Opinions on Same-Sex relationships for a Persuasive Speech Assignment?

Basically, I'm writing a Persuasive speech for Speech class, and I was thinking for 2 of my database sources I could use some opinions from you people of Debate.org, with or against the idea of Gays, and Gay marriage. I think it would be a cool and creative idea to cite you in my speech. So any opinions are appreciated. Thanks....

America is NOT obese.

CierraNicole
Chaotic_Neutral

Everybody says that America is a country full of obese slobs, correct? I don't believe that to be true. I walk down the street every day, and through my school every day, and I hardly see any overweight people at all.

Splitting of the USA into two countries

Cowboy0108
moofect

I believe that everything from GA to Texas should break away including Oklahoma and everything up to Kentucky. This would be called Dixie. I believe that I should be the Commander of Dixie. We will assume that a peace treaty between Dixie and the Yankees is in effect. (War betweeen the nations is not an issue that I would like to be included.) These are my plans: I, commander of Dixie, would be beneficial to the current southern states of America. We will assume that there is a peace treaty...

Welcome!

I have the burden to prove two points:

1-that Genesis 2 is nothing but the continuation of the account of the creation mentioned in Genesis 1, and therefore it is not a new account of the same events.

2-That Genesis 2 does not contradict Genesis 1 if we understand both correctly.
