Unnecessary Arguments, Part II
Date: 2006-07-25
Following up on yesterday’s post about global warming, I thought of another example of an unnecessary argument. This one has to do with gay marriage.
Social conservatives sometimes argue that it is a choice to be gay, not something that you are born with. The liberals bite.
It shouldn’t be about why someone is gay. It should be about equal rights alone. It should be about being able to marry any consenting adult, whether you are straight or gay, or even if the relationship based completely on friendship alone – a “life partner” type arrangement.

Well, I have to admit I agree with that great Texas mind and curently a candidate for Governor of that great
State, Kinky Friedman, who believes that gay people should have the right to marry. After all, as Kinky so
artfully puts it…why shouldn’t they have the same rights to be miserable just like the rest of us?
