gay marriage, as granted by the state, was legal and indeed common

until laws were made against it because of religion

Gays aren't a big problem in society. We should focus more on transvestites than gay people.

Drinking on Good Friday is insensitive to the people mourning the loss of Jesus Christ, how could you be so inconsiderate?
It is also a celebration where people drink to honour and remember Jesus Christ.

Maybe not for Jewish people like you. Drinking alcy and eating max brenner while we cry our hearts out, shame on you.
Mate... I will put money on you not having attended midnight mass today.

Don't laws such as "it's illegal for homosexuals to marry" originate in religious texts?
doesnt matter. you said "because it's completely nonsensical and backward". Completely meaning 100%. In context, 100% of all laws that come from religion are 'nonsensical and backward'.

I provided two counter-examples. Now even if those laws I said didn't come directly from the religious texts in which they originate, they're still the same so I'd think the point still stands...

(yes, i'm just being mean)

But those two counter-examples don't come from religion. They come from the social structure that surrounds that religion.
