I used to believe it was quite archaic. I always believed in love, and considered it the prime motivaton for marriage. I believed it was the couples sole decision, and no other enity should be involved.  However, as time progessed, my feelings have changed.  In AMERICA, the divorce rate is 50%.  Somethings wrong with the system. I'm rethinking the idea of planned marriages.  They seem to last quite a bit longer.

There are many reasons why some couples prefer marriage as opposed to just living together, probably the main reason is the ingrained religious idea that living together without marriage is 'living in sin' and any off spring are considered to be 'bastards' (born out of wedlock)!\nThese outmoded religious ideas are now 'going out of the window' along with superstitious religious thoughts and beliefs. A couple living together have exactly the same legal rights as any married couple.\n'Bastard' no longer has the same stigma as it used to have(who really cares if your friends parents were married or not)!\nTimes are rapidly changing, and for the better as far as I am concerned.

The sacred union of marriage is between a man and a woman.  That is how it is supposed to be.  It is completely unnatural for two people of the same sex to get married.  I will never view a homosexual "marriage" as a real marriage.  It is a total insult to me and all of the other people out there  who are in a true and natural marriage!  How dare two people who have chosen to ignore God's Word and engage in a totally unnatural relationship compare their relationship to the relationship that I have with my husband by getting "married" ?  PLEASE!!!

It is something that everyone thinks about, I mean, humans are attracted to many others than just their spouse, it is natural, we are animals all in the same sense. So, as long as there is a mutual agreement, and one from the other couple/person then there should not be much trouble.

people argue that marriage is a relgious thing, but government calls for a seperation for church and state.\n\nlet them be married and be happy. it is not affecting you.

One of those above answers is simply rediculous.  Allowing same sex marriage is not an attempt to squelch the religious objections to it.  That post was simply a more tactful way of saying the same thing as those signs that Phelps and his lunatics wave around declaring that, if we're going to be tolerant of others, then we need to tolerate intolerance as well.  That is nonsense.  You have a right to believe what you will, you do NOT have a right to dictate how others live their lives.\n\nThere is a great difference between allowing same-sex marriage and attempting to squelch some church-goer's complaints about it.  Is it so hard for people to go about their own lives?  What could POSSIBLY be wrong with allowing same-sex marriage?

Ugh. I hate the terms "moral" and "immoral" because of their current connotation. I really prefer "right" and "wrong," so I'm going to use those instead. I also don't really believe in marriage, but that's another story.\n\nAdultery is wrong because it, presumably, shows a lack of empathy towards one's significant other. If a couple are "swingers," and want to engage in mutual adultery with no hard feelings, I have no problem with that. For regular folks, though, I see it as breaking a promise and disregarding the feelings of someone you, presumably, care about. So, I feel that it is wrong.

I'm not married yet, but my take on marriage is that it's the most sacred promise you can make to someone. People just don't honor it the way they should.

. . You are witnessing the degeneration that happens to all Nations before there fall. \n  If gay marriage is legalized, why can't a brother marry his sister? ? After all, you who claim gay marriage is okay, what gives you the right to oppose  two brothers, are a brother-sister marriage?  You went wrong when you created your own ethics. If right and wrong are merely what you esteem it to be, What ever gives you the right to oppose others, on anything,without being a intolerant bigot yourself? Is your opinion more worthy than theirs Are, are you just arrogant enough to think yours is,and theirs is not. Situational ethics is a train wreck. There has always been right and wrong, good, and evil. God told mankind what was right, and wrong. The U.S.A. is slipping into degeneracy. Marriage is what it has always been. All through history, marriage has been between a man and woman.  That is the very definition of marriage.

to MISS POLY...you rub your marriage in my face. \nI have no idea why people are so against gay marriage...I am gay, and I do NOT want to get married. But, in fairness, the legal protections offered Straights are denied the same tax-paying gays...Gays have no rights of inheritance, Social Security Benefits, etc. I have known couples who spent a life together, both contributing equally to the assests, who, in stupidity, did not write iron-clad wills. The family of one who had died, came in, broke the will, and took everything that the couple had amassed in a lifetime, leaving the guy left behind with nothing! Things are pretty sad in this world, and this prejudice just makes things sadder. Oh, and by the way...your question wording is cute. I am gay and gray...well, what's left of it, anyway. :-)

OK, we get it.  Your question is tongue in cheek.\n\nWell, one reason they should be allowed to marry is, their ceremonies would be ...... FABULOUS!\n\nAlso, if you don't like them, remember.... the divorce rate is 50%, so you'd be doing a disservice to half these people.

You can marry the person you love and want to spend the rest of your life with, while they can't. Laws against same-sex marriage impose an arbitrary, and essentially religious view of marriage on people who do not believe in it, for no reason other than to maintain the status quo. It is ridiculous to say that you have the same rights because you can't marry someone of the same sex either; you obviously don't want to.

I'm not sure why you care. Is it for the monetary benefits they could then enjoy as a legally married couple? If it's not about money, then why make such a big deal about it? The bottom line is how two people feel about one another and not some definition of "marriage" that society chooses to make. I think I'd revere two people who were dedicated to one another who didn't need the formality of marriage as a crutch. Spend your time living life, not debating it.\n\nIn my opinion, the basis of your arguments are that you want society to accept homosexuality as a normal human condition. Unfortunately, homosexuality is not a normal human condition by definition because reproduction is necessary to preserve the species as it is with any animal on earth. It's true that 10% of the population is genetically homosexual, but so is 10% of the population deaf or blind, but that doesn't make it normal. On the other hand, skin color, nationality, culture, gender, and other potential racially related discriminant features are simply manifestations of human evolution on earth. Darwin's theory of evolution cannot support homosexuality as a normal development of mankind.

Because I am against slavery in all its forms, I am also against marriage in all its forms.  No person should be the property of another person.

I am a white American Female and my husband, a Filipino, is the best thing that has ever happened to me.  I could not imagine life without him.  Interracial marriage is perfectly acceptable as long as the people love each other and are ready to forge a new life together whatever the obstacles.  Our biggest obstacle was some cultural stuff because we grew up so very differently, but with time love and tenderness we worked through it and are falling more in love everyday!

i don't see anything wrong in disagreeing with it as long as one doesn't impose his/her views on others. i am one of those people who disagree with interracial relationships due to the fact that i want to preserve the beauty of uniqueness, also, i see interracial relationships as a threat to different culture of each race.
