If certain states have laws that say they cannot marry the one person they want, then that is not something that should be allowed. The people who are told they can not marry the one they want to spend the rest of thier life with are the ones who want to see the change that desperately needs to happen. Same-sex marriage has become such an important issue in today's society. It is the path to many couple’s happiness. With the recent change in office, the road for same-sex marriage could be terribly damaged. But if others continue to try and equalize everyone's happiness then same-sex marriage will continue along a positive road. People will be able to marry whoever they wish in years to come but that change is not clear due to the change in office. The inability to accept what is different often sets back many. It’s an issue or topic people tend to shy away from. Being different is not a bad thing and everyone needs to realize that. Difference is something that needs to be accepted or the world will never be able to survive. The decisions and opinions of others affect others lives and overall well

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.

Same sex marriages have both pros and cons. With this issue, it seems society is more concerned about the physical and moral issues behind it. Same sex partners are trying to seek the same benefits as heterosexual couples. By keeping the DOMA in effect in all states, same sex partners will be

Gay marriage has been an issue for a very long time and since some states are legalizing it, many worry that it would soon be added as an amendment. The topic of gay marriage brings up religious, legal, and many other issues. In "What's wrong with Gay Marriage?" by Katha Pollitt, the author supports gay marriage and wants it legalized. She states that there is no problem with gay marriage and it's all a matter of separating the church and state. But in “Gay ‘Marriage’: Societal Suicide,” by Charles Colson, the author opposes the idea of gay marriage and states that it will destroy society. Marriage is intended to unite a man and a woman together to bring children into the world, but due to the same-sex marriage,

This summer, the Supreme Court states that gay and lesbian Americans have the right to get married. This is certainly an important step in the new Civil Rights movement for LGBT equality, and has led to a more perfect United States. However, LGBT people are still not completely free from discrimination and abuse, there is much more society can, and should do, in order to advance LGBT equality.

In the past few years all 50 states have legalized same sex marriage. The problem is same sex marriage is still not widely accepted in this American society. When people are getting arrested because they refuse to do their job and give out gay marriage licences that means there is a problem with the way that same sex couples are being treated. Gay marriage is a major hot button issue in America right now. To allow marriage or to not allow marriage has evoked a large argument that has caused many riots and problems. Gay marriage is the right for two people of the same gender to marry. But what most people do not think about is the benefits of marriage to this community of people. Society should work harder on accepting same sex marriage because it is not just about being happy (but that is a benefit), but it is a matter of decisions over life or death, money, and the life of children.

Gay marriage has been a recent controversy for many reasons. Many people (religious conservatives) believe that same-sex marriage is immoral, sinful, and threatens the traditional structure of a family. But gay and lesbian supporters feel marriage is a right that everyone should have, backed by the Due Process and Equal Protection of the Fourteenth Amendment. It has been proven that the outlook on gay marriage has changed drastically based simply on the fact that younger people had supported it and it just took time to gain enough approval from enough of the country to legalize it. Since most of 18-29 year-olds of 2006 supported same-sex marriage, “two-thirds of Americans think that same-sex marriage will eventually be legal in the United

Historically when you looked up the definition of marriage in the dictionary, it defined marriage as a union between a man and a woman. According to cbn.com, Merriam-Webster changed its definition of marriage in 2003. The revised version now defines marriage as the state of being married as spouses in a consensual and contractual relationship recognized by law. Currently, in 2017 more sources have also made revisions to redefine marriage. They are now defining marriage as being between two people instead of being between just a man and a woman. For decades, same-sex couples have been deprived of the same rights that opposite couples have always had. The case of Obergefell v Hodges made a huge impact in the U.S. and have changed the

This has caused tremendous tremors around the entire United States. It 's has developed civil rights issues, creating unique cases that have even made it to the Supreme Court. Cases such United States vs. Windsor and Hollingsworth vs. Perry. In the case of Hollingsworth v Perry the issue was that in May 2009, a California District Court ruled that Proposition 8 violated the Equal Protection and Due Process Clauses of the Fourteenth Amendment and temporarily prohibited its enforcement, and the Ninth Circuit agreed, affirming the District Court’s ruling. (Santoro, law. Cornell) The United States Supreme Court will now consider whether a state can define marriage solely as the union of a man and a woman, in addition to considering whether the proponents of Proposition 8 have standing to bring suit in federal court. (Santoro, law. Cornell) The Court’s ruling will implicate the rights of gay men and lesbians, the role of the government in structuring family and society, and the relationship between the institution of marriage and religion and morality. (Santoro, law. Cornell) These style of cases show how vastly apart the United States are in these manners. The main reasoning for how we perceive these specific issues is based

Gay marriage is one of the most controversial topics being discussed in America today. Today in America, Christians feel like that because the bible states that homosexuality is a sin and then it should be illegal. A few states have taken the first step and started to accept the marriage of same sex marriage. I Believe that the government has no right to tell people if they can or cannot get married. Their choices doesn’t have any thing to with security or credibility of the nation , and it does nothing to affect

There is a lot of controversy about gay marriage and whether or not it should be legalized in certain states that haven 't yet legalized it. My opinion on this topic is that it should not be legalized for various reasons. My reasons on this have nothing to do with religion because religion shouldn’t have anything to do with their opinion; religion is a biased opinion because of its authenticity. Another thing that shouldn’t be considered is their opinion that doesn’t have a reasoning behind it like when people say that they don’t like to see same-sex people doing couple things out in the open. I will talk about children with same-sex parents needing a father and mother figure, ‘slippery slope’ chain reaction, and reproduction problems. I will also be talking about citizens who do not approve of their tax money going towards gay marriage.

Gay marriage has been a controversial topics for years, especially during the 2004 presidential debate. Political figures, churches, and citizens seem to have their own views on this subject. People should be able to marry whomever they want and they shouldn't have the fear to be judged and have the same rights of everybody else becasue they are people just like us. Gay marriage has affected the country in many ways. It was legalized just two years ago by the Supreme Court ruling it (www.theatlantic.com). I chose this topic because people should do what they want and marry who they want so they have the same rights as everybody else. There was 14 states that did not allow gay marriage before it was legalized but when the supreme court

Most people agree and disagree about legalizing gay marriages. To be honest, is it really a big issue? If gay marriages become legal, it won’t end the world. Social Science Quarterly have even found that “Laws permitting same-sex marriage have no effect on marriage, divorce and abortion rates”.(Langbein) This example shows that gay

This year, the Supreme Court will now have decide once again how to define marriage in the 21st century. This issue is not new to the United States Supreme Court, as the forty-eight years ago they unanimously ruled that the Virginia 's anti-miscegenation laws were unconstitutional. Therefore the 1883 Pace v. Alabama case was overturned [Ryan, Joe]. This allowed Mildred Delores Loving and Richard Perry Loving, the plaintiffs in the landmark United States Supreme Court case Loving v. Virginia, to legally live as an interracial couple in the state of Virginia. The case of Loving v. Virginia was not only a major turning point of the Civil Rights Movement, but an imperative step toward equitable treatment for all Americans. The Supreme Court not
