Gay marriage is not a human rights issue
A human right is defined as "an inalienable fundamental right, to which a person is inherently entitled simply because she or he is a human being."
The first round will simply be for acceptance and any definitions.
Resolved: Gay marriage should be legalized.
The pope should bless a gay marriage.
Pope Benedict XVI should publicly recant his current views about homosexuality and bless a gay marriage in order to demonstrate his sincerity. While this idea may seem silly and even absurd to some, the benefits of such an event simply cannot be overstated.

This event would almost certainly ensure that gay individuals would get bullied and mistreated less as the views of Catholics slowly ev...

Gay Marriage should be legal
I know I debated this recently (like, yesterday), but it was really light and barely touched on the complexity and depth of the issue, so I decided that I wanted to do it again.

You tell me what is wrong with my case. We debate. Clash happens (ideally). Round 4 will be for closing arguments. Some ground...

Gay marriage should not be banned
I take the affirmative side of the topic and will give a brief summary for my reasons in support of my case. First I will define key terms: Gay: To be happy or another way of saying homosexual (in this case, it refers to homosexuality of course) Marriage: Union of individuals that creates kinship. Kinship: (To give a brief meaning) Relationship. I as well as many other people in the world are pro gay marriage. There are those who dispute it and say it is "immoral", though of cour...
