What is your stance on same-sex marriage?

That’s one thing I dislike about messaging people on the internet, you only get the words on the screen. They might say one thing that’s harsh or annoying and now the reader only thinks of that person as harsh and annoying. They never meet the person IRL and most likely will hate them forever. On-screen argument the fighters don’t see the others person body language or how they would say those things, and maybe at the end of the day one is crying and the other is feeling guilty for what they said. I think on this site, which is meant for writing, politics should stay out of the subject.

I have been in that situation before, and tbh I kinda agree with you

I agree as well, I just got in that situation today and someone called me ‘sick’ (not in the terms of wellness either) but I’m going a bit off topic here

People wonder why I always try to defend even the worst of arguments, it's because half the time they aren't bad people and it seems unfair for me to judge them for what could just be simple miscommunication.

Yeah, even for people that are on this site that go into a rage about something I said, I don’t look back at them and say their bad people, even here on this site/page I will forgive them, even if they keep on bringing up post from when I was angry and writing out my response in a quick and unclean manner.

Just know that I will never judge you, I know how easy it is to get carried away and say things without thinking, believe me, I've done it more than once…

hey, remember that thing where I said choose your words carefully? Because, you know, we can't hear tones or perceive body language, haha you know that whole message I posted twice
maybe take some of that advice?? it kinda helps if you legitimately don't want to seem like a jerk????

Yeah but sometimes, usually when I'm tired or had a bad day, I tend to forget that advice, so I'm guessing the same thing probably happens to Golden

We all say stupid things in the moment so I'm not that angry. But please choose your words because on the internet it's harder to take it back. And please don't excuse yourself on a bad day. I understand those days too but make sure you watch the words you say regardless

Everyone should think before they speak. Not doing so will result in disaster. Especially on here, as everyone has strong values and beliefs.
But nobody is angry.

Speak for yourself. I’m very very irritated.

I see. That's fine.

From now on in this conversation can we just stop judging and use it for what it was actually meant for, you know, a place to voice opinions on a subject so Midnight could have her project? Thank you

I'm rather irked as well… It's not that hard to remember to be nice and respectful? Even in a debate. And if you find yourself in a position of not being able to maintain that, it's okay to admit you need to take a break (it's totally understandable too) or are unable to continue without coming off a certain way?

I know. I'm gonna unfollow this chat. Nobody needs that drama.
At least Midnight-sama has good material for her debate. Thank God.

We’ve been doing that this whole time. What we need to focus on is being respectful.
In my opinion, if you can’t be respectful, you shouldn’t be debating anything.

I do not support it because I believe my religion is true and my religion says it is wrong. Nonetheless, I do not think it should be legally prohibited. I'm a Libertarian so as long as it doesn't directly hurt someone else, I think you should be free to do it.

Okay see, this is what I wish everyone was like when it comes to stuff like this. You don't have to support everything, or stand for anything you don't believe in, but that shouldn't mean that you should police what others can do only because you don't like it.

I support it of course, because I myself would like to get married to my girlfriend at some point, and I don't really want our future happiness, or even something as simple as being able to see each other in the hospital, to be taken away because other people don't support something that doesn't even have anything to do with them.

I AGREE BEANZ!

Beanz I support you wholeheartedly and agree with everything you said.

Cool! I don't really know what else to say to that, so yeah, thanks I guess, and cool!

I’m more of an in-between. I don’t support it, but I’m not against it, either. My religion prohibits it, but not everyone follows my religion, so I neither speak against it, nor for it. I’m on neutral territory. Everyone has the right to make their own decisions.

Yeah, same

Heyo, this chat looks like it got a lil heated, but I'd like to ask: are there any non-religious reasons why gay marriage should be illegal? Or did we all decide that the legality wasn't under review, but the morality?

I believe that same-sex marriage is totally fine and should not be made out to be bad.

You can explain what you think, but just as we were saying, all beliefs are equal.

What about beliefs like racism?

They may not be good, but they are equal.

I would like to add, please don't attack Christians. I am a Christian and I support same-sex marriage. (Wow this has really blown up! Thanks guys! I don't have time to read this all, but I'll brush over it sometime.)

That seems pretty messed up. I think you are wrong.

I don't believe racism is a good thing, but I think people have the right to believe that. As long as they don't act on it or say anything. Remember, we are talking about beliefs, not actual crimes.

Even though I side with same sex marriage, the only actual problem I see is biological kids. But even that has a soloution

Adoption would be a good solution. It would be more beneficial to give a kid a home than make a new one. At this point in time we do not need to grow the population.

I support same sex marriage because as a gay person, I want to marry the person I love and have all the same benefits/rights as hetero couples.

Alright I'm going to do my best to eloquently say this in the most kind nice, bestest way possible. I personally don't Agree with same Sex marriage, however I also don't think that people who practice same sex marriage are wrong, I do believe that if you love some one it is love and that love shouldn't be denied or called false. It's very difficult to explain where I stand on this topic, I don't Condone the act, but I will support what ever choice an individual makes concerning the topic. I may not agree with the practice but you can bet I'll still be at my Gay best friends wedding celebrating with the rest of the crowd.

That's a good way to think. You seem very kind I like appreciate that you respect other people's views.
