The best one yet. Camilla Send a noteboard - 10/08/2010 07:59:17 PM
Today's "Say what" section of Doonesbury was perfect in its insanity:

"I don't know about you, but I'm not ready to be extinct, and none of us wants to be. So we don't want genocide. We don't want to destroy the sacred institution of marriage...Marriage between one man and one woman remains the guard against human extinction."

Let's ban all Christian Marriage. Dannymac - 07/08/2010 06:36:13 AM 1853 Views
Nice satire, but it raises another point for me. Helene - 07/08/2010 07:20:49 AM 1229 Views

That seems sensible to me. SilverWarder - 09/08/2010 08:13:26 PM 1175 Views
Not sure what you mean by "demoted." Dannymac - 07/08/2010 03:50:02 PM 1299 Views
Nice. *NM* Camilla - 07/08/2010 08:58:20 AM 718 Views
That would only be appropriate if Christians wanted to ban secular unions of normal people. Cannoli - 07/08/2010 11:51:29 AM 1486 Views
Hey, look! There was a point over there! Dannymac - 07/08/2010 03:46:41 PM 1351 Views
Who else should make those decisions? Cannoli - 07/08/2010 08:00:39 PM 1260 Views
I'd totally... Ectheledhel - 08/08/2010 04:14:15 AM 1163 Views
I'd totally... ßelals Girl - 08/08/2010 06:17:30 AM 1324 Views
You'd defend this idiot? *NM* Ectheledhel - 08/08/2010 06:40:34 AM 595 Views
Indeed ßelals Girl - 08/08/2010 06:43:53 AM 1256 Views
I used to think Joel was the biggest rambler on this site. I am seriously reconsidering. everynametaken - 08/08/2010 05:24:56 AM 1262 Views
And my assessment of one poster as the most content-poor, non-contributing slug is unchanged Cannoli - 08/08/2010 07:17:02 PM 1167 Views
Um, ok. *NM* everynametaken - 10/08/2010 12:48:19 AM 601 Views

Re: *Shakes Head* Cannoli - 08/08/2010 07:43:11 PM 1184 Views
I still do not see how you think marriage is a "pointless" institution LadyLorraine - 08/08/2010 08:05:45 PM 1348 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 530 Views
This must be the "thought out reaction" I've heard so much about. Dannymac - 08/08/2010 10:45:59 PM 1140 Views
You cannot be that stupid. Cannoli - 11/08/2010 03:10:55 PM 1398 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 1341 Views
Incorrect. Genders are not treated equally. Dreaded Anomaly - 11/08/2010 07:53:00 PM 1523 Views
all you need is enough support to pass an amendment random thoughts - 08/08/2010 02:46:08 PM 1123 Views
A lot of the arguments would seem to justify polygamy and incest too Isaac - 08/08/2010 11:51:24 PM 1193 Views
And what is wrong with polygamy? *NM* Ectheledhel - 09/08/2010 10:36:53 AM 617 Views
Did I say there was anything? Isaac - 09/08/2010 11:03:10 AM 1263 Views
Plolygamy and incest are not on the same level of bad. Camilla - 09/08/2010 11:00:07 AM 1211 Views
Is that assumption valid? Isaac - 09/08/2010 11:36:26 AM 1153 Views

Mmm, but when you're strictly discussing marriage LadyLorraine - 09/08/2010 06:13:30 PM 1282 Views
Re: Mmm, but when you're strictly discussing marriage Isaac - 10/08/2010 01:24:06 AM 1087 Views

Great post Danny SilverWarder - 09/08/2010 08:22:27 PM 985 Views
It should be noted again... Jeordam - 09/08/2010 08:59:32 PM 1246 Views
and how is it not a right? LadyLorraine - 09/08/2010 09:19:12 PM 1159 Views
My definition of rights... Jeordam - 09/08/2010 10:47:16 PM 1244 Views
mmm, but the UN has legally stated marriage as a right. LadyLorraine - 10/08/2010 02:52:03 AM 1013 Views
+1 Napoleon62 - 10/08/2010 03:11:22 AM 1304 Views
Article 16 probably not a great example Isaac - 10/08/2010 03:44:04 AM 1111 Views
You could just as easily move the emphasis... Napoleon62 - 10/08/2010 04:08:46 AM 1269 Views
If we need a more specific resolution... Napoleon62 - 10/08/2010 04:22:12 AM 1450 Views
No, the choice of 'Men and Women' is too specific in the context Isaac - 10/08/2010 05:25:57 AM 1146 Views
Re: No, the choice of 'Men and Women' is too specific in the context Napoleon62 - 10/08/2010 03:04:39 PM 1450 Views
That's really a ridiculous stance, you do realize. Legolas - 10/08/2010 03:23:02 PM 1047 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 833 Views
Re: No, the choice of 'Men and Women' is too specific in the context Isaac - 10/08/2010 03:46:56 PM 1308 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 1121 Views
It also doesn't say they can Isaac - 10/08/2010 04:41:18 AM 1119 Views
You're missing the point. It's not about gay marriage. Legolas - 10/08/2010 11:20:59 AM 1156 Views
No, I got that, I'm pointing out how it does so Isaac - 10/08/2010 01:47:00 PM 1145 Views
I know, and that's been brought up before. But that's not my point. LadyLorraine - 10/08/2010 06:09:32 PM 1100 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 1042 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 553 Views
To clarify for you SilverWarder - 10/08/2010 05:36:14 AM 1111 Views
The UNSC is actually the UN's enforcement body... Napoleon62 - 10/08/2010 07:16:31 PM 1508 Views
I'm not sure that I would call the Security Council the 'Enforcement Body' SilverWarder - 10/08/2010 08:43:02 PM 1125 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 1389 Views
Disagree - but it's most a matter of definition there SilverWarder - 11/08/2010 04:31:53 PM 1272 Views
What the UN thinks is *completely* worthless.... Jeordam - 10/08/2010 06:43:15 PM 1075 Views
and the Constitution dictates nothing about marriage. *NM* LadyLorraine - 10/08/2010 11:46:24 PM 578 Views
That means it is up to the people. And they say "No." *NM* Cannoli - 11/08/2010 03:13:12 PM 589 Views
No, but it does dictate things about rights and discrimination SilverWarder - 12/08/2010 03:48:02 PM 1301 Views
Why don't YOU back up your assertion that the right to marry exists? *NM* Cannoli - 11/08/2010 03:16:02 PM 587 Views
The actual ruling on Prop 8 specifices marriage as a freedom, not a right. Dreaded Anomaly - 10/08/2010 12:02:17 AM 1231 Views
Out of curiosity, what would you say to using the Ninth Amendment, possibly in conjunction... Vodalus - 10/08/2010 12:20:19 AM 1289 Views
I agree LadyLorraine - 10/08/2010 06:11:19 PM 990 Views
Yeah but this can't be used to prove that it IS a right... Napoleon62 - 10/08/2010 07:30:57 PM 1443 Views
Note it all you want... Dannymac - 10/08/2010 06:43:53 AM 1005 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 632 Views
The best one yet. Camilla - 10/08/2010 07:59:17 PM 1247 Views
