Subject: top 10 reasons gays shouldn't marry (satire)
I thought this was cute so I'm sending it along lol this is a strictly satirical piece meaning it's against those who are against gay marriage by producing there points in an ironic standpoint i.e. it is for gay marriage typically I wouldn't even bother with this little disclaimer but I know how stupid some can be and I'm not in the mood to be flamed ^^
Top 10 Reasons Gay Marriage Should Be Illegal
12 Nov, 2006 General, -Funneh
Top Ten Reasons to Make Gay Marriage Illegal
01) Being gay is not natural. Real Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, and air conditioning.
02) Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall.
03) Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract.
04) Straight marriage has been around a long time and hasn’t changed at all like many of the principles on which this great country was founded; women are still property, blacks still can’t marry whites, and divorce is still illegal.
05) Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed; the sanctity of marriages like Britney Spears’ 55-hour just-for-fun marriage would be destroyed.
06) Straight marriages are valid because they produce children. Gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn’t be allowed to marry because our orphanages aren’t full yet, and the world needs more children.
07) Obviously gay parents will raise gay children, since straight parents only raise straight children.
08 ) Gay marriage is not supported by religion. In a theocracy like ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That’s why we have only one religion in America.
09) Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at home. That’s why we as a society expressly forbid single parents to raise children.
10) Gay marriage will change the foundation of society; we could never adapt to new social norms. Just like we haven’t adapted to cars, the service-sector economy, or longer life spans

Dear umi237,
I'm a christian and though I don't approve of homosexuality, neither do I joke about it in this way. Homosexuals are people and as such deserve respect.
Please do not send me this kind of stuff again.
Ira.
