[Vision2020] Same Sex Marriage Debate pointless.

[Tony]

Same Sex Marriage Debate ReleaseBill, you make the very discerning observation that homosexuality is natural in that these folks were born that way.  Quite true, that is why I prefer the term inappropriate to best describe them.  Pedophilia is also natural by your definition - as is bestiality.  But surely you are not advocating the public sanction of these activities as well?  Our respective genetalia, male and female, were obviously designed to interact for the purposes of procreation.  That there are occasional mix ups in our development in the womb, does not mean that we should nurture and cater to these misdevelopements.  Some characteristic can be quite "natural" yet entirely to be opposed and possibly remedied.  If I were born with a faulty heart valve, would you argue that I should embrace my present condition or seek to address it so that my body might function as it was intended?

Have a good Sunday,  -T

  T-
  take off your blinders and you will note that homosexuality is quite natural.  Homosexuals are inherently, at the core of their being, homosexual.  They were wired that way, just as others were wired as heterosexual.

  I just think, given the obvious complex nature of brains and bodies and identities, that human sexuality is a continuum from absolutely hetero to absolutely homosexual.  It's all natural.  And it's only fair that we allow the law to recognize marriage between loving couples.

    Bill, why would anyone bother attending a debate on such a completely unnatural and patently inappropriate concept as "gay marriage"?  There is, and never will be, any such thing.  Marriage was and always will be between a male and female for the purposes of providing a stable environment for the raising of offspring.  Must we continue to patronize these maladjusted freaks who would pervert society to reflect their own warped perspectives?

        Moscow, ID - ASUI Vandal Entertainment will be hosting "Same Sex Marriage: A Civil Debate" on October 20th, 2006 at 8pm in the SUB Ballroom.  This event will feature two speakers: Glenn Stanton and John Corvino who are two opposing voices on this issue.  They plan on bring clarity and civility to this otherwise divisive topic.

         For more information about these speakers visit their website: http://www.kirklandproductions.com/ARTISTS/Same_Sex_Marriage_Debate-bio.html

They are available for purchase at the UI SUB Info desk and there is a limit of four tickets per person.

        Based on available space, we will be providing the opportunity for student organizations to host an informational table outside of the SUB on the evening of the event.  If there are more than ten groups interested in hosting a table, we will choose ten groups randomly from a lottery.  If you are interested in having an informational table at this event, please email me at katien at sub.uidaho.edu with (1) name, (2) title of organization, and (3) contact information if chosen to host a table.  There will be no costs associated with hosting a table at this event.
