Lots of people used to make that argument. Even the Virginia Supreme Court said that it was unnatural to marry someone of a different race.

I wasn't making that comparison. I was responding to his assertion that homosexuality is a mental disorder.

Comparing interracial marriage to homosexuality is just plain ignorant, race isn't a mental disorder.

As I've seen it before.

Secondly, I did not say that they DID impose their beliefs on him. I stated that I have actually seen it happen before my very eyes way too often and that I can imagine that it is going on in that household.
And I'm saying it's impossible to be a parent and not impose your beliefs in some way.

Parents typically raise their kids to have morals similar to them.

That in and of itself is "imposing their beliefs".

Thirdly, I see that you have inserted things about religion as if I did not already know that heterosexual religious households impose strong beliefs on kids. Also, you come off as one of those atheist people that always have to point things towards religion. Yet, you want to scream about having an "open-mind." How about you have an open-mind?
Not atheist, but nice try. What I was trying to outline, again, is that "imposing beliefs" is something that every parent does.

Saying that's why homosexuals shouldn't adobt is idiotic.

Lastly, I don't think that wanting to change something as NATURAL as one's sex is having an open-mind.
Sex=/=gender.

OK, but I don't think dating interracially can be compared to having an unnatural attraction to the same sex. Black and white people (or whatever race example) can have sex together and scientifically via nature do what we are naturally created to (have babies). Homosexuals are going against nature with their sexual preference.

I'm not debating, I'm just stating what I think is a fact and a point. I don't really hate on homosexuals or anything, but I am going to comment on this story and state what I know.

There's like a pyramid of the human race. WAY above the ethnicity or skin color is the sex of our race: man and woman.

Well, the Republicans here are once again proving that they don't accept science and research. All that matters is what their guts tell them. They're brain dead.

Neither is homosexuality.

There are Democrats who think it's wrong too, just like there are Republicans who believe homosexuality is okay. I know people who are Democrats and say homosexuality is wrong.

Once again, you completely put words into my mouth, but that's OK. The last thing I will say to you is that I have NEVER seen such ramming of ideas onto children as I have seen from the mentally unstable homosexual households, super-religious (to use your example) or the households with parents who are politically passionate. One thing all of those people I know have in common is that they are either bipolar or borderline manic-depressive or some stuff like that.

Like I said, I either know these things for fact or I can read people in the grocery stores or something and tell they have mental issues. It ain't hard ... a lot of us can spot mentally disturbed people.
