Manu Ginobli supports gay marriage

[ezau]

Are you going to get down on one knee when you do it?

[ezau]

Is this the reason why RJ gets a lot of his points from Manu's passes? When RJ reads this, he's gonna sign for free.

[lotr1trekkie]

Point of order: In "Birdcage" the son had already established his sexual iden y before his parents split. Who the cares about Manu's opinion? He just had twins the heterosexual way. If sometime awful happened, I doubt he would want his boys raised by two men or women. Deal with it.

[kaji157]

I would say that there is no evidence that have gay parents have a major percentage of gay (adopted) sons.
While sexual abuse has a very high rate to turn a person into sexual, and that happens a lot more in heterosexual enviroments.
Just giving ideas on how to think about this.

I think as everything there should be some time before reality hits on anyones door. Holland was the first country to introduce such rights, and there are not, as of today, enough evidence to talk with knowladge about this matters, as children adopted by the first gay´s couples would be around 10 years old as of now.

[senorglory]

do you think interracial couples ought to avoid having kids, too? If so, i should come kick your ass.

lol!

[senorglory]

yeah it would be an interesting study to see if kids of gay couples disproportionally end up being gay as well.

dude... there's been billions, if not trillions, of comprehensive peer-reviewed statistical studies already completed and published on this very topic.

i have no citation, i'm too lazy to mouse over to the google toolbar and type in the two are three words it would take for me to pull up a citation, or the abstract of one of these studies, or a link to wikipedia page, or some such... a laziness, I assume, you can empathize with.

but forget all that gay-marriage-stuff. you ever hear about the San Antonio Spurs? i'm a big fan.

[Budkin]

Good for Manu! One more reason to like the guy!

[ploto]

You do realize that gay people have kids all the time.

nobody's perfect

Correct. Sodomy is an abomination to God and is condemned in Sacred Scripture.

To support something that deserves death and eternal damnation, well, then you are either stupid , or you are a coward who won't defend the Divine and natural laws. Instead, you help others who are easily tempted to become minions of Satan.

So, Manu Ginobili, which are you -- stupid or a coward?

BTW, Mr. Ginobili, being Argentinian, odds are you are Catholic. If true, then you go against the Church and join millions of others who deny the doctrines of the Church founded by Jesus Christ in 33 A.D.

Manu is not Catholic.

You must have studied a different Jesus than I have.

You're late.

Ginobili has said publicly he doesn't believe in religion, and I'm fairly sure he doesn't give a rats ass what CaptainLate in Spurstalk thinks about that.

[SOMA Spur]

Had to chime in on this one...

Love Spurstalk - great spurs info, but the constant phobia by some of its posters always came off as disgusting and frankly a little sad.

Glad to see Manu speak out in support of basic human rights and equality. Its also very refreshing to see Spurstalk posters showing up and doing the same. Thats what I call raising the bar.

[tmtcsc]

I love Manu as a basketball player and for what he has done for this city. But I couldn't care less about his views on gay marriage or about his spiritual beliefs or lack there of.

Just win baby. Put the ball in the hole.

i agree, i dont want to get too into this but if you believe in God you believe the whole scripture you dont take pieces of it and make a customized religion aka " religion" and its gotten to the point that if you believe in what the bible says your a old fashion moron, or "primitive", so just like people demand respect for gay marriage, you guys show some respect for Christian beliefs. thats all i ask now can we get back to basketball!!!!!!!

Sodomy is a sin. Christ died for your sins. So that you didnt have to sacrifice animals like the isrealites.

[silverblk mystix]

christianity - the belief that a cosmic jewish zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a woman who was created from a man's rib was convinced by a talking snake to eat an apple from a magical tree.. yeah, that makes perfect sense.

You believe the entire Bible as written?

[spursfan1000]

He's an advocate of the game of basketball, not any particular group's rights. Whether you agree with Manu's views or not, I will never understand why people feel the need to get caught up in this .

This.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Sorry you disagree with me Mr. Body.

But until I see proof otherwise I will assume the kid will have more chance to be gay than straight due to living with a gay couple in his/her early years. I cannot support that. And I can see Manu stopped short of supporting it as well.

cheers

It's pretty clear you don't know any gay people then, nor do you have a ing clue what you are talking about.

Most people who are gay don't choose to be, they just are. It is genetic, not cultural. The kind of ignorance you display in your post is disturbing.

Why do you Bible thumpers have to lie so ing much? sexuality and sodomy are not "unnatural" - in fact they are behaviours found throughout the animal kingdom in all kinds of species, and generally featuring in 2-10% of the population. How then can it be "unnatural"? Don't let the evidence get in the way of your bull propaganda though.

Religious debate probably belongs in the Political forum rather than here, but just FYI Manu isn't Catholic and doesn't believe in God

[TheSullyMonster]

You don't study history much, do you?

Or the Bible, for that matter.

Hint: People have been cutting books in and out for millennia.

so just like people demand respect for gay marriage, you guys show some respect for Christian beliefs.

Sure. Leave the secular world(and it's laws) alone, and nobody will bother you in church. Sound fair?

[Blackjack]

Gay marriage support turned into a theology discussion .... weird, and totally unexpected.

#1 Poster out (but not of the closet).
