Ellen Degeneres Vs. John McCain: Gay Marriage 

TRUMP

There is nothing respectful about beïng against gay marriage, no matter which way you put it. It's irrational to be against it.

While I am pro gay marriage, I respectfully have to disagree. I believe everyone has the right to voice their opinion, wether or not it's irrational and offensive. I have very little respect for John McCain but with the current US President and many other new politician's I can't help but feel like he wasn't so bad after all.

Republican logic 101: as long as you act nice and follow decorum, you are moral and Godly - even though you are the biggest war mongerer in the senate.

So if you don't agree with gay marriage you're disrespectful? Everyone has a right to disagree as long as they are not push there beliefs on others. There is nothing wrong with agreeing to disagree.

+Anonymous well to be fair you biologically can't procreate when your gay. But I still support gays having the right absolutely.

Umm he was literally rolling his eyes at her.

That's like saying "I don't hate black people, I just disagree"

@@thethiccboi9826 Silly comparison. Black is just who you are. I cannot change the fact I am black. I can bleach but I still remain black.

@@erinzuniga512 Being black is visible. Being gay isn't though. Unless obviously you kiss a person with the same gender.

Loved the part when he said some people should not be able to get married ❣️ So wholesome

@@GimbalosMorkinar I'm gay and a full on supporter for equal rights for all. I share Ellen's viewpoint completely. But at the same time, I can respect John McCain for going on Ellen in 2009 (which was a completely different time for marriage equality) to discuss his views on the matter. And the fact that though he doesn't want to call it a marriage license he does support equal rights for lgbtq couples under the law (you should look up the documentary 'bridegroom' and you'll understand that the actual rights are far more important than that what we'll call it). So his point of view, as a republican in 2009, was better then expected. A lot better then expected. And while I would dissagree with McCain on almost all matters, policy wise, that doesn't prohibit me from respecting the man. He was a decent, good man and he earned my respect!

@@MrMickey1987 "This one KKK member wasn't as bad as the other ones" He was still part of the GQP even though he wasn't as bad as the other member.

@@GimbalosMorkinar yeah, you lost me with kkk. McCain wasn't anything like that 😒

@@MrMickey1987 No but the republican party is basically the racist south. You understand why being a good guy in a racist party is troublesome. Either it doesn't bother him or he supports it.

Glad to know he at least evolved on that issue before he passed away. Was many of the reasons I didn't vote for him in 2008, but deep down, the guy was a great person.

If there was more basic respect there would be more communication and more communication means PEACE

Fuck off bitch

Dildon.t John McCain was an awful politician for reasons beyond just this

His opinion tangibly affected people's lives personally and monetarily. You are what you believe.

Ian Mccown sure he is professional, but still he doesn't support gay marriage

+Hannah Marie - Why should he support same-sex marriage?

im comparing how much better he is than trump. i support same sex marraige, i know john doesnt, but id still vote mccain if he ran. Hes actually a decent guy who i disagree with onnsome things.

+Hannah Marie - R President + R Senate + R Representatives = Good-bye Same-Sex Marriage.

+Larry Rutger - Okay, but for those who think same-sex marriage is a done deal, they dream unrealistically and ignore reality. Even more so if they think it cannot be reversed. Three-fourths votes by state legislators can amendment the Constitution that would reverse the SCOTUS ruling. That is how Prohibition was repealed in 1933. Also, the SCOTUS can overrule itself. It happened in 2003 when Congress passed the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act, in response to the court in Stenberg v. Carhart ruling that the partial-birth abortion ban in Nebraska had been ruled unconstitutional. In 2007, the SCOTUS reversed itself in Gonzales v, Carhart to uphold Congress’s Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act. A scenario of what could happen with same-sex marriage is Congress pass a law banning it, which, of course, would be unconstitutional and challenged in the courts. Eventually it would reach the higher court, which would then revisit arguments against same-sex marriage and depending on the Justices, reach a different ruling than the past one. Remember, the President, along with the majority of the Senate, the House of Representatives, State Governors, and State Legislators, are Republicans, not to mention the Justices they will be replacing.

@111092731414871330 Looks like religion is not moral after all. With perverted imaginations like those, who the hell wants to follow it? Only sadists.

+de Castro Reviews You sound paranoid and childish. Were your feelings triggered? Lmao

To waste time into making sock puppet accounts... It's obvious who has the lower standards.

I'm not saying we can't be friends. I'm saying that marriage should be between a man and a woman because it's just right. Men and women were made to be together. I have absolutely no hate for homosexuals, but gay marriage just isn't right. And that's the opinion of me and many others.

adventurernumber1 I respect that but disagree. I'm not looking for an argument. Everyone can have their own opinions!

adventurernumber1 A lot of people feel the same way about interracial marriage, as well as many other things that were once looked at as out of the norm. It is a nice thing that cultures can change and learn to accept other people's differences. In fact, it is something our country has thrived on over the years. It will be nice when this is just another thing that people look back on and say "wow, that was illegal? how silly!" and have better things to worry about. After all, this doesn't affect anyone in their personal lives except the gay folks who want to settle down together.

Read some of the moronic comments posted, do you really think you'ed want to be friends with any of these low functioning droolers?

NothingButTrouble Yes, but you're implying that we can't be friends and that's dishonest overkill to make a point. People will continue to disagree on this subject for decades. A more appropriate question would be - Can you respectfully accept the other side's viewpoint (without trying to subversively convert them to your way of thinking)?

well said.

you heard of his guy named “Phil Defranco”?

Barry McCockiner lol..must be good weed.

Barry McCockiner "good Christian" Now there's an oxymoron if I ever saw one.

Barry McCockiner God will judge everyone rightfully, please don't make God into a judgmental and hateful God. You may be the only bible someone reads, how are you demonstrating God's love?

He hates the sin, not the sinner

John McCain avoided answering the question. Donald Trump should learn nothing from this bigot.

how did he avoid the question? he answered and said he did not support it? Senator McCain is a very respectable man, definitely not a bigot. Donald Trump should learn everything from this man.

+JakeStuckAtHome - R President + R Senate + R Representatives = Good-bye Same-Sex Marriage.

Jerry Krause that would be a long long process, If Trump wanted to overturn a Supreme Court decision, it would be a long and involved process. But it can be done in two ways: One, states themselves can amend the Constitution, which requires approval by three-fourths of all state legislators. In fact, this is how Prohibition was repealed in 1933. The other is that the Supreme Court can overrule itself. In the case of marriage equality, for example, this can only happen if the court finds itself revisiting same-sex marriage due to a new conflict that pertains to the decision. This type of action by The Supreme Court is very uncommon but possible.

McCain no doubt has "evolved" on this issue since that interview. sadly he kissed Jesus Freak ass a little too long to be considered on the right side of history. You can either appease assholes or oppose them. He switched sides too late.

+Thomas Herdman - Exactly, you got that right. Thank you for sharing that.

Tom Herdman Agreed 👍

I may have missed the flack (seriously, I didn’t read all the comments). What I saw was Ellen showing him great respect, and the comments I’ve read haven’t been making him out to be a villain.

shut up marcel... u comment shit

Tom Herdman “war hero”, I laughed out loud at that. Somebody seems to have forgotten about the POW camps

Riiiight. Because CLEARLY traditional families are best. The divorce rate ISN'T extremely high among the straight community. Your logic is incredibly flawed. And homosexuality is NOT the same as a child molester. It's appalling that you would suggest it. A homosexual relationship is between two consenting ADULTS. You clearly have no brain, otherwise you might use logic to combat old stereotypes and the like.

Allie Towe Please excuse wally, see he was molested as a child and takes his unresolved issues out here. He's a sick, sad little troll.

M akis If that were true then why are infertile people allowed to marry? Marriage is really just a legal contract between two people used for tax reasons. This is the reason I don't really believe in it for myself. But still, marriage isn't about having children in this day and age. People get married and don't have children, people who can't have children get married, women who are post-menopausal get married. Clearly, it isn't merely about procreation. Like I said, I don't particularly want to sign any papers to justify my love for someone, but it should be a choice for everyone. Everyone should be able to do it, heterosexual or homosexual. It is one of our basic rights as Americans.

M akis People know, going into marriage, that they don't want children or can't have children. Yet they still get married. Marriage is purely a social/legal contract for tax reasons. That's it. And homosexuals still have the ability to raise children together. The fact that they can't actually produce them is irrelevant in my eyes.

M akis Tradition has changed immensely. Marriage used to be arranged. It used to be between a man and multiple women. It used to be between family members. Tradition changes with the times and right now, marriage is about a union between two people.

Jesus hung out with these folks because he loved the sin not the sinner.

Jesus was close with sinners because these were the people that needed to be saved the most. He did not come for the righteous but the sinner in hopes they will see truth and turn from sin

macaronimick Indeed, and could you imagine hanging with the guy?! And what's really surprising is how few people ever seem to catch on. I mean, the guy's middle name should have been party, a total freakin' ANIMAL! Ahem, I mean, bless His holy name.

***** Oh my gosh, good point, then what would be next for heaven's sake?! Oh Lord Jebus I can see now, cats and dogs co-habitating, and then (shudder) just imagine, the last stop on this country's road to perdition: INTER-RACIAL marriage!

lauren forbes - Most "Conservative Christians" would *_hate_* Jesus. After all. he was a long-haired, beard-wearing, Liberal Jew. And because He said to give your money to the poor, as it's easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter Heaven.

Totally. And the minority should never vote on the rights of the majority. In fact, let's round up everyone, force them to register every opinion, belief, or connection they have, tally up, and divide them into minority/majority on every single issue. Then we'll say you can only vote on those things if you're a part of the camp that supports them. That'll solve EVERYTHING.

Imagine 3 workers deciding who does what work Worker 1 suggests they all do the same Worker 2 suggests worker 1 does ALL the work Worker 3, not wanting to work, agrees with worker 2 This proves it doesn't always work. The minority should always get a say

Then the boss comes in and says get to work

I hope he rots in hell

***** Being gay is normal. You are not. We are humans. You are just a screaming troll.

Johnny Chester Sooo...instead of actually trying to understand science, you just want to yell "God did it!" lol okay. But people that believe in evolution are morons...so you actually don't believe in any type of evolution at all?

Johnny Chester No, all you did was say something can't come out of nothing, so God made it. That's literally your argument.

Johnny Chester Lying & saying it's irrelevant wont make it so. You didnt give any information. You just gave your beliefs & delusions. That is not information.

xXnvb123Xx There are churches in midwest where i live and work, who welcome same sex couples since 2005. I have very progressive pastor in ohio who is pro science, pro marriage for all. Who is not fundmentalist like john hage. or pastors u hear and see on tv. ucc of ohio untied church of christ have welcome gay people since 2005. Because jesus love everyone!

Maybe so, in the sense that segregation and racism affect a person's entire life where marriage mainly affects a person's legal rights with regards to their partner. HOWEVER when we compare racist people and anti-lgbt people, the mindset is similar. They believe their god has spoken, or they've never met a member of the affected group so they can't see them as human beings, or they have a hard time un-learning the negative notions they were taught as a child. And both the gay marriage ban and segregation served to remind the affected groups that they were not seen equally in their government's eyes, which is unacceptable.

I don’t think it is. Not so long ago black peoples weren’t allowed to get married to white people. Just because of the colour of there skin. Just like a man couldn’t marry a man just because of their gender. It’s not that far fetched to compare the two.

Well, that's Ellen. Generally, absurd.

Ibrahim obviously you are straight....didn’t know people who were targets of racism had the exclusivity on suffering.

@@ddoubleddutch2219 Ridiculous comparison.

e2sguy What's your point, sir?

Honey Badger Then can homosexual sex lead to a creation of a human being? Don't you forget that sex is meant to procreate and produce other human beings so that mankind could survive. Unfortunately for you, homosexuality surely can't provide it.

Joel Kotto You forget that sex is not ONLY about reproduction. It's about pleasure too. So denying gay people homosexual intercourse isn't our call. It's the people who are gay that want to.

Melvin Bryant Morality literally has NOTHING to do with God or the Bible. The official definition of morality says nothing about God or the Bible in it. Morality is about what's right and what's wrong. So denying Gay people the right to get married is wrong. Besides, basic human rights like homosexual marriage shouldn't be an issue in the first place nor should it be up for a debate. The Constitution mentions nothing about marriage. Same thing for premarital sex. It's a human right. It's not the courts place to declare something like that unconstitutional or constitutional. Also, marriage isn't just a union between a man and a woman. That's never been established in history. So you're wrong there too. Fuck your God, fuck your Bible, and double fuck your religion. YOU guys are the only "sinners" here!

Honey Badger In case you don't know, the Bible promotes a moral ideal based on love and the faith in God. God's rules are not forced on anybody even though they're meant to help us have spiritually healthier lives so that our relationships with each other could be the best ever. Moral is a natural thing humans use to guide their own lives but what doesn't really follow the natural path is homosexuality who'll never bring humanity to a higher level (maybe extinction)... For your curse to religions, I hope you'll get God's forgiveness. At least, you got mine currently... Have a nice day then.

WWEGamesMontages both diseases that heterosexuals can get

WWEGamesMontages There are no diseases gay people get that straight people don't get too. Try not being evil & wrong all your life.

***** Saying it is a man & woman doesn't make it true. Children are not negatively affected by homosexuality. They are negatively affected by bigotry & prejudice. Homosexuality is normal. Try not being wrong.

***** not in my state, in my state it includes gays you would rather they believe the lie that its not normal?

***** It is completely normal for a man to love a man or a woman to love a woman or a man to love a woman or the opposite.

i agree fully

+fireice2037 it was used to keep things in order and to also explain things that were unexplainable (much like zeus and the gods)

one piece of evidence i have is the fact that Jesus’s Story is an Obvious Rehashing Of Numerous Previous Characters Perhaps even more compelling is the story of Christ himself. As it turns out the story is not even remotely original. It is instead nothing more than a collection of bits and pieces from dozens of other stories that came long before. Here are some examples. Asklepios healed the sick, raised the dead, and was known as the savior and redeemer. Hercules was born of a divine father and mortal mother and was known as the savior of the world. Dionysus was literally the “Son of God”, was born of a woman who had not had sex with a man, and was depicted riding a donkey. He was a traveling teacher who performed miracles, and was killed and resurrected, after which time he became immortal. Osiris did the same things. He was born of a virgin, was considered the first true king of the people, and when he died he rose from the grave and went to heaven. Osiris’s son, Horus, was known as the “light of the world”, “The good shepherd”, and “the lamb”. He was also referred to as, “The way, the truth, and the life.” His symbol was a cross-like symbol. Mithra‘s birthday was celebrated on the 25th of December, his birth was witnessed by local shepherds who brought him gifts, had 12 disciples, and when he was done on earth he had a final meal before going up to heaven. On judgment day he’ll return to pass judgment on the living and the dead. The good will go to heaven, and the evil will die in a giant fire. His holiday is on Sunday (he’s the Sun God). His followers called themselves “brothers”, and their leaders “fathers”. They had baptism and a meal ritual where symbolic flesh and blood were eaten. Heaven was in the sky, and hell was below with demons and sinners. Krishna had a miraculous conception that wise men were able to come to because they were guided by a star. After he was born an area ruler tried to have him found and killed. His parents were warned by a divine messenger, however, and they escaped and was met by shepherds. The boy grew up to be the mediator between God and man. Buddha‘s mother was told by an angel that she’d give birth to a holy child destined to be a savior. As a child he teaches the priests in his temple about religion while his parents look for him. He starts his religious career at roughly 30 years of age and is said to have spoken to 12 disciples on his deathbed. One of the disciples is his favorite, and another is a traitor. He and his disciples abstain from wealth and travel around speaking in parables and metaphors. He called himself “the son of man” and was referred to as, “prophet”, “master”, and “Lord”. He healed the sick, cured the blind and deaf, and he walked on water. One of his disciples tried to walk on water as well but sunk because his faith wasn’t strong enough. Apollonius of Tyana (a contemporary of Jesus) performed countless miracles (healing sick and crippled, restored sight, casted out demons, etc.) His birth was of a virgin, foretold by an angel. He knew scripture really well as a child. He was crucified, rose from the dead and appeared to his disciples to prove his power before going to heaven to sit at the right hand of the father. He was known as, “The Son of God”, so far we only have 2 possible options : God created all these stories and characters thousands of years before the Bible in order to trick people, and then created new stories and characters that were almost exactly the same. But the version that went into the Bible-even with all the contradictions and immoral teachings-is the actual word of God. …OR… The Bible was created during a time where stories were orally passed down over thousands of years. Stories constantly morphed and changed over time, and the Bible is a collection of these. This is why it has the nearly identical flood story from Gilgamesh, and why Jesus has the same characteristics as Dionysus, Osiris, Horus, Mithra, and Krishna. The contradictions and immorality in the stories are not evidence that God is flawed or evil, but rather that humans invented him, just like the thousands of other gods that we used to but no longer believe in., i'm going to go with option 2 (until someone can stretch this out further) here's a website I've found that has more to this than i do danielmiessler.com/essays/bible_fiction/#logic

+holdemstacy1 Throughout history it has been written and rewritten so many times. Its written by flawed humans who interpret god differently. Everybody does. Religion is totally subjective. So my statements are true. You can try to deny it or whatever or try to question my credibility but you cannot deny. As it was not written by god.

Wonderfully said. Amen.

+Infected GayAsshole Jesus was a Jew, so you agree that he was an asshole just like you are.

No. I'm here before he died o_O wtf.

I honestly can't believe what I'm seeing here. I feel like I'm on an even worse, ignorant version of Donald Trump's Twitter.

Thanks for proving my point, Sidney. ^

And women don't clean their vaginas? 😂 That's obvious.

Just so you know, 100 percent of the anti-gay comments on this thread are from ONE troll in Australia. He has literally hundreds of accounts. Pathetic, right? Even after losing the gay marriage issue, here's still here and has been trolling here since 2008

^Same *****​

Yes, I've reported your hateful, bigoted speech like 10 times!

Jonathan Subritzky Well, what is a church then? In the Bible it says that shaving your beard and cutting your hair is forbidden, yet I see a lot of people doing exactly this before they go to church.

Jonathan Subritzky Why is it no longer applicable? It is the word of god, isn't it? Are you saying that humans stand above the word of god and have the power to make his laws no longer applicable? Lets move on the to the new testament though: "For if a woman does not cover her head, let her also have her hair cut off" - Corinthians 11:6 How often do you run around and cut women's hair if you see that they don't wear a veil?

No, what a shame. Obviously the church is losing its people and now is trying to be more popular...

well no actually... like Steve Jones said I haven't posted here in a long time. I kinda hoped that by now your dog would be dead and the AIDS in your veins would have sniffed out what little life remains.

You live in wonderland.

Clearly you don't understand equal rights.

Y2Kr4SHM4N I understand equal rights. Do u? When someone who expresses themselves are told "to go seek help" I find it hypocritical and it angers me. I understand equal rights more than u do buddy. What he said wasnt disrespectful.

You understand equal rights? Clearly you don't.

Being a bigot does make you less of a person. It also gets you fired. Just ask Phil Robertson who got fired from Duck Dynasty.

Mary Loon Yes, we all appreciate the "Christians" who do not take their holy book seriously. Without you Christianity would be just as bad as Islam. Why not just ignore the whole thing while you're at it though. I don't get it.

Maybe these Christians are only Christian because they never heard of deism?

Mary Loon We are in the same boat. You can be as open-minded to other people as possible, but people will still try to tell you that your beliefs are wrong. It's a funny world.

davewta Why? At this moment, Sitara has Luke 10:27 as the pic, which seems fitting for this conversation. It is one of the most important parts of Jesus' teachings, written within the parable of the Good Samaritan and seems to be one thing that most Christians forget when they attack other human beings.

She's a dumb puppet who gets told what to say and what agendas to push, you must be a complete hopeless sheep to be asking for her help 😂

Luake XBL 😂 (I really hope that was sarcasm)

It's HER SHOW. No one forced him to appear. Plus she wasn't hostile, he was. Hell that old coot couldn't even give her one logical reason why she shouldn't be allowed to marry.

***** Yes it is her show, and no he wasn't forced, per say, but think of what people would say if he hadn't gone on. They would immediately start making accusations, about his prejudice, saying that he wouldn't go on because she is a lesbian. How was he hostile, all he said was his opinion, and that they had a respectful disagreement, she was the one throwing low-blows (I just hope some day it's not called a contract etc...). Also if he mentioned anything about Christianity, he would be attacked (trust me I know), so no he couldn't give her a reason.

Cartier1288 Correct, its wasn't his show and he wasn't forced to appear. He choose to go on there and answer questions. DUH! You are also correct, he couldn't give one LOGICAL reason why Ellen shouldn't be treated equally....because there isn't one. He was hostile by forcing his views into laws that would treat her unequally. Talk about being hostile.

***** I was talking about during the show, not in general, he went in there and was as polite as possible, but she took that as an opportunity to attack. Also as I said, he wasn't physically forced, but he was politically and emotionally forced to to go there. (Saying duh doesn't lessen my answer in anyway; I gave a reason, you didn't). You see, now you are treating Christians as unequal, by saying that nothing they say is in anyway logical or correct, so what you are doing is completely counter-intuitive; if you want equal treatment then be an example. Again, I was not speaking generally, I was talking about the show in hand. But I do agree, it is hostile and unnecessary to take away someones right for no true crime, but he did not go in there and start talking smack about gay people, he went and left her show in a respectful manner, she stayed hostile though. Now if you would like to reply: please support your own statements, otherwise it's pointless, because you forever will have no influence on anyone's opinion.

Cartier1288 He should be polite after all, he was a guest ON HER SHOW. She didn't attack him, stop with the hysterics and lies. He wanted to force his views into laws by supporting a constitutional amendment. That is the ultimate hostility towards someone. If he cannot stand to answer a question, than THANK GOD he wasn't elected President. I doubt he could handle people asking him questions 24/7. Oh and sweetie, I'm not here to change anyone's opinion, I'm here to counter all the lies and bullshit people like you throw. If you don't like it, then by all means, get the fuck out.

Oh it's from the nydailynews! It MUST be true!

1. Research designed to prove that gays and lesbians are "born that way" has come up empty - there is no scientific evidence that being gay or lesbian is genetically determined” Matthew Brelis, "The Fading 'Gay Gene,'" The Boston Globe, March 20, 2002, p. C1

Monica Bobeck matthew brelis is nothing more than a biased moron

Nice load of crap there Heterophobia doesn't exist

atheistsrnumber1 As doesn't homophobia, and so called "bigotry." Those are just funny sounding buzzwords of the loony left.

That would be true except one thing, its been proven that they exist

atheistsrnumber1 As does heterophobia, and gay/atheist bigotry, it's been proven that they exist - you're the living proof.

No fear whatsoever of heterosexuality, nor do I have bigotry

buttboy berg too bad she wasnt made gay or you might have something

she did this because to not support gay marriage is bigoted and hateful. she was exposing McCain's hypocrisy.

Veronica Fauxton I don't think you know the definition of bigoted. McCain was not being hateful. Just because you disagree with someone's lifestyle doesn't mean you hate them. I don't support gay marriage but I do have a lot of gay and bi friends whom I love.

I don't support 3 people getting married or polyamory . I'm I hateful and a bigot? NO You point is absurd. Just because you don't agree with something doesn't mean you hate it. NICE TRY

Inora Faolan Either you believe in equal rights, or you don't. You and McCain don't.

It's always good to have a heated discussion about EVERYTHING that's controversial because it keeps people talking about issues that are affecting others around us. Gay marriage is one of the most discussed controversies of our time. It will never stop being talked about until it is legal in all fifty states, nor should it be. Love is love, regardless of the genders it's shared between. How would you feel if someone said you can't be apart of something you wanted to do because of your hair color? Talking about topics like this is the only way that we're ever going to see some change. It should never be called a contract, that's just insulting. It is a marriage between two people. I understand when people have issues about topics like this and abortion but we're in the 21st century, let's get with the times. We're trying to move past all of the hurt and segregation of earlier generations and by moving forward with legalizing gay marriage, our country will only be stronger.

Funny how, when people know they don't have a good argument, they delete their threads and start new ones that we can't reply to. Last night, she was screaming in all caps, an hour or two later has this "loving, peaceful" comment to condemn other human beings, rather than realize how hypocritical it is to judge others. I posted two links that show how marriage has evolved over the centuries, but she refuses to even acknowledge their existence. This shows that she is ignorant by choice, has no intention of taking her fingers out of her ears while screaming "lalala, I can't hear you!!!" as anyone speaks in a reasonable manner. It will just be more "God intended, God wants, God says" even though what she claims was never in her holy book and she is the one twisting the words. It doesn't matter if God exists or not, it doesn't matter if you or I or she believes in or doesn't believe in a deity of any type. What matters is that homosexuals are human beings and under the laws and Constitution of the US, we all are created equal and have the same rights. And the laws are changing to reflect that. People like this woman will just have to suck it up and quit whining about it. end rant.. sorry to hijack your reply to her.. my morning coffee just kicked in. ;)

TheLightsaber001 learn to use the caps lock correctly what you are doing is pushing your beliefs on others

TheLightsaber001 So you aren't judging their evilness, just pointing it out and telling them not to be who they were born to be.. and you do not see the silliness of that statement? What do you not get about this next statement? You CANNOT force your beliefs on other people. You CANNOT, period. When you try to, you make yourself look like a hypocritical jerk. Unless that is how you enjoy going through life, you may want to back off of judging others, telling them how to live and just worry about your own soul.

TheLightsaber001 wow the guy who cant even use his own brain to use the caps lock correctly wants us to use ours its not a choice to be gay

TheLightsaber001 ignorant assholes who cant use the caps lock correctly disgust me

that's because Obama wasn't a bigot or anti-equal rights. It's only tough if you're close minded.

nylotus Oh the irony . . .

Lmao typical liberal response

That's isnt fair. Ellen is gay and gay marriage is important to her. Obama wasnt against that but he was. Interviews on Republican channels with Obama was probably hard hitting as well, while trump can just say; PUERTO..... RICO. And they will clap for the guy.

aperson22222..EXACTLY... annoying ass-kissing is what Ellen does with guests she favors on her show...Why ppl actually waste their time on her fluff (or similar Hollywood tv 💩 like “Keeping up with the Kardashians”) is mind boggling..🙄🤦‍♂️👎

exactly.

No one is asking you to have a relationship with anyone, other than who you are attracted to. Please feel free to live your life the way you choose. And allow others to do the same. Thanks.

one man and one woman would fit brother and sister so you support incest

***** "traditional" is simply a term that some want to use for saying the way they believe is the best and only way. They will not accept the real history of marriage and the fact that it has evolved and we can *see* it evolving in the past few generations. In the 50s, divorce was still a very hushed up act, not many people were getting divorced and if they did, it was for extreme reasons. Many of those people lived together in misery because they said "until death do us part." In less than 20 years, divorce started becoming more and more common. In the 70s, it seems like everyone suddenly decided that divorce wasn't taboo and they got out of those miserable marriages pretty fast. Many older couples still stuck together out of duty. Now? 40 more years later, a year long marriage in the celebrity world seems like a lifetime. People take bets on how short marriages will last. Three or four divorces in 10 years? meh, maybe the next one will work out. But hey, can't have the gays marrying, they will ruin marriage!

Karol Palazej yeah ...and our society morale is continuing to spiral

Cynthia P what you said is not what the lgbt club wants. they want to change the rules not what you said... "live and let live" thats opposite of what they are doing and you make no sense.

You’d be happy to return six years later

JESUS IS LORD!! REPENT OF ALL YOUR SINS & TRUST IN JESUS CHRIST TO SAVE U FROM HELL & DEATH!!

You can't make someone gay you dumbass, they're born that way. I hope you've educated yourself in the last 7 years and are no longer homophobic

Mikey, believe in Yourself, not in God, because God does not exist, Humans made it up so they can use it as an excuse, to Hate, and Kill using it :)

***** You're a ridiculous excuse for a human being.

***** You're a deluded idiot, that's wh at you are. If you have to believe in a talking dead guy in the clouds to be able to sleep at night, then be my guest. But don't spread your religious bullshit.

I have no hatred for things that do not exist, however, i do hate religious zealots such as yourself.

This comment chain is exactly what I'm talking about. You have Christians who only try to spread their word without meaning any harm to others, and then you have one who say that gays and other religions are scum. And with Atheists, you have ones who peacefully try to respect peoples beliefs and calmly ignore religion, then you have the ones who attack religious people calling them stupid and childish. Why can't you all just grow up and respect each others opinions and stop trying to find new subjects to argue on?

• BRITISH JOURNAL OF PSYCHIATRY (2004), 185, 479 - 485 Results Of the 1285 gay, lesbian and bisexual respondents who took part, 556 (43%) had mental disorder as defined by the revised Clinical Interview Schedule (CIS - R). Out of the whole sample, 361 (31%) had attempted suicide. Conclusions Gay, lesbian and bisexual men and women have high levels of mental disorder

Bigots have "mental disorder"s.

not true at all why do you state that clear lie?

Sir Walter Really i am not a pedophile wtf did you get that info from?

Hypocrite.

Ellen and her tribe are very insecure. They have vivid and terrifying nightmares.

Alex Kije lol -BS

Tammra. God is more powerful than Ellen.

Ellen is NOT a very power ful lady ! ! Good grief people ! Get a Bible and start reading it .....a wake up call to all you people who live in darkness!

Ellen is powerful? how? nobody even likes her.

Keirah Johnston there are better pieces of fiction out there...

did u just assume her gender?

Elle is on the telle

+supersubes - With only a 67% credible rating (very low for the industry), you can have her.

Jerry Krause How sweet.

Arkanis Bawlz boiiiii Hillary racist?! 😂😂😂😂 okay trump isn't

WHY?

1, but i think this test isnt for me

polkadotbox1 1), but I would not select any partner for her. I would trust her enough to let her do that herself.

If she wanted YOUR advice, which of the 3 candidates would you wish she selected? You are trying not to answer, aren't you? Thought so!

polkadotbox1 I did answer though - the first one.

+polkadotbox1 - Speaking of 3's, R President + R Senate + R Representatives = Good-bye Same-Sex Marriage.

It is a different thing. And that thing is called sin. And those who live that way and support this sort of thing are going to hell.

@@marcelventer i believe magical fruit is a metaphor for sex. You cant take bible literally if you want it to make at least some sense

Mina Yoroi So the Bible was made to be freely cherry picked?

That's not what I was trying to say but I think you can take something from every book whether it's good or bad and whether you agree/believe in what is written in it or not. I'm speaking generally right now from an atheist-reading-the-bible point of view. I don't think it was meant to be cherry picked but neither do I care tbh

Mina Yoroi Shrimp is considered a sin. Should we ban shrimp because the Bible says so? The government is separate from the Bible. Marriage is a legal status, not a Bible term anymore.

JR Ewing I'm gay and like most of my gay friends I was also molested as a boy. You must have been very small when you were abused because you don't remember it or alternatively it must have been an horrendous amount of child abuse you endured in order for you to block out the memories that turned you gay.

JR Ewing all the talk of shit and scat is making me hot. if you're free how about a quick gay hookup - my boyfriend and I are always looking for fresh bottoms. get in touch privately if you're interested.

And even years after this he fought against the repeal of don’t ask don’t tell in the Military. That was disgusting. Such a patriot right, but yeah lie about your marriage to all your brothers in arms while serving…

Only if you fix your grammar and spelling.
