What has actually happened is our resident detective extraordinaire conservatives have made the startling revelation the the geyz were nothing more than a pawn in the left's grand scheme to have six year old's endlessly masturbating.
For the good of society, thank god we had them around to foil such pursuits.
I won't spoil it for you
The stats speak for themselves.
Marry for love, divorce for hate.

I didn't know stats devolved into sentences... But there you go.
I didn't know that either, I just presumed intelligent people could make inferences based on them. Like the 50% divorce rate in western countries for example.

Probably, NAMBLA and PIE were part of the gay rights movement in the 70s after all. Foucault (from which all social justice and post modernism descends) actively advocated for abolishing age of consent laws. So did Roz Ward.

So because something was part of a movement in the 70's, that means that means it set in stone 40 years later.

Problem is, there are always Greeks hidden in the Trojan horse.So because something was part of a movement in the 70's, that means that means it set in stone 40 years later.

Have you seen the main board? It's at least as much of a cesspool as SRP is.
At least on the main board the worst get sent to the bay. Here they just sit there with the same Sad Angry Losers mutually masturwanking to nirvana.

The trend towards childless marriages has been picking up pace for a while, I see no reason why same sex marriage should have a significant impact on that.
Childless couples 'on track to be Australia's most common family type'
A society dominated by childless couples could become Australia's reality, with data analysis suggesting they will become the most common family type by 2023.mobile.abc.net.au
The article doesn't mention marriage, childless or otherwise.
I'm more than happy to go there
My friends will be there. So will most of my family. The music I like will be playing. As I understand it there's no footy or beer or pro-wrestling in heaven so I'm more than happy to take the down escalator.

Post of thread.Brilliant! If theists want us to be a religion, then I say we own it. We should have the ability to discriminate as well.
BTW there are some amusing assertions about the role of marriage in western society in this thread. Some actual facts regarding marriage to digest:
- The vast majority of marriages have (and still remain) a contract between families
- As a result, marriage between cousins is common throughout the world (Jerry Lee Lewis anyone?)
- The Catholic Church took over the secular concept of marriage in the 12th century. It had nothing to do with religion prior.
- The Bible is huge on polygamy.
- The concept of marriage being about love and equals is very new
History of Marriage: 13 Surprising Facts
Though marriage is now seen as love between equals, throughout history it has had a radically different definitionwww.livescience.com
Oh and while we're on it. Yep, the Western World is definitely the better model. Not because of Christianity or being White or whatever - it's because the Western World adopted the scientific enlightenment before the rest of the world. Check out the life expectancy across the world pre-the scientific enlightenment.
Life Expectancy
When and why did the average age at which people die increase and how can we make further progress against early death?ourworldindata.org
Oh and the relative recent adoption of democracy took off in Western societies as well.
Part of the adoption of the scientific enlightenment is the adoption of secular ideals - one of which is the idea that marriage should be based on the idea of love and attraction rather than forcing unwilling participants into unloving unions (which you could hazard a guess were often bad for at least one of the participants, if not all). Hence marriage equality furthers the ideal that marriage should be based on two loving participants. And on we progress.

"actively tells young people that they shouldn't do it"
What? Society tells people to have kids all the time. We live in a society where not having kids is to be ostracised.
People feel sad when reflecting about not having kids. Then go and have fun doing all the things couples with kids cant do.
Having kids make you happier upon reflection. But in the moment having kids mostly makes you less happy most of the time. Boy they are annoying and restrictive and a lot of work and cost a fortune. People spend 95 percent of their day living in the moment and only 5 percent reflecting. So who actually is happier?
Definitely the worst post of the thread.
