During a Springfield City Council public hearing on amending the city's nondiscrimination ordinance to include sexual orientation and gender identity protections, Rev. Phil Snider of the Brentwood Christian Church lashed out at the council for "inviting the judgement of God upon our land" by making "special rights for gays and lesbians." He goes on to invoke the bible and morality and the end of days a few more times before suddenly appearing to lose his train of thought. Then something amazing happens.

Predictable. Too bad homosexuality is not a race and instead is a sexual preference. Two separate, different and completely unrelated issues altogether.

Whoever claimed that homosexuality is a 'race'? That's just silly.

However it accepted as an immutable trait because that's what all the evidence (that you ignore) shows.

Homosexuals want their unique sexual preference predicament regarded by society the same as a racial issue but it is not working because the two issues are separate and unrelated. “Rock and roll” could be substituted as well and you would get the same theme.

You may reject the comparison, but there are millions of Americans who accept it. It's just your opinion.

Not just my opinion. There are millions of other Americans who also do not accept this fallacious and intentionally misleading “comparison”.

I really can't see why straight people would go for it myself. Expecially women...it puts them out of the wife and mother business.
Oh...no wait there's adoption. Mmmmk....sooner or later the kids and everyone else are going to wonder WHY..............

It much more easy to say "son/daughter....Mommy and Daddy got horny one night".
