    You claimed both of those things in post #372.

    Nope, nothing about a requirement of procreation in post 372. your perception is altered by your ideology.

    When someone says "procreation has nothing to do with who can marry" and you reply "not according to the UN" that's what you are arguing. Cut the BS. You're arguments are only getting worse.

    ???? There is a grand canyon between procreation having nothing to do with who can marry and procreation or the ability being required for marriage. It's a classification of couples. Not because all heterosexual couples procreate but instead because ONLY heterosexual couples procreate.

    You are the one who brought up the term requirement. The argument put in front of you was that procreation has nothing to do with who can marry. You claimed the UN does argue that procreation has something to do with who can marry in post 372. So where does the UN say that?

    Rahl used the phrase "have to be able to procreate to marry" and has used "requirement" repeatedly in the past

    - - - Updated - - -

    Biological fact, that usually only homosexuals are in denial of.

    Rahl said exactly this: "procreation has nothing to do with who can marry." And you responded by saying the UN disagrees. Prove it, or take it back.

    It requirees an acceptance of the fact that only a couple made up of a man and a woman has the potential of procreation. A fact denied here.

    your argument is invalid without a requirement.



    nope. it's patently false. you don't need to be a "heterosexual couple" to procreate. you don't even need to be heterosexual to procreate. you don't even need to have sex to procreate.

    then you have no argument.

    citing outdated court decisions does not help you. that's why you keep losing in federal court.

    Only a couples made up of "men and women" have a right to "found a family" because only men and women can procreate..

    That reply is not showing me where the UN says that procreation has something to do with who can marry.

    nowhere does any limitation or stipulation exist, nor does that have anything to do with who can marry.

    This just silly.

    Bad last few days for you though, Dixon- Delaware just became the 11th state to allow same sex marriage. Man, that must be tough for you to hear.
