10 Reasons Why Gay Marriage is Wrong
1) Being gay is not natural.
And real Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses,polyester, and air conditioning, tattoos, piercings and silicon breasts.
2) Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay.
In the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall.
3) Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior.
People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract. Lamps are next.
4) Straight marriage has been around a long time and hasn't changed at all;
Hence why women are still property, blacks still can't marry whites, and divorce is still illegal.
5) Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed
And we can't let the sanctity of Britney Spears' 55-hour just-for-fun marriage be destroyed.
6) Straight marriages are valid because they produce children.
So therefore, gay couples, infertile couples,and old people shouldn't be allowed to marry because our population isn't out of control, our orphanages aren't full yet, and the world needs more children.
7) Obviously gay parents will raise gay children,
Since, of course, straight parents only raise straight children.
8) Gay marriage is not supported by religion.
In a theocracy like ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That's why we have only one religion in America.
(Did I miss the lesson where Jesus says He hates gays?)
9) Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at home.
Which is exactly why we as a society expressly forbid single parents to raise children.
10) Gay marriage will change the foundation of society; we could never adapt to new social norms.
Just like we haven't adapted to cars, the service-sector economy, or longer life spans.
One of my Facebook friends posted this today. I thought it was great! However, some others had different opinions. One guy wrote, "Er... for number 8, in the parentheses where he/she askes whether they missed the lesson about jesus hating gays, obviously they did. Jesus calls homosexuality an abomination in the bible." My response was meant to be snippety but, "Actually, Jesus never mentions homosexuality at all. Read up!! ;) Paul is the only one who ever mentions his opinions about homosexuality in the New Testament. And, Jesus certainly did not HATE anyone. Jesus came to show love and the only judgment He showed was on those that judged others (Pharisees). Pharisees thought they knew everything about the Law and that made them holy--however, Jesus had other things to say about the matter. Jesus was and is the epitome of love and calls no one an abomination. Just wanted to set the record straight! :)"
Just food for thought, I guess.

EGAD! Are you trying to be a little controversial? This'll ruffle some feathers! Love you!
It's a little immature, but I just thought it was interesting and the comments in return were even more interesting. I just can't stand hearing those arguments for why being gay is wrong and why gay marriage is even more wrong. Plus, it's good to ruffle feathers every now and then!
How are you feeling? Wait, this isn't an email--my bad.
The sad thing is, I came on her to check and see if you had responded... I guess I think of it as an e-mail to!
