DDuncan Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 This issue should be let up to the states. SCOTUS shouldn't waste thier time with this. Just see how many times gay marriage has been defeated at the ballot box and there are bigger fish to fry. I've lost all respect for SCOTUS after Roberts' brilliant Obamacare ruling.

Magikal Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Relax guy, america is actually ahead of most of the developed world in equal rights for homosexuals, being one of literally only a handful of countries that you can legally marry someone of the same sex (in some states). In fact, same-sex marriage was legal in Massachusetts before it was in most of Canada. Interesting note: Obama is for same-sex marriage while Harper is against The blind circle jerk of hate for america on these boards would be laughable if it wasn't so pathetic edit: grammar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gurn Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Well in another thread people did say their dog was their family. But truly as for marriage with animals I'd have to say neigh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDuncan Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 I'm fully against marriage to animals, but I'm sure people can create arguments that will make it seem legit to others. If SCOTUS makes a ruling in favor of gay marriage, I could see polygamy or animal marriage being seriously considered by within 5-10 years. A country losing its morals is ripe for the picking.

DarthNinja Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 What are you babbling on about??? Civil Marriage Act: Marriage — certain aspects of capacity 2. Marriage, for civil purposes, is the lawful union of two persons to the exclusion of all others. No animals, no polygamy and subject to laws of general application such as incest and prohibited degrees of consanguinity. And as far as religion: Religious officials 3. It is recognized that officials of religious groups are free to refuse to perform marriages that are not in accordance with their religious beliefs. Freedom of conscience and religion and expression of beliefs 3.1 For greater certainty, no person or organization shall be deprived of any benefit, or be subject to any obligation or sanction, under any law of the Parliament of Canada solely by reason of their exercise, in respect of marriage between persons of the same sex, of the freedom of conscience and religion guaranteed under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms or the expression of their beliefs in respect of marriage as the union of a man and woman to the exclusion of all others based on that guaranteed freedom. http://laws-lois.jus...1.5/page-1.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
