Proposition 8 same sex marriage ban poll

[quote name='Dead of Knight']I kind of wish I lived in CA so I could vote NO on this trash.[/QUOTE]

[quote name='nathansu']No from both myself, my wife, my parents, and my grandparents on 8. We did our part :).[/QUOTE]

:grouphug:
 
I'd really like to think California would be extremely liberal as a whole, but regardless - if I could vote it down, I would.

You, in a gown...*cringe* lol. Me and my man have all ready decided that when we take the plunge, we're wearing kilts in the tartans of our ancestral Scottish clans.

And I'm sure that lilboo will "personally" thank you and other CAGs here that voted no lol

I thank you, but not in the way that lilboo would lol
 
I couldn't disappoint lilboo by getting married in anything other than a Xena outfit. :D

Come on, California, show Massachusetts you're almost as awesome.

Begs the question would your fiance or lilboo be dressed as Gabrielle? lol

There's only one Gabrielle....and it ain't lilboo. :lol:

I had a She-Ra costume/nightgown thing when I was a little girl. It was beyond awesome.

If Matt does the ceremony, I'll gladly stamp the CA seal of approval on the marriage license.
 
[quote name='HumanSnatcher']I would hope that would extend to me and my partner as well lol[/quote]
Of course.
 
Though hes stated something about having it in MA and spending our honeymoon in a quaint little B&B in VT lol. Either way, by the time we decide to do so, we might have more states to chose from
 
Voted NO on 8 this morning.

And I have 60 Yes on 8 signs, with the words "Owned" and a dress on the guy ready to be dumped on all the churches if No wins.

I have to say, honestly, the thought of marriage makes me shudder. Partly because I'm too young, and partly because...I don't know. I like the idea of a big party, but not the whole pressure of being locked down with one person forever. I'm jaded by seeing so many marriages fail and I naturally rebel against the natural nuclear order of things.

But it's cute to see you boys get all squishy about it.

Awesome! Just be careful though, some states have laws about keeping up yard signs after an election.

Though with that level of awesomeness sounds like you have a "personal" stake in it getting shot down lol

The only thing traditional about me is that I just want that one person. I've all ready heard the crap about being 25 and that I should be out "sowing my oats". And I know that my partner, who is 48, has been in open relationships in the past, though not his liking to begin with, wants to settle down
 
Darknessbear, pictures of such a thing would instantly boost my respect for you by 93.2 points. Just make sure you get the right churches.
 
[quote name='MSI Magus']Religion on the other hand we dont have modern uses for, it just gets us in trouble.[/quote]

And that train of thought, my friend, is why we (Americans) are spiraling downward. People (like you) insist that we no longer need religion. But when someone gets fired from a job for no reason other than for the company to save money, we say that it's wrong. When good people get robbed, raped, and killed we say that it's wrong.

Religion provides us with sensible sets of values on how and why you should do certain things. If I suddenly lost my job, without religion to guide me I have no boundaries. I would not think twice about stealing from children. I would not care if I have to rob the elderly to get some chump change.

According to your view, MSI Magus, I am simply doing "what is" without regard to what is right and wrong. I am hungry, I need food, therefore, I steal food. And why not? As long as I don't get caught by the police because really, that's all I have to watch out for.

Say and think what you want but when anything bad happens, whether it is disasters, war-torn areas, or poverty, America is always there to help (wish I could say the same for other countries). And I truly believe that it is because our country is founded on Christian values and this just makes us want to help people.
 
For the LAST TIME...the country was not founded on Xitian values. Maybe you should look up what some of the forefathers said about religion and goverment....

If you need religion to tell you that stealing from children or the elderly is wrong, you have larger "guidance" problems. Funny how if I lost my job, the thought of robbing those weaker than me would never even cross my mind, and I'm certainly not religious. They're called morals and values.

Don't give the kid ammo for "morals and values" arguments that they "come from the bible". Its more like human DECENCY than anything.

If all that's keeping you from robbing, raping, and killing is your religion, then I think the rest of us - that is, anyone who's capable off not killing someone without the threat of hellfire to keep 'em in line - have a duty to make sure that you're in church every hour of every day of your life.

Shut up myke. Everybody knows all murderers and burglars are atheists, not the other way around.

Also all atheists are murderers and burglars. Get it right.

Religion provides us with jack shit. There have been plenty of societies that have functioned without religion or with religion as a minor player. Look at much of Europe which is far ahead of America yet has far less religious people. Our conscious not religion is what guides the moral compass of man.

There are good people that are religious and it has nothing to do with religion and everything to do with these just being good people. At the same time we have plenty of religious people raping children and starting wars in the name of religion.

You can argue all you want but facts and history are on my side and the only reason your disagreeing is probably because your religions.....meaning you have to live your life blind to facts in the first damn place.
 
What time does California polls close? I am really curious as to if prop 8 will pass or not. I have a feeling it is going to....but Obama is going to win....not sure if my faith in humanity will be up or down.
 
Voted yes and it felt good.
This is Nothing like the race issues those pathetic no on 8 commercials were talking about. Gay people don't have the right to marry and those 4 activist judges should be fired. Give the gays there rights, don't take em away again, dont let them marry, and call it a day.

Weren't you silenced for such shit. Did anyone read my post that anyone I meet that voted yes will get their head stuck on a wooden spike. You don't have a right to live ass hat

No he wasnt silenced for being an ignorant fuck, he was silenced for being intolerant. I modded a post he made that went from being an ignorant fuck to showing himself for the moronic gay bashing biggot he is.
 
So when whatever faker marries you are you going to be pronounced man and wife, or how does that work. OMG I don't think gays should marry. Somebody kill me.
So much wasted money on this trash.

I'm not a racist little girl.
I voted yes on a trash proposition that should have been worded so that I would vote no instead of yes. The gays pulled all the dirty tricks in the book and it might pay off. Notice I don't hate gays, I just despise gay pride. It is vomit inducing.

Tell me about that avatar you have of a woman jamming her snizz into the face of another woman...is that straight? Or is it one of those "that? that's not gay, that's AWESOME!" ideas?

[quote name='nintendokid']What's wrong with him believing and living by his own life truth? Better than how most other people choose to live nowadays. Some people believe they have it all figured out. Just because it's 21st Century and we have the false sense of living in a secular age, we throw away ancient old traditions and values and religion goes out the window in the name of simplicity. There are some who claim that we will one day be able to rationalize and make sense of the world we live in. HA! What nerves! Our 365 day, 12 month calendar was created by ancient Egyptians thousands of years ago. Why don't we throw that away while we are in the "throwing away" mood.[/quote]

What's wrong? What's wrong is that he's okay with me being a second class citizen cause he thinks his cult should rule over everyone else.

See the great thing about a truly smart atheist is that they're skeptical. THey're always trying to prove themselves wrong, which is the opposite of christians who doggedly grab for any shred of evidence that their belief system is the ONLY belief system, and fuck everyone who doesn't agree.

Also, religion doesn't give you jack shit. We don't steal because those of us who're good people know it's wrong because it just is, not because some fairy tale book told us so.

Look up secular humanism sometime.

Also many of us are not even atheists. Its not that we disbelieve in God its that we are agnostics and constantly questioning by nature. If something cant be proven to me I dont believe it. God cant be proven or disproven thus I dont believe. However what is proven is that religion is a poison draining man kind.
 
[quote name='MSI Magus']If something cant be proven to me I dont believe it. [/QUOTE]

Ok now wait a minute - this is just a silly statement. Lots of things can't be proven, if you want to be a completely technical prick about it.

I can't prove the sun will rise tomorrow, for example. No one can.

......yes but logically we can say it will. It has risen every day before and is a pretty proven thing.

Except...no, it's not.

It takes 8 minutes for the light to hit the Earth. So it could theoretically have a problem that wouldn't go noticed for that amount of time.

Besides, that's just an example. You can't prove tons of things in life is the point.
