The Stupid Thread 2 (Part 1)

And here we will agree to celebrate the outcome.

Patently and fundamentally wrong.

No it doesn’t. Because allowing gay marriage doesn’t impact fatherless neighborhoods except in a positive way. Gay people can’t reproduce. Fatherless neighborhoods will always be hetero people’s fault

Don’t know any of this.

No, WE are below replacement. The entire world isn’t our society

Still wrong. You know how numbers work right?

Why would the state recognize gay marriage then? You’re argument is for hetero marriage’s critical role/impact.

Nope. We are below replacement fertility rates

SPOILER

Ok, so the goobacks were Time Travelers from the future who returned to present day South Park in order to work for low wages, put that money into safe investments which the interest would compound over time thus making the goobacks’ families in the future wealthy (there was economic downturns from the time that the Goobacks were from).

The present day South Park inhabitants (all blue collar workers, etc.) were upset the goobacks were undercutting their jobs by working for less and ā€œtakin der jerbsā€ so, in order to stop the inflow of Goobacks from the future, they decided to gay them away … essentially preventing future generations by engaging in a massive gay orgy … which is in a way related to what you were saying about the effects on society if heterosexuality were to disappear overnight …

For equality purposes?

Feel free to find a source to back that up. I certainly can’t find one.

U.S. Births Dip To 30-Year Low; Fertility Rate Sinks Further Below Replacement Level

The article doesn’t stand up to basic population math. Sorry about your luck lol.

Anyways. Arguing gay marriage with religious people is always both boring and hilarious. Tapping out.

Pfury, you are missing the phrase ā€œfertility ratesā€¦ā€

The ā€œreplacementā€ fertility rate of 2.1 — enough to renew the population — is typically viewed as the optimal level for stability. But in 2017, the total fertility rate, or number of births each woman is expected to have in her childbearing years, dropped to 1.76 in the US.

To be fair, I didn’t refer once to a religious faith based argument.

I simply pointed out that the two aren’t remotely equal/the same. Then I waited for someone to start acting like we have some objective and universal moral obligation to act to the contrary. Nobody bit. Had they, they would have put forth something (lack of support for gay marriage is morally wrong/evil) they can not empircally demonstrate.

So if objectively they simply aren’t equal, and there is no moral obligation to recognize both, I don’t feel the need to support both.

@Sloth I’m curious, you seem to be implying without gay marriage gay couples would not be living the way they currently do. Do you believe legalizing gay marriage turned people gay?

I simply don’t care. I believe the state has no more pressing interest in gay coupling than it does in fishing buddies. Or, in consenting 20 person poly-partnered non-romantic/sexual arrangements. It does have a extremely valid interest in hetero coupling.

Women should have to die and get mamed against their will too. Or be considered scumbags for dodging it (fake Rhodes scholarships and bone spurs).

This is why I think including women will kill the draft. Society has never really cared about sending young men off to die in someone else’s war.

But if you can slap a pretty low 20s mother up there with an obituary no pol that voted for the war will be seeing a reelection.
