Marriage is a God ordained institution as a union between a man and a woman. They become one flesh, and this is the way God designed the family unit. Hell made it war against itself and now we have problems!!!! High divorece. Prisons are full of men from single mother households!!! So that is my take and a little bit of my stand on the issue!!!!

Evolution is first an atheistic, materialistic world view. In other words, the primary reason for its acceptance has little to do with the evidence for or against it. Evolution is accepted because men are atheists by faith and thus interpret the evidence to cor-respond to their naturalistic philosophy.

V, it's extremely rude to ask someone if they take anti-depressants. I wouldn't ask even my own close friends and family that question; people's medical conditions are private. But you like to put people on the defensive because it makes you feel strong, right?

As it so happens, I don't take them. But I certainly would take them without hesitation if I needed them. It's abusive to assign shame to anyone for treating mental symptoms. And just so you know, because you are easily the most ignorant person I've cyber-met, depression is, at least in part, a biochemical condition (a serotonin imbalance.

I own about a dozen pair of shoes, most of which are running shoes. I actually hate buying shoes; my feet are very narrow and I end up having to pay a fortune for a pair that fit. So I don't own many.

And my former-almost-husband just bought me an expensive piece of jewelry for my birthday. He and I are still very close; he is an honorable and kind man.

I'm sorry that you can't relate to women as individuals and can only see them as your (largely incorrect) stereotypes. That could be partly why you have a series of ex-wives. Although I suspect the main reason is that you are abusive.

"Marriage is a God ordained institution as a union between a man and a woman."

First show that god exists, then you can show that he made marriage for men and women only.

"High divorece."

Are you saying that the high divorece rate is caused my homosexual marrigages?

"Prisons are full of men from single mother households!!!"

Um, is this another assertion or do you have statistics to back it up?

Why continue? Because we must. Because we have the call. Because it is nobler to fight for rationality without winning than to give up in the face of continued defeats. Because whatever true progress humanity makes is through the rationality of the occasional individual and because any one individual we may win for the cause may do more for humanity than a hundred thousand who hug their superstitions to their breast.

I have one ex-wife and a 65% chance another one is on the way...
All the women I know feel they can say and do anything they please, I speak back verbally, and I rule my roost just fine. I have never hit a woman in my life, but I will hit a woman if she hits me first, especially a woman I don't know, that is well within the law. So lady don't hit me first in public, you won't be a happy camper. Chivalry has gone out my window in this country.

Has nothing to do with what goes on around you? The fact most lead empty lives, void of any type of fulfillment or service to others, can cause depression. With a drug industry that would sell anti-depressants to dogs and infant humans if they could!!!


Hmmm I don't feel like your telling me the truth on these things...I can tell that I hit the nail on the head on a few things...we will never know the truth with you, unless one of my friends dates you. But I am sure most of my buddies would pass, Mickey would. He'd go out with you once, especially if your a size 4.

So easily Renae's point was proven... I'm amazed.

OK, so we're back to the reading comprehension problem again.
No, that was not what Renae said. She said that depression can partly be attributed to a biochemical condition

was going to say something.... then I remember that I am officially ignoring verlch.

So I'll say it again, lets ALL just ignore his stupidity.

That certainly goes against what GOD says in the BIBLE, doesn't it? Turn the other cheek! You're a pitiful example of a Christian. I don't think even Christianity itself would allow to have members like you.

What the HELL does Mickey have to do with anything???? Unless one of your friends dates her? I think it's about time you canceled your account with Skeptic Friends.

What's the problem with that? You've basically told us "the Bible is the standard by which we all should live," yet you cannot seem to live up to that standard. That's the basic hypocrisy which you are displaying: you set the standards for the behaviour of others, but don't hold yourself to that same standard.

But don't you see? That's the perfect time to judge. satans_mom and others here aren't held to a "judge not, lest ye be judged" standard. You are. Deal with it.

Actually, I'm no Biblical scholar, but I believe I've shown that I know the Bible better than you do, verlch, on at least two ocassions. And congrats on parading your ignorance as a badge of honor, yet again.

Sorry to butt in here friend, but how could you be satisfied with your arch-nemesis, the epitome of evil in your life, the supreme bad guy of bad guys, know more about something that you devote your entire life to? If I were you I would find this disturbing.

I mean the reason I read and post here (and read the Bible among other things) is to constantly learn more. You know it may be a cliche, but knowledge is power my friend.

Four more completely unsupported assertations. Typical.

Religious marriage is unaffected by extending the rights of civil marriage to same sex couples. The whole debate around the Marriage amendment centers around blurring this line.

Civil marriages between same sex couples put exactly zero burden on religions as the religion is not compelled to recognize nor perform them.

Let's be absolutely clear about the differences between civil marriages and religious marriages.

Religious marriages are subject to the particular dogmas of that religion. If religious marriages and civil marriages were absolutely congruent, then atheists couldn't get married.

Civil marriages only extend the following privelidges to individuals.

1) The right to direct the medical care of an incapacitated partner
2) Shared custody of minor children
3) Rights of property succession
4) comingiling of assets
5) various tax benefits/burdens
6) The ability to gain medical coverage for partners

Now, as soon as you can explain to me rationally how extending these contractual obligations and benefits to homosexual couples damages religious marriage, I'll be willing to take you seriously. And "rationally" does not include "because I said so" or "because it offends God". Again, we are not talking about religious marriage (which the government is forbidden to make any ruling on per the First Amendment).

It's put up or shut up time.

Any group set up on earth that is supported in the bible is under attack...A gay man and a gay journalist have just as much free will as another guy, but to make gay marriage equal to the union between a man and a woman is unnatural!!! You can be married to the peice that fits the puzzle (woman) or choose to go against nature and god and get no benefits...

Are you the same guy that wants anything referring to God out of the public view, including prayer?
