I am arguing with a 3 year old here!

Nice parrot imitation. But the fact remains I have facts to backup my opinion. You however, just opinion.

And again with the pedophilia, you just won't drop it even though YOU have asked others to not bring it up. I say take your own advice. Also you have NEVER provided any evidence that people are born pedophiles, so your point is moot!

You can't grant me the same courtesy?
Yes blacks use to be second class citizens and denied many rights by people, like you, who just knew they were right. Somehow the thought of drinking from the same fountain or sitting at the same table infringed on their rights. Much as with the gay marriage argument. We have a group of people being denied a right that if allowed that right would not negatively impact society in any way.

Again, you need to be schooled in the definition of a word!

"bigot
noun
a person who is utterly intolerant of any differing creed, belief, or opinion. "

As I have already said I am fine with you holding whatever belief you want, just don't force that belief on others. As such that means in this case I am not a bigot! You however fit this definition to a T! You are intolerant to the extreme.

Now I KNOW your going to say I am forcing my belief onto heterosexual couples, but that's not true as it would not affect them in any way. They could get married just as before. all this is is opening up marriage to more people

You don't have to mention the bible directly, you have made it clear that your religion is why you feel this way, and as the bible is the book of your religion it is the source of your beliefs.

Hey Einstein, it's already been pointed out to you multiple times that one has basically been proven to be true. As for the other, anyone can claim anything they want, it dose not make it so and it clearly dose not diminish any other similar claims that have scientific facts backing them up.

The fact you don't want to accept what amounts to scientific fact is not our problem, but yours.

Now to burst your bubble. I am not saying Homosexuality is similar to pedophilia. I am saying the argument pedophiles use (according to you, I have never head of it) is similar to one that has scientific facts backing it up for homosexuals.

I've not suggested we criminalize gays. You are flat out lying about what I have to say and I find that to be intolerant and bigoted. I expect that from the politically correct thought police nazis, though.
You do realise that you were born that way too? Heterosexual I mean.
