'Gay Marriage' Opposition on the Rise

Posted on Jul 5, 2007 | by Michael Foust

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (BP)--Opposition to both "gay marriage" and same-sex civil unions is on the increase, according to a new Pew Research poll.

The survey of 1,010 adults shows that by a margin of 57-32 percent, Americans oppose allowing homosexual couples to "marry." The last time opposition was this high and support this low was in December 2004, when Americans opposed "gay marriage" by a margin of 61-32 percent.

Back-to-back Pew polls in July 2005 and March 2006 showed opposition to such "marriages" at only 53 percent and 51 percent, respectively. But since then, opposition in four new polls has stood at 55, 56, 55 and now 57 percent. In the current poll, 38 percent "strongly" oppose "gay marriage" while only 12 percent "strongly" favor it. The poll was conducted in February and March and released July 1.

I voted other, because there is no such thing as "gay marriage". By definition of marriage alone, it is an impossability and will never be considered legitamate.

Oh, and please stop riding the coat tails of racial equality, we really do not appreciate you tarnishing our struggles.

You can take the word "marriage" and define it however the heck you want, I don't care. But homosexuals deserve, and will eventually get, all the legal rights that go along with whatever you define. :)
Of course they will. In a few years, people will finally realize that there hasn't been one good reason presented that justifies outlawing same-sex marriage.

we take offense when you join your gay rights movement to our struggle for racial equality. stop it please.
Who is "we?" You? Stop claiming that the racial equality movement is yours. Obviously, racial equality is not for just one race, but for all races. And if you care so deeply about civil rights, why are you so eager to separate yourself from another persecuted minority group? You self-indulging hypocrite.

such language is quite unbecoming of a lady.

race is immutable and innocuous. depravity is not.

What is so depraved about homosexuals not being treated as second-class citizens in their own country?

reading comprehension again, i see a pattern....

rather than diagram the sentences for you, it is not the treatment you allege that is bepraved. It is the behaviour you advocate that is depraved.
