[Fundies are responding to the news that same-sex partners of military members could get benefits from the military.]
The fact our own military now supports this atrocity as if it's "no big deal" is proof that Satan has made significant inroads into a once strong and apologetically masculine American institution. What's next, I wonder .... a remake of "The Longest Day" where a guy marries his buddy before the invasion of Normandy?

Four words, Barbie: Sacred Band of Thebes .
Damn it, DaRatBastid beat me to it...
There are males (and females, for that matter) who have lived in marriage-like relationships for fifty years or more. The only new thing is that they are finally getting the same rights as straight people take for granted.
I'd say it's much more atrocious to kill a lot of human beings, than accepting that two men or women love each other and want to spend their lives together. Obviously, I'm more Christ-like than you are, dearie.
So, Satan is the new god of love. Good to know.
And you DO realize that, 100 years ago, interracial marriage was something no one ever imagined, right?
Because nobody could have imagined it 50 or 60 years ago shows what progress we've made. 50 or 60 years ago gay people were still gay, only they were being shamed into staying in the closet.
And how dare Satan infiltrate our military full of good Christian men who righteously kill people for God?

...no, just a remake of the abortion that was "U-571 " using historical fact * as the screenplay will do, thanks: in which the first Enigma to be captured was by the British Royal Navy. Also a more advanced Enigma was captured by the Canadian Navy.
And the only Enigma to be captured by the US Navy was not only a virtually obsolete one, but it's capture almost screwed up the plans for Operation Overlord: D-Day.
In Soviet Omaha Beach, God fucks you up the arse.
Will a film in which the US fucks up be 'no big deal', Ruptured Retards...?

*- Stick to Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Hollywood. It's what you're best at.

- It would probably make a mint, partially due to the fact that they would not have to advertise it. The protests and lamentations of the Fundamentalists would give it all the publicity it needed. Remember RR, its capitalism at work, and only godless lib-tards would stand in the way of capitalism!

So the Sacred Band of Thebes were basically a bunch of wiry, flamboyant, Austin Scarlett clones. Gotcha....
I love how these dorks equate gayness with not being manly....despite said Sacred Band, "Bears", Leathermen, Rob Halford....
Two guys on foot and no body armor, charging down the ramp off a landing craft into chest high water, in the face of small arms fire, artillery and mines, all to kick the crap out of Nazis? Guys like that can marry any goddamn person they like, and you can kiss my ass for saying otherwise!
Why is it absurd? If somebody is willing to wear the uniform of our country, and to bear the sacrifices and privations that come with that, why the hell would you deny their partner the same benefits a straight serviceman would receive?
Atrocity? Are you even listening to yourself?
Your religion has clearly clouded your judgement and warped your moral compass.
"Satan has made significant inroads into a once strong and apologetically (sic) masculine American institution."
And now that Satan has finished making inroads, he's going to make a nice quiche Lorraine. Stay tuned for the recipe!

I wish to complain in the strongest possible terms about the song you have just broadcast about the lumberjack who wears women's clothes. Many of my best friends are lumberjacks, and only a few of them are transvestites.
Yours faithfully,

@breakerslion:
You sir, have my gratitude.
But now I have this longing for Monty Python episodes and I am to lazy to get my DVDs.
On to the YouTubes!
two males becoming co-husbands in a "marriage" is something no one even remotely imagined just 50 or 60 years ago.
You couldn't even be openly gay back then, period. You could have lost your job or even been charged with a crime because of anti-sodomy laws. But yes I know, "back then" is what you want America to become again.
The fact our own military now supports this atrocity as if it's "no big deal"
It's not a big deal, the only people who have a problem with it is you and your ilk. Now the Holocaust was an atrocity, two gay guys getting married ... not so much.
Anyone?
is proof that Satan has made significant inroads into a once strong and apologetically masculine American institution.
Do you seriously believe that there were no gays in the military until recently? And as for Satan, prove he exists.

I would love it if such a movie came out just to watch all the fundies heads explode.
The idea of two cute soldier-boys gettin' it on sounds hot. Heck, there's gay porn catering to that idea.
The idea that Theban sex is unmanly is silly! When think about it, there's nothing more MANLY than Theban sex! Guy on guy...total sausage-fest...not a lady-soul around...Testosterone hormones only....
So, gimmie a break, fundies! There's much more important things to obsess over than fantasy novels, wardrobe malfunctions, women & girls
"Strain at a gnat & swallow a camel", that's what Jesus said of you.
Y'know, not for nothing was Alexander known as 'The Great ' for nothing.
And in more ways than one . Not bad for someone who once 'wept when he saw the breadth of his domain; for there were no more worlds to conquer. '

Not even your (oh so straight ) 'God' knew about (what would ultimately be known as) Pakistan, or else he would have 'inspired' his 'Word's authors to have mentioned it, seeing as he is supposed to be 'omnipresent ' and 'omniscient '.
If a gay man could achieve this, then the Death of DOMA, to say nothing of 'DADT' now doing a superb impression of a Norwegian Blue ([/Monty Python]) - via no less than the support of straight people too - should tell you something, Ruptured Retards: Your ways have been found wanting. And we the people no longer want it.

@The Crimson Ghost
Well, there is that, at least. John By Jove-i went down (*sings *) '...in a blaze of glory!' X3
My Great-Uncle served on the Somme and at Passchendaele in 1916-1918... and then had a 60+ year "friendship" (as he termed it) with another ex-Tommy. I met them when I was very young, just before they both died back in the early 1980s. Lovely old gent, always had sweets for his nieces and nephews in the 1950s apparently. So... yeah, BarbT, gay men are just as capable of being conscripted into the army and being sent to France to be machine gunned in their hundreds of thousands whilst sat in a shit filled ditch as anyone else.
