It is very simple.
The fact that a distinction has to be made in the first place, proves that its viewed as inferior. The rights are similar but not the same. It all goes back to 10 pages ago when I mentioned the water fountain metaphor.
a water fountain provides the same thing, water.
one was for blacks.
one was for whites.
how is that saying one is better than the other? common fuckin sense.
Go beyond society, go to your lovable goverment and what they say about gay marriage and how it is evil, unholy, and not normal. Thats how they are being viewed as inferior, is that so fuckin hard to understand? Then again you think reagan was a great president and congress doesn't influence people in their own party and the goverment never discriminated against anyone.
Dude after all your naive posts in here you really need to start some investigative reading on your own, its really sad.

can we all agree that jays is naive, that the government can suck, and that everybody should be equal under the eyes of the law? if we all agree lets move on and go get a pizza.

GonzoStyle Wrote:The government recognizes that there is a distinction between man and woman.The Jays Wrote:Is it a bad thing that they are gay?No but according to you it is ok to seperate marriage and civil union because one is a straight marriage and the other is a gay union. You said the distinction rectifies this since people will always make the distinction and say thats a normal marriage and thats a gay marriage, so its ok by you.
Lets make a seperate category for inter racial marriage too, since there is a distinction there as well.

Quote:One, The schools were public.
There are private schools that I can't go to because I'm not Jewish. There are private schools that Jews can't go to because the schools only want Catholics.
thats the whole point to a private school, its like any private club where dues are paid. The same way you have a church and I have a temple.
Beyond that point you can convert if you wanna go join, no one will stop you, you are free to do so.
as for the public schools, who owns them and who makes the rules for them?

But jays is really really naive about politics and where we came from, its really sad. You are still in school dude, I suggest take the opportunity to take some courses.

and private schools are not allowed to choose on the basis of religion regardless of the religious affiliation of the school.
now lets all agree on my proposal and get pizza.

He woulda fit in great when blacks werent allowed to eat with whites, that was ok to since an establishment technically has the right to refuse service to someone... so that makes it ok.
Its like listening to Bill O'reilly lite.

cause thats what you been saying!!!!!!!
- HedCold - 02-20-2004
why? marriage isn't a necessity and the government doesn't give you any other privileges (i think) for being allowed to do it.

It’s oblivious people like you that make this country sometimes unlivable. Nothings wrong as long as it doesn’t affect your world.
