So you're saying all humans are all gay, it just the law that stops us from ''being gay''?

Well, it appears you are one of the advocates of LGBT marriage. This evil practice is condemned, in strongest terms, by God in both the Qur'an and the Bible. So I can't be and don't have to be God's spokesman to know a sinful action and condemn it, since I can read God's laws in His holy Books. We all know what's right and what's wrong, this distinction is not difficult to make most times. But some people have chosen to remain blind and deaf to the evils committed by their fellow men, simply because such actions don't affect the prices of foods in the markets; as if they came to this world just to eat.
There is a saying in Yorubaland: 'ti ara ile eyan ba n je kokoro, wurun ere e koni je a gbadun ti o ba ya', meaning 'if your neighbour has the habit of committing wrongful acts, by the time he faces the consequences of his actions you will not be spared'.

This is an exercise similar to pointlessness. The USA is a secular state, of what relevance is there to attach religious values such as Islamic and Christian ones to it. This is how discussions break down because people like you lack the understanding for the basics.

Marriage is an institution backed up by law and morals. Imagine marriages lacked the backing from the law. The husband can abandon his wife and suffer no legal and moral consequences. If there is no coercion how would the marriage work? It just can not. God does not come down himself to enforce marriages.
Re: America's Supreme Court Makes Gay Marriage Legal by vapid: 1:43pm On Jun 27, 2015
I dont understand what 'lets imagine' has to do with anything.
the law says let those who are gay be allowed to be gay. it doesnt force anybody to be gay. so if your imaginary calculation that humans would go extinct stands, it then means that in hundred years everybody would love being gay so much that they'll stop being heterosexual.
you need to open your mind, stop living in a cocoon.
the way you're thinking now is the same way whites were thinking when slavery was being abolished. They thought, and some still think, blacks do not have equal rights before the law.
For godssake, a person decides they love someone, who are you to tell him otherwise

Its a strategy to tackle the problems of over population, i think
There is more danger with the rate of men and women coupling and having babies and pushing every boundry of the earth with population, so many people that they are mashed like rodents on the roads in auto accidents.
So many people that communicable diseases spread easily and quickly. Land, water and other resources grow more scarce by the day, even the air is not so breathable anymore.
What is my business with what people do in their private quarters when they are not bringing out herds of children to push the population to overage levels and making it easier to suffer in future generations..
There are bigger issues and risks facing all of humanity and they have nothing to do with who is doing who..

And you are not smart enough to know that there are several Muslims and Christians in the US. I've only made my views known here as a Nigerian, I am neither an American nor do I live in US.

That would be the major reason such a lawsuit will fail, at least on the marriage aspect. Judges all over the world, including the US, most times defer to their cultural/religious beliefs when the law is silent on some disputes. I mean it would be tough for a Nigerian judge to overturn a ban on gay marriage, with the knowledge that he/she may forever be ostracized by his hometown cheesy cheesy

If you check the profile of the Supreme Court Juctices of Nigeria, majority of them don't come across really as the brightest bunches.

I would expect more of guttural judgements from them that ones based on high intellect and logic.

The homosexual cause has no chance in Nigeria.

True, there is a public side to these so called privacy rights. It is indeed a paradox.

And this is why I am highly irritated when I see all this pro-homosexual cretins come up with their usual and hackneyed platitudinal question of "How does what 2 consenting adults doing in the privacy of their bedroom affect you?".

Like if it ends in the bedroom.

People are funny sha, i fail to see how this will affect us living in Nigeria, how would this reduce the price of fuel and what significant impact does it add?

Really i wonder why people are taking it so personal, we have bigger issues at hand here and some people are talking bull on top people that have no business with them.

I personally believe that people who have issues with gay people are suppressed gays. That is the best way to understand their obsession with gay folks.

if you don't understand the concept behind it i see no reason why you should open your mouth to talk poo and condemn it, when your opinion doesn't change the fact that the law has been made undecided

Most Nigerians are just filled with hate and i-can't-mind-my-business-syndrome. This is another reason why Nigeria is not moving forward. smh!

Your argument is rather pointless, I'm uninterested about your terms in Government; whether US is a secular or not. My view on this issue is not pedagogical, but pragmatic and ethical. There is a clear dichotomy between good and evil, marriage, as institutionalised by God, is a union between man and woman. Anything other than this is evil and an aberration.

The Supreme Court of the US, does not owe allegiance to God rather to the Constitution. These technical points are indispensable. Yes there is a clear dichotomy of good and evil to linear thinkers like you (no offence intended) forgetting that morals themselves are built into value systems like Christianity, secularity etc. For seculars, who believe tolerance is outward projection of love, evil will be your own good. But that aside, the decision is a legal one and should be discussed as such.

All right, Mr. non-linear thinker. My view on the issue still remains the same: same sex marriage is abhorrent.

This is why dialogues break down. Some people like you are incapable of communicating their differences. Very soon, same sex decriminalization will be a legitimate discussion in Nigeria and all you can say is, it is abhorrent.

I have no reason to argue with you on this issue further. You and your cohort can have carnal knowledge of one another as much as you want. If I find any gay or lesbian around my vicinity, I will not hesitate to report him to the authorities. And I strongly hope and pray this evil thought of yours, as related to this issue, doesn't see the light of the day in Nigeria.
