Porn is also a social problem. I am referring to gay people who push for acceptance so that they can continue their gay lifestyle without regard for others.
lets take a look at gays in the military. I haven't heard much in the news about it. But, it was front page news just a year ago. Gay rights? I thought that gays would be happy that we have made huge strides in gay rights?
Why don't we hear much about it? Here's my guess...
1. The push for this change was not made by actual servicemen. It was never about gays serving in the military. If it was then you would have seen a flood of gays joining the military.
2. lets face it, most gays do not want to serve in the military anyway. The military has a "service before self" core value. That means that any person (gay or straight) needs to sacrifice certain personal lifestyle choices when they are in the military. This is in direct contradiction to most of the gays who pushed for gay rights.

Great. Yet another person who is unfit to live in free society.

Whats the matter? Need daddy government to tell you what you can and can't do? Too weak willed to not do things you consider baaaad unless it's punishable by law?

Pathetic.

IT DOESN'T AFFECT YOU OR PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT GAY!!

Therefore, NO REGARD NECESSARY! You don't have the right to not be offended in this country. You don't have the right to be surrounded only by like minded people.

You aren't forced to be gay, like gays, or get a gay marriage. Nothing about YOUR LIFE should change, any more than an interracial relationship affects you beyond your own personal discomfort with same.

You don't hear anything about it because it was a non-event that hasn't affected the military, caused units to become "uncohesive," or any of a number of things doomsday conservatives predicting would come true.

Conservative fears NEVER EVER come true. Nostradummies.

How exactly does someone's gay lifestyle effect you?

Answer - It doesn't! Not in the slightest.

The brainwashing, if there is any, is actually going the other way, trying to convince us it's 100% genetic like race or gender. Remember the "gay gene" fraud many years back? There is still NO conclusive scientific evidence for being born gay. Only theories. Of course some people are born with propensities to strong draws; alcoholism, sex addiction, even pedophia. And yes, some of these can show as a physical or chemical difference of some sort somewhere in the brain. But it is not uncontrollable, nor does it mean we should be accepting of it all.

And what do the animals do when they have the choice, in other words when they have the choice of the opposite sex and not only the same?

As a side note, very ironic that both of the above claims fly in the face of Darwinian evolution. So, which is it? Hard to have it both ways, don't you think?
Homosexual tendency should be naturally occurring less and less if it's all biological; otherwise, something in the environment is causing it if it's steady/increasing.

Exactly. Or, we could just regress back to ancient Rome and throw pedophia and similar into the mix. Homosexual behavior is NOT something new today.

If gay marriage is legalized in the US on a national basis, large numbers of people will LOSE rights; Christians, Jews and Muslims will lose the right to refuse to service gay weddings, counselors to advise against aspects of the gay lifestyle, and basically anyone to speak their disagreement of it. And more....

When interracial marriage was legalized, did "Christians, Jews and Muslims" lose the right to disallow interracial marriages among parishoners? Did racist churches go away?


And why did you qualify your post with "on a national basis?" Let's look at the states that DO have gay marriage... is there an epidemic of churches being forced to ordain gay marriages?

Do protections afforded to non-discrimination based on RELIGION mean that churches are forced to marry Muslims?

Such sad chicken littles.

WRONG! Your claim is nothing but propaganda. No church will be forced to perform a religious marriage ceremony for a couple that is not in accordance with the beliefs of that church. In this country, you need a government-issued marriage license to be recognized as married. The religious ceremony is optional and is the choice of the couple and the church. Gay marriage will not change that, so stop with the lies!

Or, maybe all the self-Righteous whining hypocrites who claim they're for less government and less regulation yet clamor for more of each when it suits they picayune little hatreds should move to Mexico and let the US get back to actually functioning as if "All men are created equal"

Once again, race is not comparable. Race is something one is unquestinably born with and cannot change.
