Nobody has anything to say? Why am I not surprised?

Maybe because it's being discussed in this thread...

In Oklahoma, it is against the state constitution for members of the same sex to marry, and quite frankly I believe that it should remain so.
I am an Evangelical Christian Conservative, registered Republican, and member of the local Tea Party. In Oklahoma, it is against the state constitution for members of the same sex to marry, and quite frankly I believe that it should remain so. I worked very hard with people across the state to place that on the ballot and it won with a huge margin. I believe that like abortion, the issue is within the perview of the state.
Having said that, I also believe that what goes on in one's own house is that person's business. I believe that this young man is very impressive and his parents should be very proud of him.

You believe that what goes on in a person's home - and presumably their personal lives - is that person's business, yet you support a ban on gay marriage? Surely you can see the hypocrisy in your own statement?

I don't. Sex is not the same thing as Marriage. And I repeat, if the criteria for marriage is simply 2 consenting adults then why can't siblings marry each other or family members marry each other?

I'm sorry, but that's ridiculous. That's the same argument that another conservative made - except he said something about marrying a horse or something.
If two people of the same sex marry each other it doesn't mean that brothers and sisters, or people and horses will make a run for the altar. It's a weak argument. Period.
And it is a completely hypocritical stance to say that you believe what goes on in a person's home is their business while simultaneously saying that that same person shouldn't be allowed to marry a person of the same sex.

I REPEAT, if the criteria for marriage is simply the requirement it be two consenting adults then why can't family members that are adults marry each other? And I never said it would become a problem. And yes it is a valid comparison. You just don't like it because it involves incest.

I'm sure some law could be crafted that wouldn't allow blood relatives to marry each other. Perhaps on the basis that incest can produce deformities, which could be considered child endangerment or something like that. I'm no expert; just a thought.
