The Legality Of Same Sex Marriage

The Problems of Municipal Administration written by Jane Addams described the problems of public administration in targeted social publics that affected the community, specifically she mentioned the inequalities and injustices of municipal administration. The author stars by pointing out the failure of municipal administration to address the issues emerging in society. The social changes brought by the increased of industrialization in the 18th century failed to address the necessities of society. Addams emphasized, “…failure in municipal administration, the so-called “shame of American cities,” may be largely due to the inadequacy of those eighteen-century ideals, with the breakdown of the machinery which they provided, and further, to the weakness inherent in the historic and doctrinaire method when it attempts to deal with growing and human institutions” (p. 51). The lack of adjustment between democracy and the study of the external conditions affecting the communities was a problems that governmental officials failed to take into consideration.

Today, alternative long-term relationships are growing in times in heterosexual and LGBTQ relationships. Cohabitation is defined by “Recent Changes in Family Structure” as quote: “an intimate relationship that includes a common living place and which exists without the benefit of legal, cultural, or religious sanction.” Between 2005 and 2009 2/3 of relationships approximately were preceded by cohabitation (“Rise of Cohabitation” 2014.) This arrangement is less committed and therefore it takes longer to end, without much emotional devastation of a pricey divorces. Most marriages still begin with cohabitation. However, it is becoming less and less likely that cohabitation will end in a marriage. Marriage is still common in today’s culture, with approximately 60.25 million married couples in 2016 (“Number of married couples in the United States from 1960 to 2016 (in millions)” 2016.) This is evident why it is killing the nuclear family standard. People are having less desire to fully commit to a marriage in the first place. 1950 social standards would have never accepted an unmarried couple as a part of a normal life so only can a legal marriage constitutes the ideal set forth. Another, way to break the standard is remove some components.

If you cannot beat them join them, this commonly used phrase is overlook and ignored by many. The power and value of this simple phrase holds in todays society is quite astonishing. Individuals ban together for a cause, influencing society and then enacting legislature to allow authoritive figures to enforce the common cause. Louisiana is a perfect example of this. The state lost government funding when they did not raise the drinking age. By pressuring, or as some say punishing, the federal government was able to use their authority to force Louisiana to coincide with the rest of the nation. More recently states are slowly but surely legalizing Gay Marriage. This is also an example of how slowly individual states are acknowledging the

Gay marriage is marriage involving two persons of the same sex is a man and a man or a woman and a woman. It can be seen as a phrase that is used by the Government, social and religious groups to have the recognition of marriage between two persons of the same sex. There is a social movement, so that people can get their rights and responsibilities in countries like the United States of America. Legal issues involved in this type of marriage have been made to the procedures of the federal Government in the traditional system, the federal Government had no attempt to have the meaning of marriage and, therefore, he had the idea that any marriage that was appreciated by the State, has also been known by the federal Government, even if there was a problem of recognition of such marriages from other States. This means that the State was responsible for the enforcement of rights that people need so that people can have their partner through the Act. The defense of marriage act and then people quickly find how issues that had to be met, and that might work and it did only definition that a marriage could be a Union between a man and a woman. Therefore, there is no company that has the recognition for this same sex as those who had pushed for legalization of sex type. (Justin, 1990)

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?

Same sex marriage has been an ongoing debate for many years. Gay people and gay supporters believe that they should be treated equally to marry whoever they want because it is how they feel and people should be understanding of that. By being human they argue that it is their right to have equality. On the other hand, Christians believe that they should not have the right to marry the same sex because it is an attack on the church and degrades the traditional concept of marriage. Due to Christians not believing in same sex marriage, they worry that now it is legal that they will be forced to accept it and preachers and pastors will be forced to marry gay couples. There are many standing viewpoints on the matter and these two points of view say the most. Does same sex marriage effect religion or not?

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

Homosexuality is the state of being attracted to people of the same gender. The gay community is often referred to by an acronym- LGBTQ. This represents the different identities within homosexuality. The “L” stands for lesbian, the “G” stands for gay, the “B” stands for bisexual, the “T” stands for transgender, and the “Q” stands for queer. There has been much debate about many different issues surrounding homosexuality. The issue that has garnered the most attention from the media and the general public is same-sex marriage. The debate around same-sex marriage is on an international scale. In many places, it is illegal to marry someone of the same gender, or even have a same-sex relationship. In this paper, I will be taking the position that

As this semester has come to a close we reach the inevitable end question, “what is truth.” This is a question which many of the authors we have read works from have differing opinions of. Through reading the works and listening to lectures through this semester I have come to the conclusion that truth is essentially whatever the person who is thinking about it decides that it should be. The people that decide what their form of truth is usually get it from people which have some type of power over them. We use these people which have a form of power over us to help decide what our own truths are and how we will go about enacting them. Christians for example do not believe in gay marriage. It is not part of their truth and most likely never will be. This is because they believe in the bible, and a god (higher power) which tells them that gay marriage is wrong. They use this information to decide what their truth is and how they will live out their lives. On the flip side of this there are many people who were raised, or influenced by people who are completely fine with gay marriage therefore those people whom they influence (the people I spoke of originally) also have that “truth” that gay marriage is fine. The thing that makes this important is the way in which both sides of this spectrum will defend their truth, and act as though it is the correct truth. When everything is essentially boiled down and looked at, truth is nothing more than an opinion one holds. Even things

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.

As Americans, we are taught that fighting for our rights is something that we have had to continuously through history. From the American Revolution, to the Civil War, to the Women 's suffrage movement of the 20’s, there has always been some sort of right. However, as we as Americans got closer to the new millennium, the fight for basic rights became a little more intense. It was no longer us as Americans fighting a common enemy such as England, it was now Americans vs Americans. Multiple issues such as gun laws and religion have separated the United States since its creation. Though recently, the main issue that has caused a divide in the American population is the issue of gay marriage.

As the months pass by, the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) community is getting tired of the same arguments in court. They as well as many other Americans are waiting for an answer. Although the solution to this public crises is to let them have their rights, many opposing people classify their arguments as correct or valid. However clear the answer may be, it has yet to be confirmed by all the states in America. Some major factors that lead to this conflict is whether homosexuality violates any religious morals, it deprives a child from either a mother or a father, and that it goes against natural law when choosing to be gay. This paper will address these claims and distinctly ensure why the LGBT community deserves its request of happiness.

Once upon a time, marriage was defined by the Bible as the holy union between a man and a woman. For centuries, this idea remained unquestioned; however, in the progressive society of the 21st century, more and more people are starting to call out its fatal flaws. People in conventional heterosexual relationships
