intended.

  2. I couldn’t care less what people do with their time, but raising kids is so
    dicey and is supposed to be even. Man and Woman. Not a man who thinks he is
    one, or a woman trapped in a mans body. How can anyone say it won’t make
    the slightest difference? Growing up in a Gay environment will lean that
    kid towards it, you must have equilibrium… It does influence no matter
    what anyone says… I don’t feel its right. But who am I to judge?
    I am Atheist, I Abhor religious indoctrination, but I strongly feel a kid
    needs male and female for a realistic approach

  3. Every one knows the definition of marriage, you cannot marry someone of the
    same sex, that’s confusion, that’s wrong, that’s nasty, that’s foolishness,
    and a child shouldn’t grow up with that nonsense and get brainwashed into
    thinking its normal. Just like incest and polygamy is abnormal, being gay
    is abnormal.

  4. you put meat in your ass ? ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha loulouuuuuuu you are
    Ficus carica ? Πουστης in greek …

  5. If you recall from my earlier comment, I said “read with understanding” you
    quoting scripture and don’t understand what your reading.

  6. Why is it confusion? Why is it wrong? Why is it nasty? Why is it abnormal?
    Why is it foolish? Because your Bible tells you so? Because it isn’t the
    “norm”? Have you ever even cracked a biology book? It is very natural for
    many species, including humans, to experience same sex attractions. This
    does not mean there is a gay gene. I’m not claiming that. What I am saying
    is that it is very natural for someone to be gay. Sexuality, of any kind,
    is not abnormal.

  7. If you recall from my earlier comment, I said “read with
    understanding”…your quoting scriptures and don’t even understand
    scripture.

  8. You must be reading the gay Bible, or you dont understand what your
    reading….read with understanding

  9. Abraham’s brother Nahor married his niece Milcah, the daughter of his other
    brother Haran. In Genesis 19:30-38, living in an isolated area after the
    destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, Lot’s two daughters conspired to seduce
    their father due to the lack of available partners and the following night
    his younger daughter, lay with him. (Genesis 19:32-35). Abraham’s wife
    Sarah is also his half-sister, on his father’s side. However, in the
    rabbinic literature, Sarah is considered Abraham’s niece

  10. Its not natural for humans to have save sex attractions, have you cracked a
    biology book open? What in biology indicates that a man’s body was made for
    another man, or a woman’s body for another woman? NOTHING AT ALL…but what
    indicates that a woman’s body was made for a man and vice versa? EVERYTHING

  11. In other words you once read something in an unscientific anti-gay book and
    now feel you are preaching inerrant truth about homosexuality. What viral
    diseases did you have in mind? I’m sure a lot of heterosexuals “go in for
    this anonymous stuff” too. YOU WROTE: “I certainly would not be one of
    them.”…. guilty conscience ^^? There is no connection between
    homosexuality and paedophilia. The most widely documented modern link to
    paedophilia is sexual abuse by clergy, Reverend.

  12. This debate, is not about marriage equality. Its about gay couples raising
    children. And who are you to say that marriage is set in stone? Who are you
    to say that that I can’t define my own definition of marriage? The world is
    evolving and changing. Sorry, thats just what it is, and you can’t stop it.

  13. If you read your bible, sir twat, you will see that polygamy and incest is
    considered very normal and given the blessing of God.

  14. Well what of the “male G spot” and the fact that pressure to the prostate
    can only be applied by means of anal penetration? Why should pressure on
    the prostate cause pleasure at all? Also the clitoris is not stimulated by
    vaginal penetration and is more suited to female to female contact… so I
    wouldn’t say “nothing at all”. Also, you seem to be confusing anatomy with
    biology… not debating; just saying.

  15. @9:55 Yes we can verify that gay couples are just a good as parents if not
    better according to the research done by the APA, and ASA, especially the
    work done by Dr. Judith Stacey. Why is it when the science does not agree
    with these religious bigots they simply ignore it or try to weasel their
    way out of it?

  16. You’re clearly getting your diluted knowledge that woman was MADE for man
    in the bible. Not a scientific book and written by a bunch of misogynistic,
    homophobic, intolerant assholes. Its filled with lots of fairy tales meant
    to “scare” the human race. Either that or you think its unnatural because
    two people of the same sex cannot reproduce. If its that, then what do you
    think of heterosexual couples who can’t, or don’t want, to reproduce. Are
    they “unnatural’?

  17. Its true that some of the studies done show that on average gay parents are
    slightly more likely to have more good out comes when it comes to raising
    children. But if you read a bit farther you will see the people running the
    studies think that the slightly better average is because in gay
    relationship their are not accidental pregnancy or parents that are not
    ready for kids and that straight and gay parents are just as skilled at
    raising children.

  18. Everyone is made different, we all are different, not one of us is the
    same, just let people love whoever they wish to, and we all would be better
    people.

  19. Many of the Old Testament Prophets and Patriarchs had multiple wives,
    including Lamech, Abraham, Jacob, Esau, Gideon, Saul, David, Solomon,
    Rehoboam, Elkanah, Ashur, Abijah and Jehoiada. Some interpretations also
    suggest Moses had a second wife in Tharbis. Other polygamists identified in
    the Bible include Ahab, Ahasuerus, Ashur, Belshazzar, Benhadad, Caleb,
    Eliphaz, Ezra, Jehoiachin, Jehoram, Jerahmeel, Joash, Machir, Manasseh,
    Mered, Nahor, Simeon, and Zedekiah.

  20. what a load of rubbish that is! There are wonderful hetero couples just
    like the ones we used to have, tell that to my mama and papa you offensive
    nincompoop and your political agenda who uses children as cannon fodder.
    shame on you! If gay people want to marry, I have no issue bu don’t say
    that gays are better cause they are just people, some of them are good,
    some aren’t!
