Do you want to get married?

We're celebrating our 8th anniversary in a couple of days.

I'd love to get married.

Marriage is nothing but a civil contract.

I would love to marry my girlfriend if only it was legal here.

Will you marry me?

Would a simple Yes have killed ya'?

I'm married to the most wonderful woman in the world!!

I AM MARRIED TO THE SWEETEST MAN IN THE WORLD

Justina only has to say yes!

I want to get married, but not anytime soon. I will get married when I'm older and when I meet the right person (I already have!!!) and when my life is stable. When I am ready for it.

And not if. When.

Getting married is cool only if it's with the right person at the right time under the correct circumstances (which if it's the right person, circumstances should be correct and time should be right).

I am married, and I want to stay married.

I want to get married for legal purposes not because I feel that my relationship should be recognised before God or whoever. Married couples get benefits that unmarried ones don't. Simple as that for me!

Well that's a much simpler way of putting what I was trying to say!

Never ever.

I read your mind! I'm psychic

Spooky.............

*Now* I should go and answer the survey about SC surveys reflecting events!

To you? nah.

Let me think about it!

Sure. Take your time!

hhhhmmm, i didn't choose one of the answers because i didn't like the choices. i am not interested in the sacrament of marriage as it is known although i would like to have some of the benefits of marriage.

I love you Baby.

**smootch**

Don't be sad, honey. At least we get to be together! *kiss*

Sheesh! You guys are so sappy!

Really, I'm very happy for you. Ain't love grand?!

We luv eachother very much Thanks. I love Love don't you?

*kiss*

I new this was gonna be another opportunity for all of you guys to express how much you love each other. Woman on woman, man on man. There's a reason it's illegal for you to marry!

I wanna get married, but no in next 10 years.

there are a lot of stupid reasons for a lot of stupid things...

You are filtered dear sir!

Have you ever worn clothing that's technically for men? Because that's right up there in Deuteronomy with people of the same sex having sexual intercourse. What about wearing something made of a blended fabric? You're so self-righteous. You need to read John 8:7 again.

I thought you did that a long time ago...and I am female!

I agree with you there, but this isn't a stupid reason or a stupid law.

and you need to read Romans 1

Not with the history of divorce in my family. My father was married 4 times & divorced 3 times (the last one died in a drowning accident), my grandmother (paternal) was married twice (first husband was abusive) and my sister is on her second marriage. Not to mention the fact that there is no place I could get legally married in the U.S. as I am gay. All we have is civil union which is not recognized in many states.

Oscar you are such an butt-hole! Jesus said, "Judge not that ye be judged" and "If you are pure of heart, then you may cast the first stone."

I'm sure Enheduanna has read it.

Your hatred toward homosexuals appears to be a minority view around here, so I don't know why you keep going on about it. Do you think you're going to change anyone's mind? Why can't you just live and let live? Strangely enough, you're not making me angry today. I'm just finding your narrow-mindedness rather pathetic. I think you were getting picked on, so you wanted to target someone else to vent your frustration. Whatever...

I realize that it's the minority view, and I really don't care. It doesn't change any facts whether or not you guys agree with me. I'm not really out to change anyone's mind either. I just think that you ought to know that your lifestyle is sinful.

so is your idea of truth

I'm fully aware of how your religious beliefs cause you to view my "lifestyle". I happen to disagree, and I don't need you preaching to me.

The only people she's preaching to our the converted. No one who doesn't already subsrcibe to her belief structure is gonna fall for her line of bullcrap.

That's for sure.

If you believe in reading antiquated laws out of context, then I assume that you also always keep your head covered while you pray (1 Corinthians 11:5-6), that you never speak in church (1 Corinthians 14:34-35), and that you don't wear fancy clothes or jewelry and that you are always subservient to men (1 Timothy 2:9-15). Maybe you should focus on Matthew 7:12 and 22:39 a little more.

You're fabulous!

Thanks. So are you!

I am impressed by your knowledge of the Bible. Not too many people are as well aware of the Biblical laws as you are. I do always keep my head covered, I don't speak in church, I attire myself in modest attire, and I am subservient to men.
Anything else you would like to try on me?

::watching with glazed, distant eyes::

Oh, I've got plenty of things I'd like to try on you, but I won't.
I assume you belong to one of those Christian sects that follows only the laws of the New Testament, not the Old. Otherwise I can think of plenty more ways in which I'm sure you're a total hypocrite.

Please do go for the kill, Enhe!

But I am sure you know so much more than her you could dig a big hole for her to step in lol

I never claimed not to be hypocritical. I am in no way one of those "holier than thou" people. I try not to be hypocritical, but I am aware of the fact that I fall short. Anyone that claims differently would be lying.

Well, that certainly doesn't come across in your attitude towards homosexuality.

I doubt I will ever get married. I've got to the point where I think all men are disgusting and the thought of even having a relationship makes me feel sick. Not only have I been hurt over and over again, but my parents are divorced and I know how much devastation a relationship break up causes.

Not *all* men are disgusting, HB!

Do you reckon?

yep, but you'll find out eventually

it's just a firm belief

That's obvious. Nonetheless, it's not for you to judge. If you are the Christian that you claim to be, then you must also believe that it is only for God to judge people's actions. All the gay, lesbian, and bisexual people here know that you think what they're doing is sinful. You are no more likely to convince them to stop than I am to convince you that your interpretation of the Bible is outdated and irrelevant. I think the best you can do is show them the love that, as a Christian, you are supposed to show all people. All that your berating them does is make them feel towards you and many Christians the way you feel towards homosexuality.

When I meet the right person, have the right job and have a stable life on my own. Then I would consider it.

I am married.

I am not the marrying type. I have a bit of a conflict, though, because I like being a mother. I wish I had known that before I got married.I don't even want to live with anyone (except my kids).

I would love to get remarried to my current husband

Love...yes, but acceptance...no.
I am not supposed to condone their ways.

Love....yes?
You have never once shown love here. You wish jerks dead and people with AIDS eliminated.
I don't think that's loving.
My faith tells me god doesn't think that's loving.
I think you're confused. I think you're afraid of being punished by god unless you outright HATE homosexuals. Are you afraid of god?

Yeah, we all feel the love.

Yes, I do fear God...as I am supposed to. I do not hate homosexuals. I don't remember ever saying that I did either.

You said they piss you off. You said you wished jerks wouldn't breathe. That isn't hate?

that is not hatred. I believe that there is a huge difference between hatred and dislike. I simply have a strong dislike.

One does not "get married", one "commits marriage".

Done it twice.My present husband treats me like a queen.I've loved him for 29 years.Don't want nobody else.God help me if he should die before me I wouldn't want to live.
