How can anyone say that same sex marriages should be legalized?
To go against nature and do what you "feel" is right.

No one is born gay, being gay is a choice, not a "function"

The court, along with the gay community tells us that's it's OK because 70 percent of American marriages end up divorced. OK, you want to go with percentages, sit up and pay attention

A clinical research team did a study on children raised by gay couples, and more than 75 percent were found with the following: Depression, Cutting, Suicide victims, Became murderers or rapists, heterosexuals, bisexuals, homosexuality, gender changes, or were institutionalized.

Now, do you still want to tell me that you can do a better job raising a child then a male and a female can?

And don't go on about the other 25 percent, the research program only found twenty cases that the child had absolutely no problems other than what daily life brings you. The other cases just weren't severe enough to be documented. And besides, those who are still married have a 5 percent advantage.

When did we become so torn apart? I thought we were the "United" States.

First we give gays marriage rights, then we give them the right to adopt. What's next?
Are we going to let a gay man be the next president?

All a gay person has to do is move to California, and they will get everything they want. Then it will rub off on the surrounding states and then move to your home town.

You will call a mentally handicapped person stupid even though nature made them the way they are, but when a gay person comes around, you don't say anything even though they're going against nature. A gay person makes a choice to be a gay person. No one can stop that. But you can stop giving them rights to do whatever they want.

California is the type of state to allow homosexuality, because they are full of things such as that. But when gay people come in here and expect us to allow them to have all of the marriage rights that every one else gets, then you know we're going to go with it sooner or later.

Marriage used to be a sacred thing; Something that was held high and looked up to. Now the district court will let you sign a paper and you're married. But you let a man marry a man, or a woman marry a woman, it's all down hill from there.

We are a fallen nation and every one in America knows it whether they want to admit it or not.

What are we doing here?
Make a choice, I told you the outcome of children that were raised by homosexuals; Do you want more of that in America?

I certainly don't.
