Just found out why gays want to marry

[cmd]

Here is a quote from a comment to a local newpaper.

"GIVE ME A BREAK!! The one and only reason these people want this right is so they can adopt children and teach them the perverseness of their ways. It is the only way they can reproduce their kind, since that is not possible for them through the God-given reproductive methods between a HUSBAND and HIS WIFE. "

I can't believe the ignorance and bigotry of some people.

edit: didn't proofread

1. Give ME a break.

The concept of homosexuality being "taught" is laughable...it's like teaching people to be tall.

[neebob]

11. Hey, I was taught to be tall

and I learned it pretty good!

[Bog Frog]

26. I was taught to be heterosexual.

Suffice it to say it did not take. Sexual orientation can't be taught, or beaten, or otherwise infused into a child's psyche. We are who we are. End of discussion.

2. Has this person ever heard of

sperm donors? Surrogate mothers? Artificial insemination?

My rig works just as well, thanks.

[Narf]

3. Did you find this over on FreekRepublic?

Sounds like one of their rants.

16. In a local newspaper

Readers submit comments by e-mail.

4. How about this one

"by allowing gay marriage to occur I am a participant in the already decomposing morality that is our society"

i almost strangled the person

edit: freudian slip i said "also" instead of "almost"

[boobooday]

5. They want your children

Isn't that funny?

I guess my gay friends didn't do a very good job with my kids. Even after hours and hours spent together, they weren't successful in "converting" either one of them.

Were they just ineffective proponents of the gay agenda? Did they not get the memo?

6. Is the comment...

Thanks for posting this.

18. Here's the link

Go about half way down the page to find this bigot. However, there are many other idiot choices in other comments. Have at 'em.

[foreigncorrespondent]

29. Thank you

I will be sending them a comment back. :)

You forgot the link?

7. Hate

is a sin and people like this deserve to burn in hell..if there is such a place

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

8. That is simply stupid

but then the other day I heard a minister stating that the sole purpose of marriage was to raise kids. Guess that makes me a sinner, because my husband and I chose NOT to procreate. There are enough people in the world.

And what does marriage have to do with adoption? I know gays who have adopted kids.

[Bog Frog]

9. We have been facing this kind of abject hatred and bigotry all our lives.

I know that's no surprise to anyone on DU. But we have and jesus christ, it really, really hurts.

When someone refuses to accept that all you want is to live your life in quiet peace, with all of the advantages any other married couple is entitled to under the law -- it hurts on so many levels that you can't even imagine it.

20. I know you have.

I've seen what my friends have had to put up with. :hug:

[Bog Frog]

25. hey daughter

thanks for the :hug:

10. My friend's company's CEO

I posted this link the other day, but I think it should be passed around.

Corbis, in case anybody is wondering, is a stock photography agency.

12. great letter

thanks, consider it passed

13. Hey you guys

Barney Frank cannot get married, but Michael Jackson can twice!

[MAlibdem]

14. i want barney frank to be my next senator!

JK for President, Barney Frank for his Senate seat! oh please oh please oh please! I'm just outside his district.

[Bog Frog]

15. is that a possibility?

With Kerry vacating his Senate seat upon inauguration on 1/20/05, doesn't the governor of MA appoint someone to fill the seat until the next election? I doubt Romney will appoint Barney Frank. :(

oops, he won't vacate on election; it'll be when he's inaugurated.

[undergroundpanther]

17. Didn't the

Bigots once claim if black people were free too that they'd go after white wimmon and the chillren?

Dammit why is it grown adults who become parents are so reactionary? Parents will do all kinds of cruel dumb shit and destroy freedom for the children,never stopping to realize they are bringing to the children a future they themselves could not live in. Yet when parents do get investigated for child abuse,investigated for neglect or investigated for suspicion they get all upset and scream about their rights ,the intrusiveness of the state into privacy,and they howl about their sacred family freedoms...Statistics show the home is where the hurt is.
It's parents who rationalize spanking,which is abuse,with religion spare the rod spoil the child etc.How many parents if they got a parking ticket would submit to a spanking? None. Hypocrites.There are parents who are sane,and treat others including their own kids with respect,than there are the Stupid fucking selfish,...parents.

24. As can Newt!

Newt, who dumped his first wife because she didn't die fast enough can be married as often as he wants, but his lesbian sister cannot marry once!

[Vickers]

19. That letter is fantastic!

I wish I worked for a company with a boss as cool and smart as that.

Oh wait: I don't HAVE a job.

:-(

[maggrwaggr]

21. as usual they are guilty of what they accuse others of

people like this want to indoctrinate children to think the way they do.

therefore they think that everybody is like them.

gays must want to indoctrinate children, the way they do.

Yes, gays want to do "gay home-schooling" and brainwash the little buggers into a depraved lifestyle.

:eyes:

22. Here's my question to these people

Why are there so many heterosexuals?

If you consider how many of the most rabid puritans are trying to teach people to be asexual as defined by this organization: http://www.asexuality.org then why are there so many people out there wanting to have sex?

These rabid puritans are the ones who consider it a sin just to desire someone. The only people who don't commit the so-called deadly sin of lust are the people the AVEN website is created by and for.

on edit: fixed the link. BAD place to put a typo.

[LeahMira]

23. Ouch!

The one and only reason these people want this right is so they can adopt children and teach them the perverseness of their ways.

The one and only reason that Bible-believing Christian fundamentalistss want this right limited to heterosexuals like themselves is so they can adopt children and teach them the perverseness of their Bible-believing Christian fundamentalist ways.

Someone ought to just say it.

[Cursive_Knives512]

28. Oof! Exactly!

[slinkerwink]

27. people can be horribly stupid....that's what a lack of education does

to them.

[belle]

30. Silly; we don't teach them anything. We EAT them. Hadn't you heard?
