Same Sex Marriages

Paper Summary:

This paper examines some of the arguments that are put forth by opponents of gay marriage and then presents counter arguments favoring the right to gay marriage. The paper maintains that denying homosexual couples the right to marry is discriminatory and makes them unequal citizens.

From the Paper:

"The great debate is whether same-sex marriages should be allowed. Some states are considering passing laws outlawing same-sex marriages claiming they are immoral. Opponents of same sex marriages claim gays marriages should be outlawed because gays are religiously immoral, more promiscuous, and anti traditional family. Gays, however, have the same right to marriage as all other citizens, marriage is not only for the religious, many agnostics, and atheists marry. Gays should be allowed to marry, because they certainly can do no worst than heterosexuals regarding promiscuity; there is no place for religion in our laws; and because outlawing gay marriages on religious beliefs is unconstitutional."
