i think homosexuals can be together, just not married.
and that is a religious view. it has nothing to do with committed partners of any sexual orientation getting adequate and equal rights under the law.

No, it wasn't here is my post from the previous thread:

'Marriage' or the union of two beings in a monogamous relationship has been around LONG before organized religion.

Cave paintings(yes, cave paintings) have depicted 'marriage' in tribal organizations.

And Indians (or Native Americans if you prefer) were marrying (both gay and straight I will add) hundreds of years before Christianity was introduced to them.

Marriage predates religion; and polytheism predates monotheism, so I don't think you can say that a monotheistic religion 'started' marriage.

That is exactly what it is doing. The right to marry is a basic human right, proposition 8 takes that right away.

Marriage came from nature, there are many sepcies that mate with one partner for their entire lives.

YOU DO HAVE THE RIGHT TO MARRY. It is a basic human right, Im not talking about the constitution, Im talking about basic human rights. Marriage is not a religious thing. You can be married by a judge, how is that religious?

MARRIAGE CAME FROM NATURE, there is clearly no arguing with you, keep hiding behind the bible, your arguments become less and less rational.
