Gay Marriage

Hello conservative right wingers:

Why do you deny the happiness, that you yourself enjoy, from your fellow citizens? Isn't doing that UN Christianlike???? I think it IS!!!

You are bad and wrong for doing that. Tell my why you're not.

I wasn't commenting on your post, I'm commenting on the topic of the thread.

My initial point was, is that the government is involved in almost every facet of our lives. This turned into a conversation of morality. It's true that what one person calls moral, another may call immoral.

The conversation then turned to the age of consent. Just because someone believes that just because whatever the laws of their country, or religious beliefs, makes it right for a teenager to be mentally or emotionally ready to have sex, or be ready for marriage.

Will they do it anyway?...of course they will. Do most?...unfortunately yes.

Maybe if they understood the ramifications of their actions, at the age they are, they would do things differently. Maybe they wouldn't!

There is definitely a reason why there are so many teenage single mothers, so many young mothers that have either aborted, or put so many children up for adoption, or are living off of the system. They were in puberty, and did not have the ability to recognise the consequences of their actions.

A 16 yr. old, or much younger as some people claim to be just the norm., is just not ready for the responsibily that comes with having sex at that age.

Clunk...fell off of my soap box again.

I agree Starbs. Couldn't agree more. I have two friends and a cousin (all under 20) that recently got pregnant. One is continuing with the pregnancy and plans to be a single mother, one continued with her pregnancy and just gave her baby up for adoption (open adoption), and one aborted. And to see the changes and challenges with these girls has really showed me lots. And solidified my desire to not have babies til at least 28.

Maybe in the U.S this is true but for most underdeveloped countries it is not

Marriage and sex at 16

Alot of that has to do with the life expectancy being shorter because of poor health care. So women have children and start families alot younger.

In America ((and alot of other countries)) we have a longer life expectancy and want our youth to get an education before making adult choices that can change their lives.
