I'm writing a paper for my English class expressing the con's and pro's of Same-Sex marriage. It's not very easy, since I obviously oppose to the reasons why gay marriage shouldn't be legal. I'm not talking about religious marriage, because a religion is a religion and you should respect it's "laws", therefore you shouldn't try to change it, but if we're talking politically, I believe everyone should have the right to marry who ever they want, but here's the trick, if people could marry anyone they want, why shouldn't polygamous couples marry? You know, those men that have 5 wives, if two men were able to marry? But then again, I don't care if they marry a dog, and five women. It's their boat. Just as marijuana, I don't do it and I don't like it, but I don't care about other people doing it--and the only reason why I haven't signed a petition to legalize the Green, is because its smell gives me the biggest and most nauseating headaches.
But something that really does bother me is all these con's based on religious beliefs, no one is fighting for a religious right to marry in a church, we just want the same rights for health care, insurance, etc. But then again, marriage is not something that is very important to me, so therefore I don't mind much about legalizing gay marriage--because you don't need a paper to tell you you're married forever, but to know that you have the right as any heterosexual couple is something that I care for.
I'll post my paper later on.
