Thumbs up

Belgium had his first gaymarriage yesterday. Belgian Gays can now marry other gays from Belgium itself or another country where gaymarriage is legal. I think it's a good thing to have it in a country. What do you think of it?

Well, I DO think it is right, BertBoy. And it makes me very happy. If only my own country could be so progressive on the road to treating people equally in regards to sexual orientation!

I respect that. But can you tell us why you think it's not right?

I think it's an excellent thing for a country to do. Definately a step in the right direction, in my opinion.

Well I dont even think that it is right to be a homosexual... I am not a homofobe (that might seam strange) but I have my reasons to think that.

Quite interesting, Petabyte! You don't want to tell us what it is then? I am just curious, but if you don't want to tell it is fine with me!

Go on fess up, inquiring minds want to know!
And I promise I won't hang you. At least not on this thread for this reason.
Personally i'm a heterosexual athiest and I don't think there is anything wrong or un-natural about homosexuality at all. Actually it is found to occur naturally amongst different animal species though rare.

Love all, serve all!

As long as people are friendly, loving and respect others I don't care much what they "are".

If we are into biologhy, I think bi-sexuality is something that is "natural" to most species. On the other side - we are so independent of our biologhy and we can brake social structures, that it doesn't make much interest to me either.

If man wants to fly, I think he will devolop a way to fly.

Oops, allready did.

I have nothing against homosexual men. But to be a homosexual woman is unforgivable. If there were only gay men then there would be more women over for the rest of us, but since there are gay women it evens out.

I'm kidding of course. I believe that homosexuality is something that nature has done, I have never heard of anything that would indicate that people would choose homosexuality.

When it comes to gay marriages, are we talking about simply them having the legal right to get married and/or that they should be allowed to be married by organisations that don't want to marry them, such as the church?
