I wouldn't ever say that being gay is immoral. I never felt that I'm perfect enough to decide what's wrong and what's right. There may be a lot of homosexuals who are much better people than I do and I don't think their sexual preferences make them worse. My opinion about people is based by their works, character; not the fact who they love. Love is not a sin. Staying on topic, I agree that gays have a right to get married like straight couples. They are the same people, connected by the same feelings and in my opinion there's no reason why they should be treated differently. If they want it, why not? There won't be anyone hurt because of that and the world won't end.
Love is not a sin, but we love sin. Speaking as a Christian(I know, you're all shocked) sin taints everything, even the highest of our virtues. Love is not immune to this. I can't think of single person who doesn't love something or someone they probably shouldn't.
That's all well and good in a secular state, but I hardly think it can be applied to the religious middle east (one example) where being homosexual is punishable by death
That doesn't stop Afghanis at all. I had hoped that I'd make it through life without accidentally stumbling into the middle of a guy-on-guy-on-goat party, but it seemed to be something I just couldn't avoid in Afghanistan.
Being gay was completely oked by the ayatollah khomeini's little green book. As long as you wash yourself in a ritual manner.
I do not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it. -Voltaire I was not chosen to serve one party, but to serve one nation.-George W. Bush

I am totally okay with same-sex marriage. I actually have quite a few Homosexual friends though ^^ But seriously, I am okay with any type of marriage as long as it is between two consenting adults. (Age 18 or older) As long as the people involved are happy that's all that should matter.

Would you be okay if there was a relationship of more than 2 people?
Same-sex marriage shouldn't be an issue by now. Due to the nature of democracy it should be allowed with all marriage-benefits and the right to adopt too... Anything else would be undemocratic. Following the principles of: "Do what you want as long as you don't hurt anybody else" you can see that gay love is a matter regarding them, as they don't hurt anybody with their love... I just think that people are very ignorant towards gays.
