im going to assume were talking about what came first, a fully evolved chicken or the egg containing a fully evolved chicken, and when you think about it that way, its pretty obvious you need a fully evolved chicken to lay the fully evolved egg.

I'm surprised more States haven't legalized this. While many States do have domestic partnership and civil union laws, many still ban it completely. I have been unable to find an argument against the rights to gay marriage, which is essentially an equality right, and there aren't many anti-equality arguments.

Obviously to an extent, all children should listen to their parents. Parents are supposed to prepare kids for their lives after they leave home. After a certain point, parents shouldn't have complete control over their children, but certainly if they are paying for your food, clothing and shelter, you should listen to them.

I also think however, that some parents are unfit to raise children, but that's a slightly different debate.
