    No more or less than traditionally married monkeys are doing either, for that matter. At least in so far as their species is concerned.

    There are traditionally married monkeys, right? I mean, after all, there must be some financial motivation for procreating. It's not like procreation is some kind of instinctual biological imperitive. Couples clearly wouldn't procreate unless it provided some kind of tax dodge.

    And finally, they're doing a whole heck of a lot more than 60% of married couple American households are doing.

    I know that you try to be deliberately obtuse sometimes, and you're clearly a dyed in the wool ideologue, but you're not an idiot by any means.

    You can see, clearly, how the "procreation" argument for marriage can be shred to pieces by anyone given even a moment's thought and how silly it is on its face.

    I'd actually go so far as to say that its a struggle to actually try to find any logic in it at all.

    What would make sense, if "procreation" is what is being incentivised here, would be to simply incentivize procreation, rather than the potential that a married couple, about 40% of the time, will procreate.

    Strong, upstanding future citizens is the goal right?

    If so, 60% of the funding expended on married couple benefits get's pissed right down the drain if 60% of married couples aren't raising strong, upstanding future citizens.

    How you can support this kind of extragagant welfare program is beyond me.

Legal marriage should only be for those who can make children, i.e., heterosexual couples.

    Your "children of the state" sentence raises a provocative question: are children wards of the State or property of the parents? The current arrangement seems to be a mixture of both when not adjudicated to be an emancipated minor.
    Lets try this again. The state is first and foremost above the rights of citizens. The state will allow certain citizens more rights then others to ensure the states continued existence through procreation. Entitled citizens should raise the children of the State in a healthy environment. Marital rights will only be extended to those who make children for the state, although heterosexuals who don't make children will be granted marital rights for having sex in a proscribed manner.

    The logic is supported by 2,000 years of practical real world experience - not liberal socialist utopia that never existed.

    I don't know if anyone has mentioned that the earth is over populated and resources are limited. Your irresponsible utopia of thinking the earth has unlimited resources is far from realistic.

    Yet, we don't see Liberals killing themselves in droves so dedicated to not being part of the supposed problem. Obviously, Liberals do not really believe in their own rhetoric. You've been indoctrinated to believe earth is over-populated despite the fact that birth rates in countries of Western Civilization are declining. I know, you embrace multiculturalism as long as it is not White, male, Christian, Heterosexual Western Culture.

    Yes make more babies so we can commit suicide ... that makes sense ... if you don't kill yourself ... reality is rhetoric. Hmm the earth is not overpopulated ... OK you said so.

    As to multicultural I am White, male, Christian, Heterosexual. I also know mankind has a sick disease of trying to control others choices. I have lived around minorities, women, non Christians, and gays. Control issues are all humans have ... a sickness to try and run everyone elses life, when they can't run their own damned life. If we could all just be exactly the same ... how wonderful that would be.

    My 1st instruction to my children ... don't be like your father ... be yourself ... nobody needs a mirror image of mental masturbation.

    So earth to Yankee ... most people fantasize about something less then what you would call normal. Gays are the ones with the balls to be honest.

    So I can assume hetero sexual males have never had anal sex with a woman. Hmmm ... note to self ... lmao
    You haven't disputed either of my points:
    1. If you can get it up for a male, you are gay.
    2. Putting your wang in the poop hole has always been considered perverted.

    That has never been my position, nor is it the position of the Catholic Church. Nice attempt at straw man though.

    You are still confusing rights with entitlements. Marriage is not a right.

    Hey the perverts who molested the male children identified themselves as heterosexuals and lived a heterosexual life style. Like I said all people have "perverted" fantasies based upon what is considered normal by church standards. Some heterosexuals act upon those fantasies ... maybe rape a little boy or girl, have sex with an animal, lick womens feet, ... who knows all the things that turn people on.

    As to getting it up ... the wind blowing is an excuse for males to get it up . They think about sex all damn day long.

    Or as the comedian Ron White said ... do you like to watch porn video's? Yupp Do your like to watch porn video's where the guys doing the chick has a little weiner? Nope I like to watch when he has a big weiner ...

    Whats with all the guys watching porn video's? Do they like to see guys wangs?

    How many guys have had anal sex with a woman? According to a 1992 study more then a quarter of men had heterosexual anal sex.

    That's not entirely true.

    The liberal socialist utopia, at least in the United States, does exist and has existed since about 1943 with the advent of the payroll withholding tax, compounded by the manner in which the government has subsequently gone about redistributing the wealth that those taxes generate.

    I wouldn't have a huge issue with the whole gay marriage debate if there weren't very real, and very unfair, financial implications for American citizens based upon their sexual orientation.

    But once you start giving tax breaks to married couples and deny those tax breaks to other commited couples who want to be married but can't get married based upon laws that are predicated on tradition rather than substance, I've got a problem with it.

    All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others. That's a pretty good summation of socialism gone bad, right?

    Well that's what you've got in America when you say that all citizens are equal, but when it comes to the manner in which we redistribute public funds some Americans are more equal than others.

    Dude, you're arguing FOR the socialist status quo.

    Which is what he homosexual agenda is all about! Re-engineer the existing social engineering. You demand special treatment, equal entitlement for unequal behavior.

    So men think about sex all day long. If they fantasize about it with a guy then they are gay. If they get it up for a guy then they are gay, regardless of their marital status.

    Again you completely failed to dispute my second point.
