I love how gbaji wants us to pick a decide and defend it "not based on emotion." Even though we've been telling him the point all along is emotion. Normal people (whether gay or straight) do not get married for any supposed financial benefit. They do it because they love the other person, and in our society the symbolic sanctifying of that love is marriage. Money is not the issue, and never has been. Every time gbaji or varrus or any other conservative drags us into a 12 page debate about the financial aspects of marriage, all they're doing is obfuscating the point: we should allow homosexuals to get married because they love each other the same way a man and woman in heterosexual marriage love each other, and our society recognizes the bond between two people through the ceremony of marriage.
There is no other reason.

Hi. You must be new here. Welcome to the Asylum.
C'mon. You should know better. They hold ridiculously indefensible positions so all their arguments are strawmen and diversions.
