Our neighboring state has a civil union law for gay couples so they can get insurance etc.What do you think? R

Hiya, I think gay couples have every right in getting married because they are people just like straight people so why should they be denied the right to marry the person they love. xx

I think it is okay. I would not do that myself, but to each his own as they say. My friends are gay and married, and my university professor is gay and married as well.

I have nothing against them. I don't have any reason to hate gays just as long as they don't harm anyone in the society. Talking about gay marriages, I have no problem with it. They're also human beings and they can do anything they want. I was taught to respect people so that's what I'm doing now. Plus, I have lots of gay friends and they make me happy.;)

So gabs has got to you with the change the avatar thing too then! Ok back onto the topic! I don't see why gay couples should not get married. They should have absolutely the same rights as any straight couple do - who should say that a gay couple do not love each other and are as committed to each other as any heterosexual couple! We fought for equal rights for women (not personally in my case) so why shouldn't gay couples have equal rights too? I believe gay couples should have the option to get married if that is what they wish to do and good luck too!

I think gay couples should be allowed to marry. I think they should be able to have their spouse as the co insured on their insurance at work. I have no problems with any of these issues because this is how a person was born. If you are gay you can't change that. It is only going to hurt more people in the long run if you try to do that.

i don't have a knowledge about this, but i do respect them. Because they are people also,and what makes them happy is none of my business. I will just advice them to adopt a child to help other organizations and to be a best parent.

Im not here to judge anybody because as easy as it would be to say being gay is a sin its even easier to say ive done alot of other things that were sins.Nobodys perfect and nobody should have to live a life of someone telling them they cant do somthing.Its all about what they feel and them being ready to be judged by God himself.Ive made mistakes and i hate it when people judge me for it or preach to me because of it.I have gay friends.I look at them as human.
