Cardinal Slams Gay Marriage As 'Madness'
Try and find something he said that's true in that article.
I guess he got part of a sentence right, with "...all the legal rights of marriage are already available to homosexual couples...".
Pity, i don't round up.
Bah, who am i kidding; you're probably one of the peeps who buys into every word of it.
Piffle. As the basis for the world's largest religion it can hardly be considered unpopular
But you are understood by people with different agendas. The problem is that your outdated views are not supportable. The cardinal trotted out all the usual scaremonger arguments without providing a single shred of evidence to support any of his claims. If he wants to be taken seriously then he should bring something worthwhile and supportable to the debate, not just spout nonsense.
Not true. It matters not if I think the bible is outdated if it has something to offer in support of your arguments. However, there is no point debating if you have nothing to support your argument.If you, and others, consider the bible to be outdated, then there is no further point to debating.
I only base my beliefs on God's Holy unerrant Word, and if He says it is wrong that is good enough for me!!
So, if you can find something in the bible which shows how same sex marriage will lead to any of the various claimed breakdowns in the fabric of society then bring it on.
Try this one then: Every single country that has brought in SSM has had a drop in the marriage rate.
Given how many marriages end up in divorce,

Not many in comparison to cohabitation. On starting a cohabiting relationship, within 5 years 40% will have married, 50% will have split up and only 10% will still be unmarried cohabitees. Given that the majority of marriages last for the rest of the couple's lives, I think marriage is still in great health when compared to the alternatives.
Most beliefs held on "God's Holy unerrant Word" when it comes to homosexuality isn't even remotely in the scriptures.

Really? Maybe you should read Romans Ch 1 v. 18 to the end of the Ch.
So he punished people with homosexuality for idol worship. Like I mentioned.
What's your point?
Perhaps I have a different translation to you but mine says nothing about:Maybe you should read Romans Ch 1 v. 18 to the end of the Ch.
God's Word is for all of humanity past, present and future. Same God, same word which is the only measure that will be used on Judgement Day!!

What's your point?
Perhaps I have a different translation to you but mine says nothing about:
- same sex marriage
- redefining marriage for heterosexuals
- effects on children
- polygamy/polyandry
Well I'm sure you and God will be very happy after judgement day. Remind us all why that gives you and that bigot O'Brien any right to force your religious morals on gays who just want to marry the person they love?
