Dear Rehctub,

How can your marriage be the same as anyone
else's?

That doesn't make sense.

Beach, prattles on about singles paying for "gay love", yet we all pay a huge price for the likes of the Catholic Church to have its members engage in pedophile "love" of our children, we not only massively subsidize their institutions to take care of children, what a sick joke, we give these churches tax free status. Its the hypocritical devotees of religions which are the loudest whingers when it comes to gay marriage.

Gay marriage is radical change to marriage, turning the whole concept on its head. Among other things, it breaks the essential connection between procreation and marriage and secondly, marriage becomes temporary.

The elephant in the room is that the whole rationale for giving 'marrieds' preferential treatment, entitlements and concessions, directly and indirectly, has been lost as well.

That is especially so because the 'married' rump of the population has been increased significantly by de factos gaining married entitlements and then by adding homosexual 'relationships' (feminist new speak for their reengineered de facto) as well.

Marrieds' sole argument for special treatment is their 'love', whatever that is.

So, why should single people be forced to pay for gay 'love'?

Beach, i understand that there are benefits paid by the state to parents etc of children for their up bring. What additional benefits will gay married couples without children receive from the state, once gay marriage is legalised?

Paul1405,

That would be to ignore the extensions to the number of 'marrieds' that have already occurred and without the mandate of the Australian people.

While both Kevin Rudd and Julia Gillard personally opposed gay marriage, the governments they led were obsessed with social experimentation to accord with socialist and radical feminist ideology.

The notable example and relevant here was the rejigging and extending the coverage of de facto (redefined in accord with radical feminist idealism) and to include gays. All gained the unearned benefits and entitlements, being regarded as 'married' - which was the sly intent of the changes.

That was doubtless as pay-offs to Greens and other political activists for deals done for their electoral support.

Why should singles, young working singles especially but all singles, be required to pay for gay 'love'?

Beach, can you answer the question; If a childless couple, any couple, marry this Saturday, what new additional state funded benefits are they entitled to on Sunday which they weren't entitled to on Friday? Please, can you list them for me.
