/1. I define marriage as the deep, lifelong, committal love between a man and a woman./
50 years ago, many people saw marriage as the deep, lifelong, committal love between either a black man and a black woman or a white man and a white woman. Those were the only two options. Interracial marriage was not accepted. Marriage was redefined then. Why can't it be redefined again, to become even more inclusive?
/2. I've looked up the definition in the dictionary for marriage and have seen clearly what I stated above about a man and woman. I believe this to be the case just as much as it's impossible for a Christian to have a bar mitzvah, it's a Jewish initiation./
But Christians can still attend bar mitzvahs and it wouldn't be illegal if they actually did have one. Besides, marriage is not a strictly religious institution. Most people agitating for gay marriage are looking for the civil benefits granted by the government, not the church. As long as the government and society recognize that they are married, most homosexuals couldn't care less about what churches think about them.
/3. My personal experience with homosexuals has been bad. I was part of a group of them that were very promiscuous and they teased for being a goody two shoes to the point where I ran away either to end my life or finally have sex,(I was slow to develop physically and by that time I had no self esteem.)/
Guess what? I had that experience, too, only it was from *other heterosexuals.* It was other girls who teased me about not having a boyfriend yet, it was other girls who bragged about having boyfriends and whatnot. I'm sure that heterosexual guys do the same thing.
/(I was slow to develop physically and by that time I had no self esteem.) I've been in treatment for the last two years/
Great, so blame a whole group for your treatment by a few, just to make yourself feel better. Yeah, that works. *sarcasm*
/When I think of homosexuals I think of promiscuity./
Really, because when I hear the term promiscuity, a few famous names come to mind: Charlie Sheen, Gene Simmons, Paris Hilton, Hugh Hefner, Britney Spears, Jack Nicholson, George Clooney, and other famous playboy and playgirl celebrities who are all STRAIGHT.
/4.Yes, it has to do with my beliefs, but that is not all of it. I'm not using God's commands as evidence, I'm debating my belief. An argument is an argument no matter what background the person comes from./
You're basing your beliefs on just one bad experience. That's not smart, that's immature. Grow up.
