Eagle takes his ball and goes home

Well Beagles you have seemed like such a reasonable person lately, not wanting to get involved in Crimea and deciding that we hippies weren’t actually a commie front organization. But I have to wonder, about your giving up marriage for everybody to keep gays from having marriage.

I don’t agree with, but I can see where the religious don’t want gay marriage, because they think gays are all sinners, well some of the more liberal of this crowd will allow gays as long as they don’t do any of that gay stuff. And it didn’t become a sacrament until the middle ages, and I believe a marriage between a Catholic and a non-Catholic was considered just as bad as gay marriage, until, I don’t know, maybe a couple hundred years ago. Anyway I don’t think there is anything in deism that addresses the issue of gay marriage.

So I guess marriage is all in the hands of the state, and I thought your ilk didn’t like The State telling people what they can and can’t do. But we know how that works, you hate it when the state says gays can marry, but you like it when the state says they can’t.

Well what are the benefits of marriage? Surely you thought they were beneficial enough to enter into the institution, but now you are willing to give that all up just because gays can have the same benefits. I used to have this vision where God, who looks a lot like Willie Nelson, doncha think, gets tired of all that original sin and decides what the hell, you guys may be assholes, but you’re My assholes, I’m letting everybody into heaven, let’s go. And somewhere in that ascending host there are some clowns who are saying, “Even the McGillcuddies? You’re letting them into heaven, well then I don’t want to go.”

Crazy Man crazy. I think one of the big benefits of marriage is that you share your stuff. It would be kind of bad for you and the hypothetical if you had His and Hers on every piece of furniture or whatever, and whenever one of you got pissed, you could just take your stuff and go, and leave the other living in half a house. It would make raising children a lot more difficult, and yet you are willing to toss that into the dumpster rather than let Adam and Steve walk down the aisle? Crazy man crazy. Gee I wonder why nobody takes you seriously.

I’d do more research on that Hegel, but you know I can’t even say the guy’s name without bursting into yawns. But I believe the whole philosophical vogue at the time, was what are we doing, where are we going? If evolution wasn’t accepted yet, the ideas were around, and I guess they thought the idea is where is Man going. Well I quite agree with you, nobody knows, nobody can tell, too much shit going on. Every now and then you see some ‘futurist,’ on a panel show, and what the hell, why not just have a psychic, why not just have a roulette table?
