- 26 March 2013 -- Ryan Anderson, 31, of the Heritage Foundation holds his ground debating gay marriage with Piers Morgan on CNN live in front of a liberal audience. Mr Anderson sticks to the facts, remains calm and polite, and wins the day.
This young man in my opinion won the debate.
He is wrong in first sentence. If marriage is about children, then people that can't have children shouldn't be allowed to marry.
Agreed!!!🎉
@@goranmilic442 They are of the nature to beget children only that some circumstances prevent that. It doesn't put into question that man and woman procreate.
@@HendrickAlbina Is marriage about having children or not? Yes or no?
Am I the only one who thought this whole show was a setup to make this man look stupid even though he had some extremely valid points?
Could be that it was a setup... but his points being "valid"? Not really
He mentioned gay couples that do not have the same tax benefits as married couples could be helped by improving tax policy, not redefining marriage. I thought that was an extremely valid point.
George Waters I believe you consider that marriage is the union of a man and a woman. Right? How about men or women that can't reproduce? Can they still get married? If yes, what is the point of marriage? Love and Compromise between to people. So... gay marriage? Why not! Oh yeah... the invisible man in the sky!! That is the real problem!
chicagata I'm not really interested in getting drawn into a gay-marriage debate. My point is more how the show was bias. Piers Morgan should be fed to sharks
George Waters I imagined you have no interest in getting into a debate. Maybe because you have no way to defend your position. It's very christian of you, by the way, to suggest that PM should be fed to sharks.
Ryan Anderson is 31. He displays more emotional maturity than the host and his guest combined.
Ryan is just trying to telling the plain truth of what your mother and father already know.
You should ask your mother and/or father about the birds and the bees my friend.
Lyrics:
Let me tell ya 'bout the birds and the bees
And the flowers and the trees
And the moon up above
And a thing called 'Love'
Let me tell ya 'bout the stars in the sky
And a girl and a guy
And the way they could kiss
On a night like this
When I look into your big brown eyes
It's so very plain to see
That it's time you learned about the facts of life
Starting from A to Z
Let me tell ya 'bout the birds and the bees
And the flowers and the trees
And the moon up above
And a thing called 'Love'
(Yeah)
+bradyspace He is obviously religious which would mean he is unlikely to mature above the age of 15. He seems nice but his views are just dumb.
+bradyspace That's because his personal rights aren't being threatened. It's easy to be calm when you personally have nothing to lose.
No, they want super rights. We all have the right to vote and all men and woman have the right to get married. Civil unions and private contracts were free to everyone. Forcing so-called 'gay marriage" will inevitably be an attack on the Church which will never comply just like those bakers.
When Piers coudn't handle Ryan, he turned to the girl for help. And when the lady coudn't handle Ryan, she turned to the audience.🤣🤣🤣
@Ddot Norreh Stay in the path of our Creator. Blessings to you my friend.🙂
LIARS need support from each other. Seek purity of mind, soul and the spirit. The most HIGH MADE MAN FOR WOMEN TO CREATE YOURSELF. TO SEE THE MIRICLE OF LIFE THROUGH LOVE. DONT FOLLOW THE WICKEDNESS OF SHATON. BLESSINGS TO HUMANITY 💜
If you believe that why can't you let people do get married and have God correct them in their wrong? I truely believe that this whole gay marriage debate is stupid. I believe you all have fought so hard because your not sure. If you were sure you would shut up, sit down, and watch God.
@@1911beauty Marriage is a Christian ceremony performed before God in the joining of a male and female in which God joins together as 1. The question is, why do these non believers want to defile this Christian ceremony by degrading its values before God? God is not One we should make a mockery of!
@Ddot Norreh amen. He is of the devil. Twisting the Gospel to perpetuate his sinful lifestyle.
She lost the debate because she had to ask the crowd how they felt.
I completely agree. Ryan definitely presented himself better, explaining his arguments clearly, not allowing himself to be baited. Piers and Suze were condescending, they appealed to emotions, appealed to the crowd to shout him down, and were generally far less persuasive. Purely in terms of debating style and effectiveness, I think Ryan won the exchange.
Having said that, Ryan's arguments were flawed, he was deliberately evasive on crucial points, and he was there to make a speech, not engage in a conversation. I was not convinced by what he said, and don't agree with his position.
HBJ
HunchbackJack Good to see that even in disagreement, you can see the obvious problems with the supposed arguments mounted against Ryan. He was evasive, but I don't think he avoided the question of whether he opposed gay marriage as overtly as the presenter made it seem. Ryan's argument seemed to be that he agreed with whatever was made constitutional. However, I do get the feeling he had a bias, which he should simply have voiced. It's okay to have an opinion. What you do with that opinion is what counts in my books.
Ryan wants to ask the voters what they want (as long as the polls hold his opinion) What is the diff?
Mexighetti The problem with your point is that you have made an assumption that he only wants what voters want, if they want what he wants. This needs substantiation.
No. Ryan couldn't even say it straight that he was against gay marriage. If u r gonna stand for something, at least stand tall
Piers Morgan is being totally bias and attacking his guest.
Hasn't he always been like that. He is British. He shouldn't be there in the first place
He's annoying me piers Morgan
Tamara Bradshaw as always
Can You be a Gay Christian? Gay = Happy, right? Can u love God, your family, fellow man, pet animal and be happy -absolutely ! Does that mean some grotesque abominable physical expression of that "love", sorry no! If not God, then nature is telling us such physical contact is dangerous, debilitating and sometimes deadly, should we not listen at least to what nature is telling us? We all have urges we ought not to act on, but anyone can say *"yeh, but I was born that way!"* If deniers say we're just semi-evolved apes and survival is the greatest singular instinct of any creature, then what survival advantage is afforded a species by homosexual relationships? Should not such a gene if it exists, have been bred out over 100s of generations?
Hiding behind a colorful banner that proclaims "love" "commitment", "freedom" etc is a clever ploy but it belays the fact that homosexuality in many studies have shown its a promiscuous, debilitating and soul destroying lifestyle. And deluding oneself that it's all ok to ease the shame and guilt, is not going to change the outcome. Just read studies done by Pew institute and Bell and Weinberg, And proponents would be kidding urself to think anything has changes in a generation since AIDS. *If nature “thinks” that non-natural and casual liaisons are dangerous, shouldnt we at least, take
notice and even accept its verdict?* www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-45692551
If you can't see a clear winner to this argument then you have been blinded by emotion. Anderson was the only one speaking with logic and not emotion. I'm incredibly impressed at how he remained calm in a room full of Piers Morgan's wolves.
he was outnumbered but still does not make his argument valid ...think he might have become "emotional" if the situation were reversed and he was denied spousal rights and benefits?
What a serial of ambushes you managed so well, from start to the end. God bless soldier Ryan.
@@c3bhm Amen
Way to go Ryan! You kept your cool against two tyrannical self-projected individuals. Complete respect! It's obvious Piers Morgan didn't understand a word you said, but the rest of America did. This was a definite one-sided debate that was meant to make traditional marriage supporters, and those of us who ARE educated look ridiculous. Poor form on their part. Keep up the good work, Ryan!
Piers "logic" is like saying...
I love Black men so therefore I hate men who anything other than black.
WOW!!!
Many of these people don't give a care about children....
AND
Shouting doesn't make you right.
Listen to how she insults him.
She is absolutely SICKENING.
@@yourdailydoseofreality3219
WOW!
Very enlightening.
Thank you.
Ryan Anderson made the best arguments for marriage .
The world is mad. The whole house was against him. Gay people should produce a child and I will believe them
Ryan Anderson is a lot smarter than Piers Morgan, who only seems to go low without acknowledging Anderson's line of thinking
he thinks like a islamaphobe
+Paul Esmond
I think Piers Morgan is just debunking Anderson's line of logic at every turn ... yes it may seem rude to do that as mannerisms go but Anderson's line of logic is so fraud with inconsistencies and irrationality that the host can't help but point out his flaws ...
You're right.Just because it's your show you have the right to be rude.But does he have the right to be wrong?
Well,wisdom cmes when God is in us
@@88feji Indorect
I'm part of the LGBTQ community. However, I kept my mind clear to really hear what Anderson was saying.
As much as Suze Orman is right about her argument, what Anderson were trying to say is those in the LGBTQ community should be able to form a union, but not call it a marriage.
Since marriage was originally defined as a man and woman joining together, the LGBTQ community should create their own term/version of marriage.
I think Anderson wants to be respected as a union with a woman (marriage) versus along with all the different types of unions put in one category.
Oh well, it's 2019. And marriage is now two adults joining together, after Obama legalized gay/lesbian/etc marriage.
Mad respect to this gentleman for keeping his cool during this debate
Shut the fuck up.
why do people hate piers morgan, and give me an actuall reason dont just say he is a dick
he often interrupts people he disagrees with and he loves to tell them how wrong they are and refer to them as stupid. I honestly don't mind piers to much but he has obvious flaws
yeah that can be a bit annoyimg but thats no reason to hate him
His cool doesnt make him correct in his views. Judt because he s got a wife doesnt mean he s entitled to more rights.
The only one she called ignorant is the only wise in that forum.
The exact words to define this case! God be with you.
Edgar Milan SUZE YOU ARE IGNORANT OF A PLACE CALLED HELL!!!
@@lucillebonds4332 What a stupid, insane, horrible statement. How do you look yourself in the mirror?
@crazymiles14 You can keep your superstitious nonsense to yourself. You have no proof for anything you say, why would you believe anything without evidence of existence? Logic and reason are the only way to come to truth and religion has neither.
Religion is manmade. There is NO god that lives in the heavens. That is all created and crafted by primitive mankind.
What a generation... "this mob agrees with me, so we're right." Lord, help us.
Johnny Hauser as compared to religion "my fictional creature i believe in tells me its wrong, so i must believe him over facts"?
Define what is "factual" and present an argument that moral integrity involves factuality rather than deception.
I'll start:
Leviticus 19:11
You must not act deceptively or lie to one another.
Proverbs 1:7
The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge.
Romans 1:18-20
The wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth. For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse.
Johnny Hauser
so when are you going to start with facts, all i see there is religious bs
prove god exists, then you can claim those to be facts
I presented a basis for my worldview in which there are facts and I have a moral obligation to believe them. I'm not convinced by your usage of the word "facts" if your worldview can't account for them nor provide a reason to prefer them over falsehood.
Johnny Hauser
what you presented was your beliefs, and a fictional book, claiming they are facts
yet those of use with a working brain can tell they arent
Props to this guy for handling Piers and Suzi
Ryan Anderson we salute you for your brave stance on this issue. Way to go bro.!

Ryan showed intellectual brilliance and heroic charity in the midst of a mob of condescension. #respect
Yeah, but he didn't have any good arguments for his position. Just some Christian talking points about marriage.
To my Black and Colored Brothers;
"By law and official policy Gays have not been segregated in Schools, buses, restaurants, housing, voting rights etc.
Gays have been victims of individual attackers who are punishable for their crimes against gays.
Offenses against blacks were authorized by state action, state laws, and official policy.
It's very misleading to compare Gay rights to Civil Rights of black people.
The point is that Gays are already enjoying Government Protection through Laws that punishes those who attack gays.
On the other hand, back in the days the Government and the Laws were not protecting Blacks, but in fact such law and government actions became the basis for discriminating blacks.
So the LGBT's attempt at elevating the status of Gay causes to that of the Blacks civil rights causes is a dishonest and unethical tactic."
Any Black Person who support LGBT agenda of insulting blacks by equating Gay causes to black causes (Gay is the new black) is a BIG TRAITOR.
Ollie X He's referring to America. This is a travesty of justice, but it is irrelevant to his point.
***** So just because it happens in another part of the world it is irrelevant? Well I'm from UK so all the travesties of justice against blacks that happened in USA are irrelevant.
I think the biggest irony here is how it is mostly black countries (who have experiences awful abuses of human rights I'm not debating that) are the ones which are the most intolerant to others' rights.
Ollie X The video is talking about current policy in the US. It's irrelevant to his point - his point being policy in the US. Keep up!
Ollie X When the discussion is framed around US policy...yes, discussion about ills in other parts of the world is tangential.
***** , KC Burns Maybe, however OPs comment was a general critique of the comparison 'Any Black Person who support LGBT agenda of insulting blacks by equating Gay causes to black causes (Gay is the new black) is a BIG TRAITOR'. Although segregation happened 60 odd years ago how is something more than half of a century old more influential on current social issues and policies than discrimination happening now just in other countries? USA isn't a bubble, foreign affairs do affect it's policies.
The whole purpose of comparing homosexuality and race in terms of equality is to highlight how discrimination has manifested itself beforehand and how similar the justifications of these views are. Undermining it by saying 'who had it worse' trivialises equal rights as some stupid competition and whoever had the hardest time should be more entitled to equal rights than those who didn't.
I hate that Ryan keeps getting interrupted. And I hate that he ended the show because he could not fight back. Ryan was trying to be logical and the other 2 were using the crowd to make Ryan feel week. They could not have a real debate because Ryan was always being overlapped or yelled at.
+LordJerryMan I hate interrupting journalists too, but Ryan didn't answer any question. He was Sarah Palining his way around them.
true, good point
because he's an idiot and was not making any sense and kept repeating himself
Emotional arguments lead down a road that never ends.
How about bring in Mormons who seek polygamy and ask Piers and Sally why their love does not count?
How about bring in Muslims who in the Qu'ran are allowed to marry underrage girls why they want to deprive them of their rights?
Or two first cousins who can't help but be madly in love, why they would be so heartless as to object to their happiness?
Total BS that should be transparent to any reasonable person. Logic>Emotion anyday.
Mormons don't practice polygamy, get facts straight if you are going to argue
Piers morgan asks a question then just interrupts to milk the answer he wants to hear, just shut piers and let him answer
I agree with with Ryan Anderson.
I don't, because his arguments can be refuted quite easily.
1) "Marriage" means the union of a man or a woman, by definition
If we agree that gay people should have the same rights as straight people, then we can change the definition of marriage to accommodate them. The meaning of words evolve over time; there's absolutely no reason to use semantics to deny people rights.
2) "Marriage" is an institution to foster the raising of children
If this were a legitimate reason to prevent gay people from the right to marriage, then people who were unable, unwilling, or inept at raising children would also be denied marriage. People who had children who needed caring for would be prevented from getting divorced.
This also assumes (although it's never stated) that any gay couple couldn't possibly be as nurturing to children as any straight couple - regardless of how loving the gay parents are or how abusive the straight parents.
3) "People should vote on this issue"
Actually, no. This is a human rights issue. Just as the Federal Government wouldn't permit any city, county or state to outlaw mixed-race marriages, so we shouldn't make the right to marriage a matter of local opinion. It is entirely appropriate that the Supreme Court rule on this issue.
HBJ
HunchbackJack Dude, I think he is simply trying to explain how he defines marriage. Like he said early on, he isn't against it. He simply views marriage as the union between man and woman so that a child can be raised and be taken cared for. He says that the issue is how people define marriage.
That is why he implied "people should vote on this issue". It is not on whether there should be gay marriage or not, but people (as a society) should agree on how marriage should be defined.
Sorry, not try to argue with you but I just think you misunderstood on what he was saying.
Mau Mauster I think Ryan is playing a shell game with words. He is implying that gay people shouldn't get married *because* marriage is between a man and a woman, by definition. He doesn't come out and say that, but the inference is clear, and understood by anyone who agrees with him.
The reason the word is so important to Christians is because they consider marriage to be an act of God, not of man. "What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate", etc. So they don't want the institution of marriage "sullied" by something they consider offensive to God.
But Christians like Ryan don't say that, because religious belief alone isn't a valid justification for denying people equal rights under the law. So he tries to pass it off as a question of semantics rather than a matter of human rights.
HBJ
It's not easy to be "the bad guy" because for that you need to have guts just like Ryan
Well done Ryan Anderson!!! To sit within such a mist and still remaining claim! You won, all Suzi did was pleading for emotional support, what a looser.
This man coherently argued common sense.
irene evanz please explain how it’s wrong ?????
@Sean Scambler I see that it’s been 2 months and this person still cannot tell you why same sex marriage is wrong. The reason is because it’s not wrong. I feel that straight people need to stay out of gay people’s bedrooms end of story.
RedSox exactly I’m always up too debate anything but the fact they can’t even defend there accusations speaks for its self. Thanks for the support though 😀👍
@Anonymous Babe Whatever you say anonymous bitch
This is an all-out ambush on Dr. Anderson, and he holds his ground well. Unfortunately, neither the host nor the guest hear what he is actually saying.
I think they hear what he's saying. They just don't totally agree with him.
No, they were not because they knew their arguments were essentially flawed and illogical, which is why they always resorted to emotional rhetoric. In the end, political correctness won the day. Homosexual marriage is predicated on a lie, and nothing good can ever come from a lie. It's already happening.
The only doctor is called ignorant. The irony.
What he's saying is bullshit.
Anderson was very impressive in this exchange. He walked into extremely hostile territory, and dominated the debate.

Ryan Anderson has done a great job, he's clear and logical.
Ryan Anderson is the opposite of logical.
He begins with his irrational religious beliefs to form an opinion and then works backward to concoct "secular" justifications for his sectarian inclinations.
Beginning with the irrational CANNOT lead to the logical.
@@Dr_JSH You are the opposite of logical. You commited an ad hominem fallacy when you said Anderson is illogical because he is religious. Even if being religious was wrong it still does not mean that he never has anything good to say.
FIFA GCH Religious beliefs should have NO SAY in court. Him bringing it up in this debate can be irritating. Since religion has no evidence at all. Also, this is the United States, you have religious freedom. He’s not disrespecting him for his religion. It just has no context or value for the debate. That could come off as selfish, but ayy.

Salnsd : God decided what is wrong
@Salnsd when was the last time you read it anyway. That is always the line of argument. From who decides right and wrong then you jump to which God then you jump to genocide. You forget that God dealt with the Israelutes the same way he dealt with any other nation when they sinned. I guess you have not even read Exodus to know that all that generation that left Egypt didn't make it to the promised land because of their sin of idolatry, murmuring etc just as the other nations did. And then you have never read that through one nation He was trying to bring a fallen race to a restored position of glory in the fulness of time. I wonder if 2 men or two women gave birth to you to support such an aberration of same sex marriage. There are irreducible minimum and it is a shame we all as a generation is eroding standards and can't even tell what is wrong and right. I am a biologists and even in all lower animals and plants the nature of order is Male female complementarity else you would not even be enjoying the trees and other pets we have
Salnsd That’s not nice, or tolerant. Also, where in the Bible does God condone all that stuff? The traditional interpretation is that He permitted that stuff at the time because of the moral decadence of the people but fully revealed Himself in Christ. Those Christian values ultimately lead to slavery being outlawed. Why is slavery wrong? You can’t make a coherent argument unless you believe in objective morality, a moral law. A moral law supposes that there’s a moral lawgiver, traditionally known as God. You can’t argue that slavery or all that other stuff is wrong without invoking God. The only other options are relative gibberish that make no logical sense
The bullying from piers is giving me anxiety.
😁😁😁😁🤝. He nags
The way she just casually dismisses and downplays the father and mother dynamic towards the end really stood out for me. Goes to show how she has to deny reality to make her argument.
Same-sex marriage is rooted in denial. This is why Obergefell was so poorly decided. It's a lie, and nothing good can come from a lie.
False. It shows how she simply needs to deny your false reality of hate, ignorance, & intolerance. #HateWillNotPrevail 🥰
Poor guy! In an audience full of opposition towards his view. I feel like he was the only one in there, and that didn't even stop him from being brave and voicing his opinion with reasonable arguments.i want to pat him on the back

My husband and I are now happily, legally, married with our adopted son :).

This 31 year old man is one of the bravest and smartest people defending the institution of marriage. Susie and Piers had to resource to emotions because they realised they could not win based on facts. This guy tore them up!
Do you not resource to emotions when deciding if you love someone? Do you not resource emotions when making financial decisions? Do you not resource emotions when you decide that killing, stealing, or rape is wrong? Obviously you do, as its part of being human. You know what's also part of being human? Being embarrassed and dishonest with ourselves about our emotions and how we feel, because of other emotions like fear.
Emotions and Rationality are BOTH part of what make us human beings.
Changing laws can not be based only on emotions. We have to take social science into consideration. Marriage is not just about "love", it is also about creating the building blocks of society and to secure the propagation of the human species. I believe in treating everyone with respect regardless of sexual orientation, but I don't think that we need to redefine marriage in order to do so.
walterygor
Yes, but what is so irrational about gay couples getting married? Its perfectly rational. They love each other, it helps build up our society, and it adds an economy boost. Marriage isn't free or cheap you know.
DarkOmicron
economy and financial issues are secondary items. The institution of marriage is above those topics.
The way to men or two women engage in sexual acts are irrational in themselves. It is against nature. It does not produce life.

Economics and social security have nothing to do with this issue. Ryan was exactly right that marriage is first and foremost to protect the rights of children.
It had everything to do with the issue. It was the main focus to us. The main issue was economic and federal rights as well as the right to get married. Which we now can, so we won the argument. YAY!!!!
This is not a debate. It's awfully one sided.
What a throwback... My opinion on this video has changed a lot since I made that comment.
@Benjamin J Park I probably thought it was one sided because the audience and both Piers and Suzie all seem to be on the same side. Probably because they are right.
I was a Christian 7 years ago and was definatelly caught up in a persecution complex like many others are.
I don't think Suzie explained herself very well, but it's pretty clear that the Ryan Anderson guy is just trying to impose a Christian ideology into laws, which is not how the legal system should work.

@@samiramarley I can't believe you just said that Samuel... Look at every empire or great City or dynasty that has ever been... What have they also come to Rome Egypt Greece Sparta Arcadia every single one of those what was its downfall? Sexual immorality and disease bought them to their knees. I mean just look at the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah? They were specifically completely destroyed because of homosexuality
@@bigcountrymountainman9740 The story of Sodom and Gomorrah is a fable. Moreover, homosexuality wasn't actually the reason they were destroyed. The exegesis holding the Sodom and Gomorrah fable as an indictment of homosexuality lacks credibility among contemporary theologians. The fable is about a group of cities being destroyed due to a lack of charity.
As for your post hoc rationalization for why "every great City or dynasty that has ever been" collapsed, your assessment is completely devoid of historical evidence. In most cases, the "collapse" of those polities was due to invasion or ethnic division, not disease. In fact, there are multiple societies with historical and literary references to homosexuality going back centuries that are still very much extant and thriving (China, Britain, and Persia/Iran to name a few).
@@samiramarley I'm not trying to throw the who's smarter guy up but I have a master's in ancient history.
Scientists proved that Sodom and Gomorrah was destroyed by some type of fiery disaster after doing soil samples. And secondly the cities that I named that I said had failed due to homosexuality and disease is fact. Some of them were conquered and the reason they were conquered is because they were so deleted of economics and military mostly. Greece, Rome and Sparta ran rampet with disease due to sexual immorality. Alexander the great said "For if we succumb to the desires of our flesh we will surely fall" speaking at a trial against the senators and governor's concerning what he called boy lovers. Rome was overrun by pedophiles and Sparta was known for taking and taking the children of the lower class. The Ming dynasty almost died out in 1607 due to a disease that to this day has only been seen in China and after the Ming dynasty fell in 1644 and they ran the rest of the Ming people into the north of China the disease almost left overnight. And there are scrolls in China today that speak of the downfall of the Ming dynasty sure to lesbians. It was forbidden for men to lay together but not women. Syria and Persia were defeated and divided. They did not succumb to sexual immorality. The USA never got into the state that it's in today until we started acknowledging gays and lesbians in the transgender community and ever since Obama signed the bill for gay marriage and put a rainbow on the front of the White House this country has gotten worse ten times over. People today in America don't fear anything and that's scary.

@@88feji No, Piers Morgan is just rude and interrupts other's statements while providing no logic at all.
I just want to thank you for being so courageous in the midst of an atmosphere like this. I did see some heads nodding in agreement to your well articulated points.
Matrimony is the contractual union of a man with one or more women, primarily for the purpose of PROCREATION and child-rearing. In other words, “marriage” is simply a term given to the concept of human mating mores, as human being mating customs are far more complex than those of non-human animals. However, no matter the complexity of human marriage rites, rituals, and connubial customs, one can never deny the blatantly-obvious fact that “marriage” is essentially a word that we have given to mating conventions of the Homo sapiens species.
Therefore, it is simply nonsensical (and downright evil) to ascribe matrimony to homosexual unions!

Ryan Anderson does this so well. SO WELL. I'm so impressed. Great debate!
I'm part of the LGBTQ community. However, I kept my mind clear to really hear what Anderson was saying.
As much as Suze Orman is right about her argument, what Anderson were trying to say is those in the LGBTQ community should be able to form a union, but not call it a marriage.
Since marriage was originally defined as a man and woman joining together, the LGBTQ community should create their own term/version of marriage.
I think Anderson wants to be respected as a union with a woman (marriage) versus along with all the different types of unions put in one category.
Oh well, it's 2019. And marriage is now two adults joining together, after Obama legalized gay/lesbian/etc marriage.

Real Marriage is between Man And Women, not criticizing anyone
If we really are going by what "real" means, then I would have to say that marriage between a man and woman is complex, like a complex number, while marriage between a man and man or woman and woman is real.
Obviously this is a joke, but do you see how ridiculous it is to label something as "real" just because you say it is, yet others cannot do the same thing about what they think is real?
Noah Rosenblatt No I really don't, made my point unless your in a gay marriage relationship your self or you support it, good luck to you, because my Religion would do worse
***** Not always and made my point, I actually see alot of good relationships between Man and Women, I could use the Word REAL i'll I want btw, because its true
Bryan Wheeler A marriage concerns the two consenting adults who enter the union. Outside opinions are without any consequence. The same goes for ending an unwanted pregnancy; it's the woman's choice. YOU can deal with your own marriage and divorce; I'm sure you wouldn't want outside direction of YOUR private affairs? Don't like what total strangers decide for their own situation? Tough! None of your beeswax.
what about a trans woman and a man?? That's me.
He did great!! She lost when she called him “sweetheart”.
exactly
Piers almost nailed him in the beginning twice because he dodged two questions. Once by asking him if he favored a prisoners right to marry over a same sex couple and when he asked if elderly couples deserve the right to be married. Suzy ruined it by opening her mouth with her emotions and offending him.
@@redsox1935 He never dodged the questions.
Concerning the prisoners, he responded by citing the SCOTUS decision because he thinks it's based on the same reasoning he uses, namely the marriage as a union between a man and woman.
Concerning the elderly couples that can't procreate, he did say that procreation is a part of the issue and the broader issue is the union of a man and a woman based on their complementary differences.
Those are answers to the question. You may not agree with them, you may not find them satisfying, but he did answer.
Who is this guy Ryan? Such composure and understanding! Suze calls on the pro-gay audience for support and Ryan stays cool and continues to deliver. Ryan was on his own. He was surrounded and out numbered but delivered the most ferocious blows in the debate.

The hell was that? I actually wanted to hear the man's point, they kept interrupting.
because it was pointless and completely went against separation of church and state which is what this country has been for over many many years
When did this become a separation of church and state issue? As pointed out by Dr. Anderson, all of civilization (regardless of religion) recognized marriage as a union of man and woman before the year 2000. It is much more to do with common sense and biology.
Same-sex marriage has existed throughout history, there's plenty of evidence that shows this. Google "Same-Sex Marriage and the Construction of Family: An Historical Perspective" and read the first PDF, written by Richard Ante, for a brief look at the historical evidence.
Regardless of the historical or religious legitimacy of marriage, the moment marriage became part of law, it was separated from religion and made entirely civil. America was founded on the principles of separation of church and state, the term was coined by Thomas Jefferson himself. The First Amendment of the Constitution states: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof..." Marriage is a legal institution in American civil law, as such any religious definitions or connotations are rendered irrelevant. From a historical and social perspective, same-sex marriage has always existed. From an ethical and moral perspective, marriage equality for all and free access to marriage for all American citizens, should be a reality.
Stop bringing up religion. This has NOTHING to do with religion. One does not have to be a Christian, a Jew, a Muslim, a Buddhist, a Hindu, etc...to know that the marriage institution is just a reflection of human biology. Only through the sexual complimentary bond of male and female can a life be created. Marriage, regardless of any obscure propaganda you can find, represents the brick of society : the foundation of the family unit.
What is wrong by simply recognizing this fact of uniqueness and then building an institution that promotes this type of engagement for the betterment of society? What does two men shacking up have to do with bringing forth the next generation, and why in the world would the government care to get involved? If marriage is only about love and has nothing to do with children, then as Dr. Anderson says, why not make the throuple qualify for marriage? Why not let the Mormon's practice polygamy legally? What principle allows for same-sex marriage but denies other arrangements from being legally recognized, apart from sheer bias? Once you take something and distort the definition, it opens the door for all kinds of lunacy. So many questions arise from same-sex marriage, one needs to be extremely short-sighted not to recognize the consequences.
Look at a dictionary before the year 2000 and you will see that marriage by definition is the union of male and female. So based on the inception and understanding of what marriage actually is, there was NO inequality against the gay community. All gays were permitted to marry, but...they simply were not looking for marriage. Asking why two men should not allow to marry is like asking someone why they cannot draw a four sided triangle. Meaningless question.
Ethics and morals? I find it unethical that the LGBT community think they can bully society into altering the meaning of marriage and have business owners, who object based on conscience, be forced into providing services that participate in (by their judgment) immoral ceremonies.
"access to marriage for all American citizens, should be a reality."
You mean all American citizens should be able to decide for themselves what marriage means, and then force the government into legalizing it. To me marriage is just the bond between two people in a living arrangement. I want to marry my sister. Please grant me my "equality". Dumb.
Google "man marries dog in India". Let's let people marry their pets...

I watched this video, twice. Yeah, I know it's 2014 but there's no reason to fall into immorality. So much debate over for getting some paper stating two men/women are united. I don't care if somebody engages in homosexual activity but it's absurd to say it's completely normal. Faulty arguments from Suzie include that she appeals to emotions rather than logical reasoning, a very common fallacy, and as she sees she's clearly losing tries to look down on Ryan summoning a BIASED audience. C'mon, you can't deny that. And it's not about religion anyway. Regards
immorality? homosexualilty not completely normal!? I rest my case!
Bruno Ariel And what's wrong with appealing to emotion? That's ultimately at the root of everything that people do, have done and will do. Logic has it's place. And please explain what so immoral about homosexuality, and please don't quote Bible verses...Come with fact, not dogma. It's okay, I'll wait....
1Nbillion817 nothing, unless you're debating the effects of gay marriage for a child, or even the whole homosexuality thing. What's so moral about using the anus as a sex organ might be the question, which is never raised. What's so moral about bombarding the Americans with the gay lifestyle and impose it to the most vulnerable audience: the young?
And it is damned in its root, it's been proved that it comes from childhood whether is it a dysfunctional family, or having been raped etc, which, if not tackled, will come out as homosexuality. Of course it is easier to ignore these facts, sadly, and the media serves this purpose. So much that some people believe you are "born that way" when there is no proof of gay genes.

When emotion and syllogism wants to grind a logical minority. Ryan Anderson was brilliant
Because Piers Morgan just sides with whomever gets the best reaction from the audience. He sells out to the highest bidder.
Piers McDick has always been a careerist pig..
Piers really does a great job of making him sound like a bigot. Instead of listening to his argument and responding maturely, he responds with "Wow, you'd rather see a prisoner married than this wonderful respectable woman?" - thereby implying prisoners are automatically evil souls who should never be given rights - with that smug look on his face like 'gotcha there'. Such an a-hole host.
No, it was easy for Piers. The man IS a bigot. He just doesn't think he is.
The guy did not have a good argument, he most certainly does not have an argument that should be applied to anyone but himself. He is free to have whatever view of marriage he wants but should have zero right to apply it to anyone else by law based on his values. Marriage from a legal perspective that the state should be concerned about is not about anything but granting of specific legal rights for couples. I will say this again it does not matter what anyone's definition of marriage is from a governments perspective, it is about the rights for our citizens not stopping the evolution a word.
sharper68
He had a great point. That is the incentive for government to encourage natural marriage provides a stable long-term commitment under which the family unit may flourish. Also, it makes a child well rounded, learning what they need uniquely of the father and the mother. Research itself backs up consistently that heterosexual unions create a more stable home than homosexual couplings.
trenton9 Trenton, you're exactly right, but get ready for tons of people calling you a "bigot" lol. It just comes with the territory. If you don't worship the LGBT agenda and their influence on politicians, you're a close-minded pig in the eyes of the liberal.
trenton9 The government has no interest in arbitrary stasis of language or legal definitions because there is a group who loves the status quo even though it is unfair. Our government should be serving all it's citizens equally and not pandering to an ignorant sub group who would deny others the same family rights they enjoy because of old school bigotry.
Buddy does not have to call gay unions marriage, no one cares what he calls it. But because goverment has a roll in the process due to legal requirements they are forced to call gay unions marriage if equality for all is to prevail. Your right to claim the definition of a word will never supersede the rights of others who do not share your views to equal rights and treatment under the law.
Children flourish in loving homes with plenty of supervision and support. That there is a male and parents makes no difference and to say that strait parents raise more well adjusted children is not attached to reality. Your rant is a lie not backed by anything but ignorance and the actual studies tend to show that children raised in stable families with homosexual parents actually do better. This has zero to do with their parents sexuality and more to do with the fact that almost all homosexual couples have to do a great deal of planning and extra effort to have children, wanting a child is an excellent first step to them being happy. Children do well in places they are loved and cared for and be that a home of a heterosexual or homosexual couple makes little or no difference at all.
The public is seeing through the lies you spread in the name of the children thinly veiling your bigotry and naked ignorance. Your views already sit on the trash heap of history just like interracial marriage for the same reason, you just do not know it yet.
