Although it won't create a family of a mother father and children, it won't destroy one either.   If two people of the same sex marry in Iowa, it won't effect my family relationships one bit.   Even if they live next door.

 

Society does not bestow the benefits you liberals are using for your justification for your cause. The big bad capitalist companies do.

I know big bad capitalist companies control much of the government and economy but I thought we, society, still contributed something.

Who decided married couples could file joint returns?

Davie...you guys lost the election that showed overwhelmingly that judges deciding *for* gay marriage were shown the door. If you don't like the common moral attitude in Iowa, that's your problem.


BS

You have to get a bit more than 54% to qualify as an overwhelming defeat.   But conservatives count votes in victories differently.   They still consider Reagan's first election as president as overwhelming.

Looks like you have short term memory problems, Mobay.  Go back and read some of the early posts in this thread for an explanation of how gay marriage will (and has in Scandinavia) harmed the traditional family unit.

 

I don't accept your Norway studies.   Nowhere did I see proof of cause and effect.  Just because two trends happen at the same time doesn't mean the one caused the other.   But a zealot who wants to make an argument can try to make one believe it.

If you think you can convince the IRS to allow your pet to file joint income tax return, you might have a good reason to try it.   What other reason do you have?

What the heck does this post mean?  Please expatiate. What other reasons for what?  You are starting to make less sense than usual.

 


Being allowed to file joint tax returns is one reason people of the same sex want their right to be married upheld.   I thought that was a given by now.

"What other reason do you have?"   That question is for you.
