Gay Marriage

Paper Summary:

This paper maintains that arguments presented in opposition of gay marriages are flawed and invalid. The author explains that religious arguments opposed to gay marriages are invalid because they violate the principle of separation of church and state and that the right to a gay marriage should be guaranteed because it is an issue of civil rights.

From the Paper:

"One of the central arguments against gay marriage is that it will have a negative affect on the institution of the family and adversely impact on the upbringing of children. Yet, there has been no proof of these claims and research has indicated that no significant difference has been identified between children brought up in family headed by a gay couple and a heterosexual family. Despite this there are still many people who have strong reservations about gay marriage and gay couples who rear children. The first question that arises in the research about gay marriage is why such avid opposition to the idea of gay marriage continues to exist, even for those who do not oppose basic rights for gay people."
