[QUOTE="soberups, post: 1002914, member: 14668"] At one time in this country, "millions of us" defined [I]human beings[/I] differently by denying basic human rights to people with black skin. Marriage is a[I] civil rights[/I] issue and should not be subject to the whims of public opinion any more than segregation was. [I]All[/I] individuals...not just straight people...should be free to define marriage in whatever manner suits their religious or personal beliefs. However... It should [I]not[/I] be up to the goverment to pick and choose which couples are allowed to receive benefits (married tax rates, social security etc.) based upon religious beliefs. If you dont believe in gay marriage, then by all means dont marry a gay person. But quit charging couples a "gay tax" just because their definition of marriage does not align with yours. [/QUOTE]
