Eh, dude, I'd say I'm plenty differentiated from Dobson and his ilk. I
support personal freedom, whereas Dobson & Co. think they should make
your choices for you because you can't be trusted to make the "right"
choices (that is, the choices they think you should make).
Sorry, you have still done nothing to show that you are different. If
someone believes in the hear that homosexuality is wrong, and to have any of
it in society is wrong, your goal is to force your beliefs and what you
think is "right" on those people. In other words, no matter what the issue,
one side or the other will not be happy with the results.

Apparently you can't tell the difference between person X wanting to
have the right to exist and person Y wanting to have the right to tell
person X he can't exist. That's a sad commentary on you. I see a world
of difference. It is pretty easy for me to see which one is forcing
things on the other.
Oh, and I'm straight, 35-years married, and the thought of homosexual
sex makes me physically ill. (For that matter, so does the though of sex
with some women like the morbidly obese neighbor friend, but I digress).
But I can also figure out that it is none of my business and that
homosexuals shouldn't need to come get my permission to get married. I
sure as hell didn't have figured it was anyone else's business who I
choose to marry. I don't even recall asking her father for permission;
I'm fairly traditionalist, but not that much so; we instead just told
him about our decision to get married.

How about waiting until they find out who did it before you

Let's just say it's in line with the other stories that I posted, 'kay?

Is it your opinion that not one gay person out there could have actually
done this?

That's not what I said. You really need to work on that comprehension
problem.
The point is that at the moment the only person who knows who did it is
the person who did it. Your attempt to link it to gay activists is
nothing more than uninformed speculation.

Whether you like it or not, people have every right to approve or disapprove

for people to try and force their own views of homosexuality on others, by
whetever means necessary, notably trying to get tolerance for such to be
placed into the curriculum of public schools. And don't tell me that isn't

My personal feeling is that the government doesn't have the Constitutional
authority to permit marriage to ANYONE, let alone gay or straight. Marriage
is a religious observance, and therefore should be covered under the
separation of Church and State. My feeling is, since marriage is a religious
ceremony (and of the government insists on being involved with such), if the
government recognizes the tax-exempt status of a specific church or religion
and that church or religion performs a religious ceremony, to straight or
gay it makes no dofference, then the government should recognize it. |

You see this all boils down to "Do you feel homosexuality is an OK way
to live or not?" You can ignore it but when it broaches your children's
education, you're going to get a very different reaction from straight
parents than the typical "I don't care what you do behind closed doors".
Because what happens behind closed doors always seems to waft into
society sooner or later.

Its really not about monetary issues - not the big picture. Its about
the legitimizing of it. And that only comes from education. From the
next generation. You want to change society? Control public education.
That is what this is really about - what we will realize in a few
decades when liberals let this pass today. |
