French Senate passes gay marriage and adoption

hooray for France, now all of the US gays can apply for french citizenship and become gay frogs.

And Redfish Doubles Down! :clap2::clap2::clap2:

should I have said snails? But seriously, if gay couples are seeking acceptance, why not immigrate to France?

Because in France, the people are beating the shit out of gays. Which is probably better than England where they are being burned alive.
 
Sad but true.

Hardly traditional, but it is always amusing to see others who don't know me, my family or my circumstances make it up as they go along. I would just love to hear what you think happened and just how it was that I got married at 15. Please, let your fantasy run wild. Let's hear it.

was there a shotgun involved?

Only the one pointed at me.

I really want to hear what stories you could make up. This could be fun.

beheaded in saudi arabia-------but "the world is changing its views of homosexuality" Sure it is :confused:
 
French Senate approves crucial marriage equality measure | The Raw Story

The upper house approved the article overnight by a vote of 179 to 157, with all Senators from the ruling Socialists voting in favour and five from the main opposition right-wing UMP breaking ranks with their colleagues to approve it.


Only 5 conservative senators voted in favour. The UMP leader, a non-practicing jew, supports and attends mass demonstrations against the bill. The german CDU/CSU is against equal rights, specially the bavarian CSU. Even in the UK a majority of tory MPs (136 vs 127) voted against their own party's government.

So european conservatives are to the left of US Democrats? :eusa_eh:

The European conservatives are against gay marriage. So how does this lead you to believe they are to the left of US Demcrats?

in france a majority want to sanction gay marriage------funny how that majority rules thing works, isn't it?
 
The French Revolution decriminalized and normalized homosexuality. How did that work out for them? How long did it last? The age of consent was 11.

If this was a value that improved France, wouldn't it have been kept?

The majority doesn't want gay marriage. The politicians passed a law imposing it on an willing population. Although some polls did show that a majority supported same sex marriage, those polls were wrong OR, the minority that opposed same sex marriage was significant enough to fight back. Which they are doing. There is no majority supporting same sex couple adoptions. So it is funny how that majority thing works, isn't it?
 
There's your "traditional" marriage.

Sad but true.

Hardly traditional, but it is always amusing to see others who don't know me, my family or my circumstances make it up as they go along. I would just love to hear what you think happened and just how it was that I got married at 15. Please, let your fantasy run wild. Let's hear it.

You tell us. I'm sure your story makes getting married at 15 TOTALLY logical.
 
The people are being forced to accept same sex marriage as it does traditional marriage and that's where the imposition is.

They are being FORCED to have a gay marriage? Really? Or are OTHER citizens allowed something that they already have. How does that impose on them? Give us some clear facts on how gay marriage IMPOSES on those who do not desire to have a gay marriage.

Ask the bakery that refused to bake a wedding cake for a ssme sex wedding if gay marriage imposes anything on them.

Same-sex Civil Marriage laws have no impact on a bakery choosing to service customers or not. The issue is Public Accommodation laws, this mythical bakery (since you haven't posted a link to the story) would have also violated the law if they had refused to bake a cake for an interracial couple, a black (or white couple), or an interfaith couple.

Here is a link to a baker with the situation you descibe -->> Bakery Denies Same-Sex Couple Wedding Cake - ABC News


There are no Same-sex Civil Marriages in Oregon, since 2004 the Oregon Constitution has said "It is the policy of Oregon, and its political subdivisions, that only a marriage between one man and one woman shall be valid or legally recognized as a marriage." Therefore the issue isn't Same-sex Civil Marriage, which is between the State and the couple, the problem is Public Accommodation laws and that the baker refused services based on sexual orientation offered to the general public.

Same with the "famous" New Mexico photographer, there is not Same-sex Civil Marriage in New Mexico, however the photographer refused to provide services to a lesbian couple in violation of that States Public Accommodation laws.


(As I've previously stated, such laws as they apply to private businesses should be repealed. But the reality is the issues raised are not a function of Civil Marriage.

Sure it's traditional.

Parents used to decide who was going to marry who all the time.

Does that baker live in a state which has equal access laws? If that baker does, the same would have happened if they refused a black couple, or a Jewish couple.

Well?

“Marriage is between a man and a woman with a view to procreation. Two men or two women will never be able to have children!” UMP Senator Charles Revet said during the debate.


By the way, gay marriage was clearly presented in Hollande's election manifesto in 2012. Everybody knew it. Including the 90% of french muslims who voted for socialist Hollande in the second round. It does not mean that 90% of french muslims support gay marriage. Not at all :cool:

Didn't the French also once invent a tank with 1 forward gear and 4 reverse?
