  1. Homosexuality is a psychological disorder, and giving mentally unstable people the same personal freedoms as everyone else obviously leads to instability.
  2. The comment you replied to never stated anything about gay couples being more likely to divorce.
  3. Marriage with a foundation of psychological disorder is only an illusion of that mental condition. The value of marriage is cheapened when it is taken out of its purpose to create a stable societal unit of family and reinterpreted as "lifelong romantical union," which blurs the line between marriage and general romantic love.

Remember, the dunning kruger effect hits hardest on people like you, who believe because they have an online badge they know more than actual medical experts:

Here is a list of groups you believe you know more than--a list of groups that say homosexuality is not a disorder:

American Psychiatric Association

American Psychological Association

World Health Organization

American Medical Association

American Academy of Pediatrics

National Association of Social Workers

Royal College of Psychiatrists

American Counseling Association

Pan American Health Organization

United Nations

Informed Gay Marriage

  1. When in the modern day has homosexuality been considered a disorder in any way?
  2. Gay couples are more likely to divorce based on what evidence?
  3. This is assuming that there are instances where couples where one or both have a mental illness is invalid which is unnecessarily ignoring human emotions, which is one of, if not the, most important part of a marriage. And how would you define the line between marriage and "general romantic love"? Since you claim that calling same-sex marriage "blurring the lines" between the two, you would have a clear definition of the line?

If we expand the right to marry to f'aggots, then what about brothers? Because how is 2 brothers marrying any different from 2 unrelated men marrying? Neither can make children without artificial means. Homosexuality isn't a disorder; people can make bad choices without having an actual mental disorder. But bad choices deserve the appropriate consequences. If the people of a state oppose homosexuality, then the government should not be forced to legalize their right to marry as it would force the government to not serve the best interests if its people.

Elizabeth Warren Walks Back Murder Comments

Congressional Democrats broadly denounced the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson Friday morning, after Republicans started accusing Sen. Elizabeth Warren of excusing violence.“No one's condoning this,” said Rep. Brad Schneider (D-Ill.). “Violence never is the right answer for anything. And it was a horrible murder, a tragic loss for his family.” Warren this week condemned the shooting, but added that people “can be pushed only so far.”"We'll say it over and over," Warren said on MSNBC’S “The ReidOut.” " Violence is never the answer. This guy [Luigi Mangione] gets a trial who's allegedly killed the CEO of UnitedHealth, but you can only push people so far, and then they start to take matters into their own hands."In a statement to POLITICO, Warren said, “Violence is never the answer. Period. I should have been much clearer that there is never a justification for murder.” Top Republicans denounced Warren's comments and the walked-back rhetoric, with House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) calling it “inappropriate and dangerous.”Some House Democrats asked about the incident on Thursday pivoted the conversation to discuss policy options on health care or gun safety.“I don't really know that this is really a space that Congress normally weighs in on,” said Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas). “But at the end of the day, I think it’s an opportunity, because now people are talking about health care and to talk about the fact that this industry has honestly not been as helpful as it could be.”“Violence is never the answer,” said Rep. Troy Carter (D-La.). “We know that there are people suffering, there’s great challenges in healthcare. There's great challenges, and people have, in fact, been wronged, but a process of governance is the way to address that, not violence.”And Rep. Ted Lieu (D-Calif.) who denounced the murder, said the killer should be prosecuted and that “I do know that allegedly a ghost gun was used, and we should also ban ghost guns. There's no reason for them beyond the streets.”
