Gotta love the government favoring their beliefs only but on topic mostly everyone has good points.
In my opinion, gay people have every right to be together just as much as male and female. We're suppose to be created equal which means male/female can love another male/female without having to feel guilty or offended by other people. On the religion side, if I'm not a Christian, then I shouldn't have to follow Christian beliefs, simple as that. First amendment gives me the right to practice anything I want and also states that the government cannot favor any religion when passing laws. Now, I do know that only applies to federal government but I believe some states have even placed that first amendment into their own states constitution. God may have created all of us, but the founding fathers created America and later a constitution was established to protect the American people from being controlled by the government (which as you can tell, that's not really working out). They did not plan it to be like this but it's us Americans that led it to where it is now.
Remember the golden rule as a kid "Treat others the way you wish to be treated". Can you believe they taught you that in grade school and told you to follow it every day but yet when you get out in the real world, you see that nobody follows it hardly. Homosexuals should be treated with the same respect as a person who is straight. If you were in that persons shoes (I know, I know, "I wouldn't be in their shoes") but let's imagine you in their shoes, would you really want to be treated as if you were the worst people on earth because you love another same sex person. It's a simple answer, no, you wouldn't. There are a lot of people who have to live in fear because they are gay or lesbian. That's not right. The only time someone should be in fear is if they are getting attacked, harassed, robbed, etc. by criminals or gang bangers. Those are the real enemies yet everyone directs their attention on same sex marriages/relationships.
In conclusion, Let's focus on the real problems in this country except whether a man/man or female/female should be able to get married.
(I'll probably have more later to add if discussion continues but right now, it's bedtime).
**EDIT** Oh, real quick also on the adopting... It doesn't matter who the parents are, as long as the child is being raised in the proper way he/she should be raised. Single parents have a struggle with raising kids but the kids learn to stay by his/her parent's side all the way. There will always be disagreements but it's life, we all move past them. I didn't go to my parents to discuss things about life, I went up to my high school teacher of four years because he acted more of a parent figure than my stepdad or mom. He taught me a lot of stuff later in life that I should of been taught when I was younger. Looked after me and gave advice when I needed it. So I'm pretty positive that a male/male or female/female would be fully capable of raising a child as long as he/she is raised with the guidance of a parent figure.
