Quote by: Dirty Name Sadly, you have never pointed out the basis of my flawed argument. |
What's laughable is that you refuse to acknowledge said refutation.

Quote by: Dirty Name I don't recall any of your posts that have even tried to explain to me why same-sex couples should be considered literally equal to opposite sex couples due to the obvious potential of the latter to experience pregnancy and childbirth - within the relationship. |
How convenient for you. Let me summarize:
[1] This country's founding documents reflect no need to engage in your wholly ridiculous need to prove potential or equality.
[2] Every act of law that attempts to codify your silly philosophy runs completely counter to the concepts of personal liberty and equality this country was founded on. Such laws impose restrictions without compelling interest.
[3] The fact that such laws exist doesn't make them any less wrongheaded and worthy of elimination. The fact that you claim that marriage benefits are effective is entirely laughable in view of a 50% divorce rate and the number of kids receiving welfare.

Quote by: Dirty Name Regardless of same-sex couples ability to acquire a child, such a thing does not happen within their relationship. |
Again, you attempt to hijack the debate by magically claiming government interest in an area where none exists.
I won't argue against existing tax credits that encourage child support, but only to parents who've produced children. Not before. Your assertion that opposite sex married couples deserve benefits based on the
potential for giving birth is a ridiculous waste of taxpayer money bordering on criminal and should cease immediately.

Quote by: Dirty Name You can claim it's all irrelevant if you wish, but we have a disconnect here and I'm asking you to make an effort instead of flippantly claiming my position is flawed. |
There. It's done. Better bookmark it. I won't repeat it again.
And furthermore, if you unprovokedly disparage another poster's remarks with your smarmy, immature chest thumping, I'll call you on it. Expect more flippancy. It's what you deserve.
Have a nice day. :)
