These topics just bring out the bigots.
I don't think you like the fact that some people have a different opinion to you, grow up mate and accept it.

Bigotry is the state of mind of a "bigot", a person obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices, especially one who exhibits intolerance or animosity toward members of a group

You're proud to be a bigot and to discriminate people in society based on their natural sexuality?

Nothing wrong with a different opinion. If you don't accept gay marriage, that is fine .
I'm indifferent towards it, but if two same sex people wish to marry, it has no effect on me and I don't see why they shouldn't.
Are you saying you don't agree with gay marriage and don't want it, or just you don't agree with gay marriage but what others do is up to them as long as it doesn't interfere with your life?
If the former, other than you disagree with it or find it sick, which is fine by me, could you give some other reasons as to why two people, consenting, should not marry?
Gay marriage?
Next it will be perfectly ok to go and kill someone....
You are very angry people aren't you, i just don't think same sex marriage is good, it is my opinion so that is fine. Please do not continue to insult those who don't share your opinions or beliefs.
People should ignore the obvious trolling. Someone who posts statements and doesnt engage in any sort of covnersation except to stir up arguments is obviously not worth the time and effort here.
Their aim is probably to close the thread.
I don't have a counter argument, and I am a Christian.In fact, i am more of the counter-counter argument persuasion. When the bible speaks out about 'sexual immorality' its talking about casual sex outside of a marriage/relationship. In the context of homosexuality, it has more to do with condemning men sharking in public toilets than same sex individuals in a committed relationship. Or one-night stands in a heterosexual, going out looking for some fun (Been there done that). Sadly, many preachers and non-preachers, christians and non-christians alike are too blinded by their own prejudice and irrational fear, and only see what they want to see, not what is actually there.
Then we have to ask ourselves what is 'marriage' anyway, as over time and cultural shifts the goal posts are CONSTANTLY changing as the word redefines itself. Today, people marry for 'love'. We only have to go back a little over a century in to the Victorian age:

As we go further back, women are married off younger and younger often for political games and political gains. (See Marriage of State)
How we can possibly compare the norm of today to the norm of ages past and arrive at the conclusion 'gay marriage is definitely out' is beyond me and does not hold up to scrutiny.
How does another couple having a civil wedding ceremony actually affect you personally or morally?
What happened when we made massive clothes for extremely fat people? More people got extremely fat thats what.....
