Reply to "Is Same-Sex Marriage A Civil Right?"

quote:
Yes, they have the same rights you and I. They have the right to marry and to even have children -- the same as you and I.

Today, we all can marry. But, we cannot marry children, we cannot marry our pet sheep, we cannot marry five spouses -- and we cannot marry a person of the same sex. We all have that same right under the law.

So, what's the problem?

I want to make sure I understand you correctly. You're ok with the government deciding who can and can't get married? If the government only permitted people to marry within their race, would you defend that by saying "everyone has the same right to marry a person of the opposite sex and the same race, so anyone who wants to do something else wants a 'special right?'"
