What do you think?
Does the state have the right to do what Bush wants and Congress is considering? Discuss.

I think the president has a lot of nerve, daring to tell people who they ought to love and how they ought to live their lives. I read a book something like that, full of ideas I am sure he would agree with...1984, by George Orwell. Next we'll be needing licenses to have children.
Marriage is a custom, not a legal issue. Since legal aspects have been attached to it, people with their own customs ought to be permitted the legal benefits. In this country, one spouse is the custom. However, a visiting royal Muslim family, consisting of one husband and the maximum four wives, would be accorded the same legal respect.
How does the President feel about monogamy? I think he is talking out both sides of his mouth. How does the president feel about marriage? I don't think even he knows...I think someone whacked him upside the head with a Bible and decided for him.
Sorry Mr. President...sprout a pair of balls and chip the ice from your heart.

i would agree, more for couples who have lethal or damaging gene combo's, than for sociological reasons.Preppy Raver wrote:some people should have a license to have childern!
now i dont mean this in a bad way, but damn, little girls and mothers on welfare having babies left and right!
with the advances (and lack of regulation) involved in fertility treatments, many if not most couples who have the money can force themselves to get pregnant. the problem is, sterility has a purpose, in preventing dangereous gene combinations from being spread. at the least, i think a reproductive assay should be done on anyone attempting to use forced fertility treatments, and if it comes back negetive, the procedures should not be done.

Exactly. It's called "natural selection". I couldn't agree with that more.bitterchemical wrote:sterility has a purpose, in preventing dangereous gene combinations from being spread. at the least, i think a reproductive assay should be done on anyone attempting to use forced fertility treatments, and if it comes back negetive, the procedures should not be done.
Intersting how that works out..The people that can care for children and truely want them, can't have them on their own. The ones that shouldn't ever have them...are blessed with more than they know what to do with.TOY CRUSHER wrote:Exactly. It's called "natural selection".

Dual sex marriages seem like it would help in that aspect. Most gay couples attept to adopt. .....when i was in highschool i did a bill for my youth and government club (debate club..my first year in it)...about same sex marriages. I def think it should be legal. WHY NOT. Seems like some where church and government never seperated. hmm how interesting. Its all paper and numbers anyway. .
......your born (birth certif. social sec. #)
.....you get to drive (another set of numbers and more paper)
.....you graduate (a diploma)
.....you fall in love and make a solid commitment to someone (marriage licence, paper and more numbers)
.....you die (more fucking paper..DEATH CERTIF.)
i'm rambling...but i think most people see this. I don't feel like i need a piece of paper and numbers to feel alive, to travel, to learn, to love or to die.
Maybe i'll just get married and sign that dotted line when a man can give birth.

Something more than nothing
