The reason these people were never allowed to marry is the same reason that we don't allow twelve-year-olds to marry, they are not mature enough. Marriage involves emotional depth and a range of emotions that gays and lesbians are not capable of feeling, just as a deaf person cannot understand what a symphony is. They are adults chronologically, but emotionally they are stuck at 6th or 7th grade level and never go beyond that in their narcissism and obsession with sex. The proper response is not hate but pity. Who knows why they never grew up, or why they never learned to consider other people's feelings?

So now we should be all concerned with little bigot`s feelings? Right after he and his palls were just done bugging us all about how feelings must not be taken into account in this issue.
After all, how selfish of the gays, being happy and celebrating their love in spite of all the conservative tears. Won`t somebody think of conservatives!?
So, following your logic, you shouldn´t be allowed to marry due to your immaturity(if you cared to specify what maturity should be and why homosexuals don´t meet those criteria). Besides, if they are so immature, why are they allowed to marry a person of the opposite sex they don´t feel attracted?
Then why were you allowed to marry?
Deaf people like Ludwig von Beethoven? Who wrote just under half of his symphonies while deaf? And was still a conductor despite that limitation?
And turning that logic around, does this mean Crazy PedoDave and those like him can't marry on the grounds they can't get their minds past sex?

Beethoven, motherfucker.
Bonus: George & Brad Takei (Uncle George and Uncle Brad are fucking adorable !). Elton John and David Furnish. Neil Patrick Harris and David Burka. All long term relationships, all happily married.
Go fuck yourself.

You've never known a gay person, have you?
why they never learned to consider other people's feelings?
Yes, the ONLY reason they want to get married is just to piss you fundies off. You really need to get over this butthurt you're feeling.
bad analogy. orchestral music can be analyzed and understood from the sheet music alone, some of Bach's more elaborate works have been credibly argued to have been intended for that more than for being performed by any particular instrument, and even actual musical performances can be perceived by the deaf. i believe close physical contact with a loudspeaker is often involved.
worse analogy, because LGBT people have every bit as full and mature an emotional range as any other adult. why wouldn't they? evidence and citation, please.
and, pre-posting edit: i can't believe i forgot about Beethoven until i started reading the other comments. yeah, him, definitely.
Says the man obsessing over sexuality as if it truly means anything. If you'd have matured sufficiently you'd have come to realise that homosexuality is no big deal and have used your reasoning to determine that homosexuality is innate, uncontrollable, and harmless, therefore preventing them from equality is wrong. If mental maturity was a factor in deciding who should be allowed to marry, then many adults would be prohibited from marriage, and you would probably be included.
"Who knows why they never grew up, or why they never learned to consider other people's feelings?"
Not everyone experiments when they're young, and of those that do, not all decide that they're actually attracted to the opposite sex. This isn't a sign of immaturity, and as a homosexual gets older they are likely to come to terms with themselves, as you'd expect from someone who has developed the critical thinking skills necessary to understand why they are gay and what it actually means. It's this ability to make calm, reasoned thoughts that has more to do with maturity, not sexuality.
Also, why how do they not consider other people's feelings? Because they don't care about the offended nature of homophobes when they demand equality? Tough. Calls for equal rights don't infringe upon your personal space or rights in any way, the mental trauma is caused by your own immature outlook and expectation to have your views mollycoddled by society as some kind of obvious truth. If you weren't concerned with self-pity you'd be able to understand how others feel, which is a key part of empathy. Therefore, I find it ironic that anyone can question others about their consideration of others' feelings when they are incapable of doing it themselves.
"Gays and lesbians are immature"...
Hey idiot, they're not only mature, but their more mature than YOU!
Yeah, there's a lot of emotional maturity in your post.
If you didn't see it, that was sarcasm.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
