In order to be approved for a drivers licence I must pass a test. I must show knowledge and profeciency.

When two marry they ask society for approval of the relationship. In order to receive approval, they must meet certain rules. The rules are that we cannot marry first cousins, siblings, parents or children, we cannot marry if we are already married, or if our partner is someone of the same gender.

You can marry your first cousin in 26 states.

Likewise, same sex marriages should be a state by state issue.

Does California have rules you must follow to get a marraige approved?

Didn't the people of California pass a proposition confining marriage to two people of opposite gender?

Yes, and yes.

...but this doesn't mean that our representatives can't try to change it. The "rules" allow it. Laws are not static.

It is also illegal to build a fire under your mule to get him to pull a wagon in Maine. (IIRC) Many laws were passed in the past which are generally not enforced or enforcable, but have not been taken off the books.

Virginia IIRC is a state which has laws against certain generally accepted sexual behaviors. Their state advertising slogan? "Virginia is for lovers"

In which states is it still illegal for consenting adults of the same sex to have sex?
To see a map showing this, see
http://www.lambdalegal.org/cgi-bin/iowa/states/sodomy-map

These laws, referred to as "sodomy laws," vary from state to state regarding which acts are illegal. Speaking generally, though, there remain 13 states in the U.S. with such laws. (Nearly every state - maybe every single state? - used to have these laws, but GLBT activists have worked for many years to get them off the books.)

Currently, 9 states outlaw certain acts (usually oral and/or anal sex) between consenting adults, whether the people engaging in them are of the same sex or different sexes. But, of course, the laws are virtually never enforced against heterosexual couples.

Okay, those 9 are:
Virginia
North Carolina
South Carolina
Florida
Alabama
Mississippi
Louisiana
Utah
Idaho

However I do believe Louisiana just had one hell of a blow job

why were at it lets let NAMBLA have their special rights.

Gays don't presently have equal rights. They can't marry the one they love.

Two consenting adults should have the right to marry each other. Why we get all up in arms because of what others will do shouldn't have a bearing on how we act.

My wife and I will not think less of our marriage if some gays get married. What they do doesn't concern us.

Will anyone of us actually love our spouses less?
The sanctity of marriage wil not be jeopardized because homosexuals are given the same rights as heterosexuals.

BTW, try not to use that slippery slope of NAMBLA example.
1) Nambla members are mentally sick that want to prey on helpless kids.
2) This is hardly an arrangement of consenting adults.
3) NAMBLA men rarely admit to being homosexual. Those pedofiles that actually want/have sex with young boys rarely have sexual relations with other men.

I think it has to do because the Gay guy gets beaten up soley for the fact that he is gay. Rarely is it the other way around.

Gays have THAT RIGHT

topic is marriage and currently a marriage is between a man and a woman. Gays have that right. They arent being descriminated against because they are gay. This isn't about rights. All the talk of bringing up bigotry in the past is irelevent because they HAVE THE SAME RIGHTS and are not descriminated against BECAUSE THEY ARE GAY.

They want special rights. SO AGAIN. all people being equal. Gays want the special right to marry those that they love. Whouldn't this open the door for others that want special rights?

LMAO! That's not an argument, that's a petitio principii.

ack-ack

I don't have equal rights, as I can't marry Jennifer Connelly.

dear sweet jesus, i have created a monster.

here are my opinions that i have held back untill the conversation had developed:

1. let gays marry
2. lesbian sex is hot
3. people wont marry animals or minors because of the fact that those people mentioned cannot be trusted to make their own decision, there is a reason you cant bone a retard
4. i think we can all agree that jennifer connelly is hot.

PS
i would like to thank you all for keeping religious beliefs out of the issue.
