The word MARRIAGE or not...

The word MARRIAGE or not...

Target:
Gay/Lesbians ONLY
Sponsored by: 
Many people argue that we should not be able to get married, some contend that it is in the bible and Christians used the word marriage first, so it is "theirs". Only some of course. My question is if it was called something else, but came with ALL the same privileges as a legal marriage. Would you care what it was called?

Equal rights means just that. Full equality for all, not partial for some.

NO! But i wish it was legal when I was younger; then i probably would have.

gay couples have so much creativity to give to society, so much beauty and culture is being wasted because of discrimination... for ages we are hiding our intellectual and powerful skills, because the rest of the society is not so open minded like us. is it a negtive thing to be open minded, to develop our major goal...the sake of all? why is it so horrible and painful to accept gay people? and if someone of your family was gay? whats the problem? what's the fear whAT'S THE HARM? COM'ON PEOPLE EVOLUTION IS NOW, NOT TOMORROW...NOW. SEE THE BEAUTY IN GAY PEOPLE, AFTER ALL THEY ARE JUST FACING THE SAME OBSTACLES THAT YOU ARE IN SOCIETY , BUT ONE MORE...DENIAL AND DISCRIMINATION . WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT THAT?...ACT NOW LOVE GAY PEOPLE, WE CAME FROM THE SAME CREATOR OF ALL RELIGIONS, WE ARE HERE TO HELP THE WHOLE, WE ARE HERE TO HELP THE WORLD STOP HIS TRADITIONAL VIEWS THAT DON'T LET US ALL EVOLVE, everybody is different with diferent lessons to learn. DIVERSITY HAVE A MAJOR CONTRIBUITON TFOR CULTURE AND THE EVOLUTION OF SOCIETY AND HUMAN KIND. LET LOVE BE FREE...THERE S NOTHING TO FEAR...LET US GET MARRIED...FREE OUR HEARTS...WE ARE ONE OF YOU. IT'S UP TO YOU, OR YOU OPEN YOURSELF, OR YOU CLOSE YOURSELF. THANK YOU JOAO MOREIRA

I think you should be able to marry whoever you want, no matter what race or sexual orientation you are. When was it decided that Christians governed our country and made our laws? We have freedom of religion, why can we not have freedom to marry the person we love? Yes I am a Christian, but I don't believe anyone has the right, especially not the government, to tell you who you can love or marry, just because a book tells you it's wrong.
