Gay Marriage : The Aspects Of Same-Sex Marriage

Gay marriage is one of the most controversial issues in this modern world. In my opinion I do not consider “gay marriage” marriage, because marriage has always been a covenant between a man and a woman by its nature. When two men or two women “marry” it denies the reputation of keeping the human race and the raising of children. Gay marriage also violates the natural law, and we should follow “avoid evil and do good”, the natural law is for every human being in the world and we should follow it by marrying the opposite sex. I believe that Gay marriage is one of the most unfavorable law that could of happen. I am against this law because not only it breaks the natural law but it also brings more diseases to homosexual people and instead

Thomas Jefferson wrote about “unalienable rights” in The Declaration of Independence. What he meant was there are rights that are given to us as human beings and cannot be taken away by the government. “Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness” are among those rights that are being suppressed against same sex couples. Their right to pursue happiness with their significant other is taken from them by the state. Psychologically and medically married couples are healthier in general because they have someone to share their good days and bad days with as well as someone to take care of when they are sick. However some marriages are not so healthy where one of the partners is abusive whether emotionally or physically and it usually occurs in heterosexual relationships. Orphaned children and children in the foster system also benefit from the union of gay couples because since they can’t have their own children they often look to adoption when starting their own families. Because homosexuals are denied the right of marriage to their loved ones they take marriage more seriously than most heterosexuals who take their right for granted. While the Constitution never specifically stated a need for “separation of the church and the state” the idea is implied because America is a diverse nation and “freedom of religion” definitely is in the constitution. “Freedom of religion”

Gay marriage in itself is not bad at all, but marriage is the binding of man and woman, not of either one of them. Gay marriage is not truly marriage and if the gay people would like to have a union, they should not call it marriage. Many a person would say gay marriage is not wrong because it hurts no one. This essay will prove to you that it is, in fact, wrong. It actually can conflict with religious rights and people’s rights to an opinion. Although it is the United States of America and everyone deserves to be equal, gay marriage is still wrong, because if equal rights takes away another’s rights, it is not correct.

The morality of same-sex marriage is a major controversial issue in the United States today. While Liberals believe that marriage should be the union of two people who love each other and that it should be legal for gay and lesbian individuals in order to ensure equal rights for all citizens, Conservatives believe that marriage is the union of one woman and one man only and that requiring citizens to sanction same-sex relationships violates moral and religious beliefs. Taking opposing viewpoints of this issue are both philosophers David Boonin and Jeff Jordan who discuss the public dilemma of same-sex marriage within their articles.

The proposed legalization of same-sex marriage is one of the most significant issues in contemporary American family law. As a heavily campaigned development currently discussed in law assessment; these extremely confrontational and debatable political questions are facing present day American courts. If same-sex marriage is legalized, its affect on the parents, children, same sex couples, families, and the social and political world will be astronomical. The arguments surrounding the issue though confrontational nonetheless are easily seen from a wide array of perspectives. One of the perspectives states that marriage is a promise to a spouse to stay loyal and faithful in all

Human beings are born without any identity or cultural beliefs. Instead, in a process called socialization, their parents, siblings, teachers, and any other person they come in contact with as they grow up transform them into socially adept beings. People identify their selves by studying and adjusting to how others respond to them after which they can effectively interact with others. The response people receive from their surroundings can determine their overall performance. An individual can then become a functional member of their society based on the outcome of those associations. However, when they receive a negative response from those they interact with, people can become ill-adjusted, an issue which in turn adversely affects their productivity. Social problem refers to the social phenomenon of unbalanced social relations, affecting the common life of members of the society, undermining normal social activities and hindering the coordinated development of the society. It is not only an objective existence, but also a product of people's subjective construction. Also, it is a situation that needs to be solved due to values, norms and conflicts of interest and the social problem reflect the gap between a social reality and social expectation.

In the United States, there is a communal controversy regarding the right of same-sex marriage. I decided to explore the views of two different authors who contrast each other. British Author, Andrew Sullivan writes the essay, “For Gay Marriage” about equal rights on marriages for same-sex couples. William J. Bennett composes the essay, “Against Gay Marriage” giving his views on why couples of the same sex should not be allowed to engage in marital relations. Sullivan supports the idea of gay marriages while Bennett opposes the idea. Referring to the article in the “Moral Issues” book…. Page…give examples from there. Every human being has emotional needs and different interests, giving rise to diverse and conflicting opinions on gay marriage dealing with social issues, domestic partnership and religious viewpoints.

When a person thinks about marriage, they usually think of a man and a woman. With more and more people getting married, it is all opening the door to gay marriage. No matter whom the person is, or what sex they chose to marry they should be treated the same. If a man and man want to unite in marriage and announce their love to each other, they should be able to and it should be accept in our society. If a female and another female are inmate it is considered arousing however, if those same woman want to make a commitment to each other it is then deemed unacceptable. Why should society be able to dictate who gets to marry whom, and how they get to live their lives?

The United Stated of America consists of many different types of people, all who take pride in their freedom. Recently, we had seen the reality of our “freedom,” which some may not really have considered America the land of the free, homosexuals especially. Just like the “normal” citizen in America, homosexuals like the idea of the American dream as well. And most Americans believe in, or enjoy the idea of marriage. People get married all across the country; people of all races, religion, ethnicity, and as of June 26th, 2015, people of the same sex may also enjoy that privilege to be happy as well. Anyone who believes in love shall be able to marry as they please, regardless of their preferences.

    For many parents, the marriage of their child is a very happy and proud time. Most parents expect their children to get married and have children. But what if their child is gay or lesbian? Their child may have met the perfect person to spend their life with, but their child cannot get legally married. Same-sex couples can hold wedding ceremonies, but the law does not recognize these unions. Many heterosexuals take for granted the benefits that are extended to their spouse by way of legal marriage. These benefits do not extend to homosexual couples, because there is not a law that recognizes same-sex marriage. Gay marriage is not legal because of state and federal laws, as well as the traditional

Imagine having a deep affection for someone, going to the ends of the world for them , and giving up everything to be with them but having all that taken away because of gender. Denying people basic human rights is inhuman. Are gay people not human? Not being able to marry the person you love based on something so simple as gender is ludicrous. As of 2017, 32% of Americans believe gay marriage is immoral and unnatural and oppose it, but 62% of Americans favor it (Mitchell). Gay marriage helps increase adoption rates, allows people to- love who they want with no limits, and lessens discrimination within human rights.

Advice to a U.S. State Senator on whether natural law might determine whether passing a statute prohibiting same-sex marriage is an appropriate legislative act?

Recognized as the Marriage Protection Amendment, Proposition 102 was placed on the ballot and passed by Arizona voters in 2008, amending the state’s Constitution which defined the traditional sense of marriage between a man and a woman. However, on October 17, 2014, a federal judge disagreed with voters and overruled Prop 102, claiming that the ban on same-sex marriage was unconstitutional. Not long after the decision Attorney General Tom Horne stated that there would be no appeal and same-sex marriages would be legally honored in Arizona.

Especially over the latter of the 20th century until today, there has been increased debate about the issue of same-sex marriage. For many, it is one of the fundamental human rights to love and marry whomever one chooses. Others feel that this right should be ruled by certain moral codes and restrictions in order to maintain the basic moral fabric of Western society. Today, many critics who advocate for the legalization of same-sex marriage across the United States do so on the grounds of the fact that it will create a more equal and fair society. Same-sex marriage, or indeed simply the legal recognition that same-sex couples who are loyal to each other on certain grounds, including love and children, according to these advocates, will hold advantages for a large sector of society, while not detracting or disadvantage any other sectors of society.

There are a variety of important public issues being discussed publicly today, same sex marriage seems to be one of the most trending of them all. Part of this is due largely to fact that a vast majority of minorities in the United States are dealing with it today. This issue, however, sheds light on a few areas, primarily ethically, family values, morals, religious views and beliefs. What we need to consider is what same sex marriage consists of, the challenges and living as such, and finally the effects it has brought upon the government and lawmakers. There is obviously a rising conflict regarding this lifestyle, and if we do not pursue in fighting for the right, this country will continue to fall.
