Arguments Against Same Sex Marriage

The Supreme Court legalized Same Sex Marriage on June 26, 2015. Same Sex Marriage is all the homosexual people in United States now can legally marry. Homosexual people has hard time with their family, people who didn't come out not dare to tell their family, so they will find some who is hetersexual and marry without telling the truth. Once hetersexual person find out about it or homosexual person sick to live with it , they will be divorce. The article “ 10 reasons why Gay Marriage should be legalized” the article stated “More than 50% of married couples in America get divorced. Allowing gays the opportunity to get married will increase marriage rates because less couples will get divorced due to incompatibility or infertility.” We can see from the evidence that half of people in America get divorced. Once they passed the Same Sex Marriage Law, the situation will become better also the percentage of getting divorced would be decrese. American people rejoice with wild excitement not only because this, it also prove that human has improved. To homesexual people is accomplishment of equal rights. The article “ 10 reasons why Gay Marriage should be legalized” the article stated “In the 50's, interracial marriage was illegal. But now, modern society understands this to be an unjust law that denied equal rights to couples who loved each other.” Mind

In the past few decades, the question of allowing for same-sex marriage is a recurring topic of controversy. In the houses of same-sex couples, the need for equal rights is of great importance. Currently, many states ban the marriage of same-sex couples and do not view a marriage between same-sex couples as an official marriage. These states quote the Constitutional definition of marriage as a union between a man and a woman. Therefore, with this definition, the marriage of a man and a man or a woman and a woman is unconstitutional. As of the issue date of this article, the Supreme Court had not made a national decision on same-sex marriage and the benefits entitled to that marriage. This CQ Researcher journal focuses on the topic of

The United States is currently embroiled in a battle over issues regarding civil rights of its citizens and what rights are constituted by that term. In the past, civil rights issues have been fought over women's rights and those of African Americans among others all in the name of seeking equality. Perhaps the most vocal group discussing civil rights in the United States at present are gay marriage activists who are fighting for same-sex couples to be able to marry. These individuals feel that marriage is a civil right and that there is no legal reason why people of the same gender cannot be legally married in the United States, a perspective which is shared by many people who are themselves not homosexual. Homosexuality and what rights should be afforded to same-sex couples have been in the forefront of politics for the last few years and rightly so. Before this period, gay people had to fight to get recognized and for their relationships to even be legal. For most of American history, homosexuals have had to hide their sexual orientation or fear ostracism and marginalization by the moral and social majority. This oppression is still seen in the legislation of the United States. Those who do not agree almost always use their religious beliefs as a reason for denying homosexuals this right despite the fact that the United States Constitution bans legislation being based upon religious perspectives. There simply is no reasonable argument against same-sex

John and Massey have been a couple since college. As growing up into being a couple things got serious between them they was starting to fall for each other more to a higher expectation stage. John and Massey started going out on dates every weekend, buying each other things and started living together having their own space to become close as lovers and not friends. As days arriving by John decided to propose to Massey even though he felt weird about it because they was gay. John and Massey have been thinking about getting married but as living in America today they realize some can be against gay marriage. John and Massey is kinda down about this situation because they fell they should become committed to each other more. People in America

From the philosophical points of Kantianism, Utilitarianism, and Virtue Ethics on same-sex marriage, there are good reasons which are relevant to good will, duty, the principle of utility, and eudaimonia to support same-sex marriage. Although the Supreme Court has ruled that the Constitution places the right to same-sex marriage, people who stick to conservative position on same-sex relationships believe that a same-sex relationship violates moral and religious beliefs. Especially, religious objectors on same-sex marriage are a highly controversial topic because people who believe on religious grounds that define a marriage as a legal union between one man and one woman to pursue traditional family values. However, everything must change. The powerful social movements have accelerated the same-sex marriage issue in regard to the fundamental rights and the social justice. The social change involves inevitable consequences of the issue; so, the Supreme Court’s decision on same-sex marriage has a validation. Therefore, Homosexual people should be entitled to federal marriage rights and

Though there are differences in the views of different faiths, conservative Protestants, the Catholic Church, Mormons, traditional Jews, and Muslims share two fundamental antigay arguments. The first is that homosexuality is wrong because it involves sex that doesn 't create life. In the case of Judaism, a key Bible passage is the story of Onan (Links to an external site.), who sleeps with his dead brother 's wife but, to avoid giving his brother offspring, doesn 't ejaculate inside her. Instead, he "spilt the seed on the ground." God slew him, which some might view as a sign of disapproval (Links to an external site.).The Catholic catechism decries (Links to an external site.) homosexual acts because "they close the sexual act to the gift of life." Early American antisodomy laws discouraged all forms of non-procreative sex (including, incidentally, heterosexual oral and anal sex). Islam shares a similar view. One Islamic hadith explains that Allah "will not look at the man who commits sodomy with a man or a woman." But if non-procreative sex is the issue, society started down the slippery slope not with the recent Supreme Court ruling but with production of the pill—or, really, even earlier, when birth control became common. We 've been into the non-procreative sex thing for some time now. Even most religious conservatives don 't have the heart to go after this. If sex without the possibility of creating life is wrong, then religious

Gay marriage is something that has been debated about for a long time and it still is. It’s a topic that has been talked about everywhere. In the article Gay Marriage by authors, Andrew, it talks about how gay marriage is a civil right that every American has. “I cannot for the life of me see what terrible damage same-sex marriage would actually do to it.” (Andrew), same-sex marriage would not be causing harm to others. The main thesis is that same-sex marriage is not going to cause harm and the reasons David has to be against it are not reasonable. Same-sex marriage should not accelerate divorce rate and “Denmark has actually seen lower divorce rates among same-sex couples than among heterosexual ones.” (Andrew). There’s is no reason for same-sex

David Masci conducts interviews on the topic of same-sex marriage and presents them in the transcripts titled “An Argument against Same-Sex Marriage: An Interview with Rick Santorum” and “An Argument for Same-Sex Marriage: An Interview with Jonathan Rauch”. Masci interviews two people with completely different stances regarding same-sex marriage. He interviews Rick Santorum, an ex-senator and devout Christian, who is against same-sex marriage then Jonathan Rauch, a gay rights activist, who is for same-sex marriage. Santorum and Rauch both spend a great amount of time speaking about the institution of marriage and although they make some compelling arguments, I feel that neither provide an argument that I can fully agree with.

Summary. It is reasonable to start investigating the problem with its history to make the research more valid and continue with investigating different aspects of the studied issue. Eskridge (1993) proves that the phenomenon of same-sex marriages is not the new thing, which appeared in the 20th century. It was even approved by different religions. But the main idea of the author is that the first step in legalizing the same-sex marriages should be done by the state. Legalization of non-traditional families with their right to rear children as the decent members of the society is of great importance for the society. It should perceive the freedom of all its members as the inevitable thing. It is important that the

As the society changing, the history of marriage also changes. Marriage is legally recognized union of two people as partners in a personal relationship, but do those two partners always have to be a man and a woman? Most people believe that homosexuals should be granted equal rights as heterosexual couples. Being as an important social issue, same-sex marriage has become a hot topic of public debates in the recent years. For over the past decade, public support for the same-sex marriage has quickly risen. The United States is one of over twenty countries that allow gay and lesbian couples to wed. I believe that same-sex marriage should be legalized in all countries for several reasons, such as being an issue of equal rights, separation of church and state, no negative effect on the heterosexual communities, increasing in child adoption, and decreasing divorce and suicide rates.

The issue of same sex marriage and gender identity has been the talk of the nation for quite some time. This topic has become a focal point for many debates worldwide. As country we are making the attempt to consider rights and protections that should be rendered to the people whose efforts have taken into effect such as the same sex marriage Supreme Court case that are being brought to the forefront this year.

In today's world, the problem of same sex marriage is increasing day by day. Although there are certain laws about the homosexuals in the western society but still many people do not see it with dignity because of their own ethical perceptions. As far as their legal marriage is concerned, it is very not a civilized action under any circumstances. Anything against natural phenomenon is hazardous physically and mentally. Giving them lawful support can be a hazard for the upcoming generations and a hindrance in conceiving babies to continue a family chain. The society and government should not allow homosexuals' marriage as it is an unnatural process and ethically unsound causing damage to the family life.

One of the most controversial topics in the world to date is that of same sex marriage. It is no surprise to anyone that eventually society would evolve to accept this social change phenomenon. The United States can be seen as being amongst the top two most powerful countries in the world, but if we were to look solely at a countries sphere of influence, there is no doubt USA would come out on top every time. Due to this we can assume that a major decision such as that of legalizing same-sex marriage will have a huge impact on a global level. Besides looking at this topic from an international perspective, this essay will mainly focus on the internal social turmoil that legalization of same sex marriage has had on the political, religious and social aspects due to the previous conservative atmosphere which clouded American judgment in the past. Same-sex marriage has now been legitimized in the USA, but there are still groups that are against it and continue to deny the rights of the gay community (Baunach, 2011).

As we know, same-sex marriage has been a prominent issue that has so many arguments not just in the United States, but around the world over many years now. There is absolutely nothing more controversial than same-sex marriage in gay rights topic. Everyone has different opinions about same-sex marriage whether it should be legal or not. We now have to consider two aspects that are moral and religious. These two form a fundamental belief that same-sex couples and opposite-sex couples are different. Based on the definition of marriage, the view of religion, bad effects to children, and the lifestyle that should not be encouraged; therefore, the government should not legalize the same-sex marriage.
