mmm, but the UN has legally stated marriage as a right. LadyLorraine Send a noteboard - 10/08/2010 02:52:03 AM
and granted, the UN is not the US, but the US falls under the UN, does it not? I've never really understood exactly how that relationship works out, but we're really not supposed to violate the UN declarations of human rights, are we?
Still Empress of the Poofy Purple Pillow Pile Palace!!

Nice. *NM* Camilla - 07/08/2010 08:58:20 AM 661 Views
That would only be appropriate if Christians wanted to ban secular unions of normal people. Cannoli - 07/08/2010 11:51:29 AM 1411 Views
Hey, look! There was a point over there! Dannymac - 07/08/2010 03:46:41 PM 1224 Views

I still do not see how you think marriage is a "pointless" institution LadyLorraine - 08/08/2010 08:05:45 PM 1201 Views
No, I was referring to same-sex marriage. Real marriage hardly counts as a novelty. *NM* Cannoli - 11/08/2010 02:28:43 PM 489 Views
This must be the "thought out reaction" I've heard so much about. Dannymac - 08/08/2010 10:45:59 PM 1031 Views
You cannot be that stupid. Cannoli - 11/08/2010 03:10:55 PM 1320 Views
There's a lot of ridiculous arguments here, but I'll focus on just one of them... Legolas - 11/08/2010 03:38:05 PM 1253 Views

A lot of the arguments would seem to justify polygamy and incest too Isaac - 08/08/2010 11:51:24 PM 1063 Views
And what is wrong with polygamy? *NM* Ectheledhel - 09/08/2010 10:36:53 AM 556 Views
Did I say there was anything? Isaac - 09/08/2010 11:03:10 AM 1181 Views
Plolygamy and incest are not on the same level of bad. Camilla - 09/08/2010 11:00:07 AM 1128 Views

Great post Danny SilverWarder - 09/08/2010 08:22:27 PM 882 Views
It should be noted again... Jeordam - 09/08/2010 08:59:32 PM 1166 Views
and how is it not a right? LadyLorraine - 09/08/2010 09:19:12 PM 1059 Views

+1 Napoleon62 - 10/08/2010 03:11:22 AM 1230 Views
Article 16 probably not a great example Isaac - 10/08/2010 03:44:04 AM 1022 Views
You could just as easily move the emphasis... Napoleon62 - 10/08/2010 04:08:46 AM 1170 Views
If we need a more specific resolution... Napoleon62 - 10/08/2010 04:22:12 AM 1356 Views
No, the choice of 'Men and Women' is too specific in the context Isaac - 10/08/2010 05:25:57 AM 1054 Views
Re: No, the choice of 'Men and Women' is too specific in the context Napoleon62 - 10/08/2010 03:04:39 PM 1368 Views
That's really a ridiculous stance, you do realize. Legolas - 10/08/2010 03:23:02 PM 971 Views
The point is that marriage IS a right, one which cannot be denied based upon sexual orientation *NM* Napoleon62 - 10/08/2010 07:04:16 PM 774 Views

It doesn't say a man can only marry a woman or vice versa, though. Dreaded Anomaly - 10/08/2010 04:24:17 AM 1036 Views
It also doesn't say they can Isaac - 10/08/2010 04:41:18 AM 1038 Views
You're missing the point. It's not about gay marriage. Legolas - 10/08/2010 11:20:59 AM 1052 Views
No, I got that, I'm pointing out how it does so Isaac - 10/08/2010 01:47:00 PM 1051 Views
I know, and that's been brought up before. But that's not my point. LadyLorraine - 10/08/2010 06:09:32 PM 1022 Views
Re: I know, and that's been brought up before. But that's not my point. Isaac - 10/08/2010 06:33:56 PM 953 Views
It's mentioned as a right in some SC decision quoted in that Walker opinion. *NM* Legolas - 10/08/2010 06:51:13 PM 501 Views
To clarify for you SilverWarder - 10/08/2010 05:36:14 AM 1033 Views
The UNSC is actually the UN's enforcement body... Napoleon62 - 10/08/2010 07:16:31 PM 1417 Views
I'm not sure that I would call the Security Council the 'Enforcement Body' SilverWarder - 10/08/2010 08:43:02 PM 1029 Views
The fact that it is capable of authorizing the use of military force makes it an enforcement body Napoleon62 - 10/08/2010 10:33:59 PM 1311 Views
Disagree - but it's most a matter of definition there SilverWarder - 11/08/2010 04:31:53 PM 1185 Views
What the UN thinks is *completely* worthless.... Jeordam - 10/08/2010 06:43:15 PM 977 Views
and the Constitution dictates nothing about marriage. *NM* LadyLorraine - 10/08/2010 11:46:24 PM 532 Views
That means it is up to the people. And they say "No." *NM* Cannoli - 11/08/2010 03:13:12 PM 538 Views
No, but it does dictate things about rights and discrimination SilverWarder - 12/08/2010 03:48:02 PM 1220 Views
Why don't YOU back up your assertion that the right to marry exists? *NM* Cannoli - 11/08/2010 03:16:02 PM 540 Views
The actual ruling on Prop 8 specifices marriage as a freedom, not a right. Dreaded Anomaly - 10/08/2010 12:02:17 AM 1146 Views
Out of curiosity, what would you say to using the Ninth Amendment, possibly in conjunction... Vodalus - 10/08/2010 12:20:19 AM 1207 Views
I agree LadyLorraine - 10/08/2010 06:11:19 PM 903 Views
Yeah but this can't be used to prove that it IS a right... Napoleon62 - 10/08/2010 07:30:57 PM 1302 Views
Note it all you want... Dannymac - 10/08/2010 06:43:53 AM 904 Views
No, they seek to expand the terms of the partnership. Homosexuals can & do get married normally *NM* Cannoli - 11/08/2010 03:14:25 PM 575 Views
