Vote Yes on Measure 36

[Raditzu]

Any of you under 18, or not in the US might need a bit of a background. Each househols containing a registered voter is sent a Voter's Pamphlet. A few, actually. In one such pamphlet are the measures to be voted upon in the up-coming election, complete with reasons for or against a given measure. It costs $500 to submit an argument in the pamphlet. Measure 36 has to do with same-sex marriges. If this measure passed, the constitution would be amended and same-sex marriges would be unconstitutional. Here's why you should vote yes on 36

CULTURE WAR!

Traditional values are under attack, and sexual perverts are attempting to strain the definition of marriage far beyond what God has ordained. The World of the Lord must be legislated as Oregon public policy.

In the Holy Bible, Saint Paul says the Christians should remain single and abstan from sex. The New Testament says that people should get married only if they are too weak-willed to abstain from sex:

"It is well for a man not to touch a woman... It is well... to remain single as I do. But if they cannot exercise self-control, they should marry. For it is better to marry than to be aflame with passion." (I Corinthians 7:1, 8-9)

Marriage is not sacred. Marriage is for wimps and sissies!

Oregon public policy should define marriage in accordance with divinely inspired Scirpture. Therefore, marriage licenses should be granted only to those persons who have been certified by professional psychiatric examination to be too weak-willed to abstain from sex.

Oh, by the way, although Jesus never said a single word condemning homosexuality, is heterosexuals can't get married, homosexuals shouldn't be allowed to marry either -- well, unless they're too weak-willed to abstain. Sissies!

The sissy institution of marriage must not be perverted by sinners who are capable of abstaining! The sacred union of church and state must prohibit the immoral union of men and women capable of the discipline of sexual abstinence. We are not saved by either faith or good works. We are saved by religious-right legislation!

Freedom of religion and equal treatment under law is simply the special right to sin, because our tradition is the one and only truth! And our tradition (that is, our personal moral opinions) should become law.

AGREE WITH US OR BURN IN HELL!

That is ver batim as it appears in the voter's pamphlet. This isn't about religion, or gay marriages, or anything like that. It's about how awesome the human race is.

*loves people*

[Reijin]

Holy crap. They spell like kindergarteners, and from their arguements, they debate on the same level.

How old ARE you? o_0

EDIT: What 14 said >.>

[Hellfighter 17]

raditzu are you joking again, because why would the bible say it is unholy to get married and have sex, that's basically saying that 'God' doesn't want the human race to continue.

[Hellfighter 17]

Can'y you guys just check the profiles.

First of all, I'm 20 years old, with a wife and a daughter. Do NOT insult me like that.

Second, I dont know if you noticed, but I just gave you a warning, and your on the verge of a second warning. All I did was ask your age and there is no need to insult me.

[Reijin]

Bah, Burter, chill out. I don't think that was meant to be offensive, and I wouldn't take it very seriously man.

Bardock, yeah, you got a warning earlier for the repeated OOC posts on the IC forums despite the fact that I and several others have repeatedly said something to you and moved each post. We are going to have to start cracking down.

He just takes his role here seriously and he is cool.

[Burter]

Sorry, I'm kinda of senstive when someone mentions I'm a "stiff prick." I go through alot of shit, so I deserve to be stiff.

Anyway, back on topic.

Marriage is not sacred. Marriage is for wimps and sissies!

Best. Line. Ever.

*realizes he's married*

He's not joking. I live in Oregon, I am looking at that article in my voters pamphlet as I type this. It says everything, even "AGREE WITH US OR BURN IN HELL!"

I hate these fucking cockbags.

[Raditzu]

Yeah. Did you see where I said "all of that is ver batim"? That means I typed it in word for word, including all of the damned bold.

That is exactly as it appears.
