    You don't marry your close blood relations because you love them.

    The fact that you can't tell the difference between those types of love is worrying.

    I don't think you posting like that is necessary, who said anything about women voting, racial rights?

    You took one line out of my post and didn't deal with the rest of it. That lacks you putting yourself into a position to understand why someone might not support it.

    Love doesn't mean marriage is necessary. You don't marry your close blood relations because you love them.
    If I loved another man, it doesn't mean marriage is needed because other men might also love another man and they might want marriage.

    I'm never going to understand your point of view. This is exactly the same as women vote and other civil rights movements. As things stand the gay community do not have the same rights as the rest of us. We have the choice to get married and they do not. How can you possibly be ok with that?

    I believe in equal rights for all. You clearly do not, which is fine I suppose, but something that I am never going to understand. Hitler had the same idea.

    Your points are completely ridiculous. You have written dozens of anti-gay comments going back months.

    I just wonder why?

    Who says I can't?

    It is not like people who did not know their sibling and fell in love with them didn't plan on marriage, because they didn't know they should be allowed marry?

    Did you dip that argument in an oestrogen stream?

    I did, and in other news Japan removed the compulsory nature of receiving the vaccine.

    No,no you didn't. You cited the cdc report that points out there is no casual link between serious ailments and the vaccine. You addressed nothing.

    I posted articles on how gay people will find themselves abused by nefarious people who will use the cover of SSM for respectability purposes, with the intention of adopting a child to abuse.
    I posted about actual cases in Australia and in the UK. In Australia, the media had this couple of men who were fighting for same sex marriage (as a cover I believe), ABC reported what a great couple they were and how they deserved to be allowed to marry. They had this child at the time, ABC didn't know the two men who later did marry, were taking the child around the world to be abused by other child abusers.
    In the UK two men were fostering children, they were abusing the children, the social worker reported how she feared being branded homophobic when she first became concerned for the children.

    I saw how the church was used by child abusers for respectability and easy access to children. We saw how all priests were branded as paedophile priests by some, we don't want the same type of abuse being directed at good gay people.
    We see hoe child abusers go to where they believe it will be easy to access children - scouts, teachers, swimming coaches, fake same sex couples where people are afraid to challenge because some people like name calling...

    Heterosexual couples will also abuse children. Should we also stop them from adopting because some of them may try use it as a cover for abusing kids?

    It is not me forcing my morals on anyone, a referendum is to ask the people for their views on a certain subject.
    Otherwise we should do away with democracy and just allow the government to change the constitution without asking what the people want.
    A majority may want same sex marriage, a majority may not want it. It will be the people who decide, to say one is imposing their morals is a nonsensical argument as voting yes is also someone voting for what they believe is moral. .


    By voting against it, you prevent it, therefore forcing your morality on others. It's not a referendum to see how many people like the idea.

    Sometimes it seems only liberal morals are excepted, if not liberal one is likely to be branded something like morally reprehensible..

    Liberal allows you to remain catholic/protestant and not be gay, or gay marry.

    If you vote against gay marriage in a referendum, you only believe in what "freedom" suits you.

    We already have single people who can adopt so gay couples can already adopt.
    Marriage gives the couple more points in terms of being stable for a child.

    That's because they're as competent parents as a straight couple. But given your statements throughout this topic,it's not exactly shocking that you don't really like to rely on facts.

    I scare you lol :pac:

    My policies are keep marriage as it - oh that scares you.
    I believe we should respect human life - oh that scares you too.
    I believe we should reduce pollution and look after the environment whether one believes in man made climate change or not.
    I believe in vaccination programs and I do invest in biotech companies that produce vaccines, I just believe we should not pretend there aren't risks or rare risks.
    I believe we should speak and treat others with common courtesy and not call other names, as a person who was bullied as a child, I know the effects this can have on a person.
    I believe it is better to give than to receive, as one never knows when they may need to receive in return.
    I believe we should not be anti-immigration which some seem to be, we must remember that the Irish have emigrated for generations and we would like people to accept us.

    If I scare you, then you must live in fear.

    You scare me because you don't believe in equal rights for all. Which is a pretty horrifying and backwards thing to believe in in 2014. It's not 1924 anymore.

    http://www.smh.com.au/national/named-the-australian-paedophile-jailed-for-40-years-20130630-2p5da.html
    Standing before an American court convicted of the most heinous of child sex crimes, the double lives of Australian citizen Mark J. Newton and his long-term boyfriend Peter Truong were laid bare.
    ‘‘Being a father was an honour and a privilege that amounted to the best six years of my life,’’ the American-born Newton, 42, told the court.
    Moments later Newton was sentenced to 40 years in prison for sexually abusing the boy he and Truong, 36 from Queensland, had ‘‘adopted’’ after paying a Russian woman $8000 to be their surrogate in 2005.
    Police believe the pair had adopted the boy ‘‘for the sole purpose of exploitation’’. The abuse began just days after his birth and over six years the couple travelled the world, offering him up for sex with at least eight men, recording the abuse and uploading the footage to an international syndicate known as the Boy Lovers Network.

    An independent inquiry is to be held into how a gay foster couple duped social services over photographs of young boys in their care whom they abused.

    How can you say that when you refuse to accept I am allowed my own views.
    I don't have to hold your views, I never called anyone a name for not holding my views, yet I have been called names for holding views of other people.

    Lets be straight here on who is forcing views on who.

    no, you carefully selected incidents that backed up your pre-existing bias. If you had quoted facts, you would have a comparison with the number of heterosexual couples who abuse children. Hence my entirely accurate description of it as sick homophobic bile.

    I didn't say you shouldn't be allowed hold your views. What I said was that you are forcing your views on others by voting against gay marriage. Its fairly simple, clear cut and obvious.

    A referendum is asking the opinion of the people. My opinion is not forcing my view on anyone, it is the collective views of the nation that decide what society wants.
    If a majority are against it, should we be forced to have something a majority don't want, is this the type of democracy you want?
