Obviously you have never brought up children.
I have. And?

No, and yes.Your stance has more to do with 'wants' (yours) than 'needs' (society's). Do you never actually talk to anyone who is not a right wing extremist?
Oh, you most certainly are on trial here. You wrote the following:

Is my faith that shallow? I sang mass 6 days out of 7, for 3 years, in an Episcopal Boys Choir School, one of five of its' kind in the United States.
Studied Latin, Music Theory, liturgical music, and religion...and you want to match wits with me? You want to engage in a religious "pissing contest"?
Have you ever been in a church? Do you know what the sacraments represent? Do you know what a sacrament is? Stupid bitch.
Where are the statistics for your ridiculous claim?
That is about the stupidest thing I ever heard. Many a child has been raised, competently and spectacularly, by a single parent. Many a child has suffered in a dysfunction home, headed by 2 loser parents...so the fact that a traditional family ( mother, father, children) exists, doesn't guarantee a happy home, by no means. Idiot.
This is a state issue. Why are you citing a federal document?The Declaration of Independence doesn't say Life (of the society), Liberty (of the society) and the Pursuit of Happiness ( of the society), dumbass.
That is turning the Constitution on its' head. Legal marriage isn't for the benefit of society, but the individuals. You're insane.
Obviously you can't debate, so resort to ad homs.Obviously you cannot provide anything to back up your pathetic bigoted claims.
History says otherwise.Or they realized that the only reason it was listed as a disorder was due to RELIGIOUS beliefs and not any valid medical reason.
Stated previously. Read the thread.In what ways exactly does legal marriage benefit a society?
I had a good friend raised by two women, he is a stright married father who is a profitable member of society. I also had a good friend raised by stright Republican parents and he is strung out on drugs.

There are many times when my son has done something that my wife did not understand, as well as many times my daughter has done something that I didn't understand. The male and female brains are different, so children of either sex benefit from having both a mother and a father.I have. And?
How would you know? Care to explain where faith comes from, since you know so much? In answer to your question, I don't rightly know (or care, as the only soul I'm concerned with would be my own), and actually, neither do you.Singing in church and learning Latin doesn't teach you faith, obviously. So Where is Hitler if there is no hell?![]()
There are always examples of a single parent, or two gays, raising a child successfully. But the ideal will always be a traditional family.![]()

You seem to be going on and on to avoid answering my simple question. Shall I repeat it for you?How would you know? Care to explain where faith comes from, since you know so much?

Actually the concept of Heaven vs. Hell, is very pedestrian. Testimonies and visions of Hell, designed to terrorize men into behaving "correctly", is comparable to telling children about "boogie men", to trick them into behaving. Comparable to the death penalty, designed to deter folks from committing heinous crimes, but commit them they do, don't they?
People sin, daily, despite the threat of Hell. Therefore, what good is it? It doesn't stop you from being a racist, bigoted prick...so, in the long run, what good is it?
No, the issue of legal marriage is a state issue. The Constitution defines and limits what the federal government does.Because I chose to. And it's a human issue, world wide...having nothing to do with state or federal. Moron.
So, your position is that males and females think the same way?Patent nonsense.
