ACLU sues for gays' benefits |
Why would any man need another man to provide him with health care
benefits? The advantage of gay partnerships is that there are no
children at home that need attending. Let each man provide his own
health care, just like single straight people do. This notion that one
guy stays home and plays "Donna Reed" while the other one goes to work
should not become a burden on the American health care system. The
people of Michigan (and many other states) have spoken; No gay
marriage. Stop seeking "special" dispensations just because your
different.
http://www.freep.com/news/mich/gay22e_20050322.htm
Despite marriage ban, couples want health care
The American Civil Liberties Union filed a lawsuit Monday asking the
courts to protect same-sex couples' health benefits in light of a state
constitutional ban on gay marriage.
In the suit, filed in Ingham County Circuit Court, the ACLU asked the
court to stipulate that the ban on gay marriage does not extend to
health care benefits for same-sex partners. The amendment, they said,
is ambiguous.
The ACLU filed the suit less than a week after state Attorney General
Mike Cox issued his legal interpretation about what effect the
amendment should have on health benefits. He concluded that the
amendment bans government agencies from extending benefits to same-sex
couples in any future contract negotiations.

Because a motor car is unable to offer consent to enter into a

In the NeoChristian faith "informed consent" means "slave submit to your
husbands; wives submit to your masters" or somesuch.

Look Up, "Things Change." Remember that it wasn't too long ago that
two men couldn't get married in kanada...Things change. You might not
even be able to imagine how much things change. I suspect it won't be
too much longer that a man will be able to have four wives in kanada.
What's good for the kanadian homosexual is good for the kanadian
heterosexual MUSLIM.
Ugandan 'polygamy' bill protest
By Will Ross
BBC News, Kampala
There were lots of Muslim women at the demonstration
More than 1,000 Muslims have demonstrated in the Ugandan capital,
Kampala, against a proposed law which they say contradicts the Koran.
The Domestic Relations Bill, which is due to be debated in parliament,
is designed to harmonise family relations and protect the rights of
women.
But the Muslim community say aspects of the bill contravene Islamic
law.
Some protesters stood outside the gates of parliament holding placards
urging MPs to leave the holy book alone.
They see the bill as an attempt to rewrite the Koran.
'No compromise'
One of the contentious issues in the bill concerns polygamy. It states
that a husband should seek permission from his first wife before
taking a second.
On the issue of inheritance, the proposed law calls on women to be
given a fair share of a husband's wealth.
The Muslim community reject this noting that the Koran stipulates what
women may inherit if their husband dies.
There were plenty of Muslim women also at today's demonstration. Some
held four fingers in the in support of the Islamic law which allows a
man to have four wives.
One of the key aims of the bill is to protect the rights of women.
Parliamentarians will be debating whether to end cultural practices
such as wife inheritance and the paying of dowries or bride price.
But for some, the bill does not go far enough, for example, it does
not in its present form condemn marital rape.
Although this demonstration was peaceful, some Muslims say they are
prepared to use violent means to resist the proposed law.
Muslim leaders have called for the law to exempt Muslims as they say
Islamic law cannot be compromised.
Muslims account for more than 10% of the country's population.
***
And world wide they far, FAR out number homosexuals. Think about what
will happen in kanada, moose, when the Muslims get pissed about not
being able to have four wives. They are going to point at you homos
(sexuals and philes) and say. "Hey, dude! You allowed exceptions for
them!."

Because marriage is a sacred sacrament between a man and a woman,
unless, of course, you don't like what one of the spouses does, in which
case you get Congress to pass a law protecting the other spouse's civil
right to have her wishes totally ignored.

Yep! Let's make laws against people we find "uncool". Next, we'll have

hard-right religious neocons "uncool." Do I get to pass laws against

But besides that, if everyone involved is a consenting adult, why not?
Because marriage is a sacred sacrament between a man and a woman,

unless, of course, you don't like what one of the spouses does, in which
case you get Congress to pass a law protecting the other spouse's civil
right to have her wishes totally ignored.

Hello, theocracy with a fundamentalist US Supreme
Court who will ensure church and state are joined
at the hip like clergy and altar boys.

relationships.

Look Up, "Things Change." Remember that it wasn't too long ago that
two men couldn't get married in kanada...Things change. You might not
even be able to imagine how much things change. I suspect it won't be
too much longer that a man will be able to have four wives in kanada.
What's good for the kanadian homosexual is good for the kanadian
heterosexual MUSLIM.
"Canada."
Oh, your Bible supports polygamy as well.
Get off the "your bible" *****, boy. My "religion" has no written
scriptures, no body of religious law, and only a very
loosely-organized priesthood. You are far more a conformist to a dogma
than I am. You fucking hypocrite.

Then why aren't you campaigning for polygamy too? Why do you only want
an exception for homosexuals? Are you a homosexual or just a flaming
homophile?
