The culture of shame and the closet that homosexuals have been forced into until very recently encourages the promiscuous behavior commonly associated with the LGBT community
Gays have more sex with more people when they are ashamed of being gay and trying to keep it a secret?
And if you're argument revolves around 'what's next' it means you have nothing concrete to argue against what's actually being discussed. Otherwise you wouldn't bring up the other things.
No human rights are not stupid but when people keep pushing more and more things to be human rights that is stupid. Bringing up what is next has everything to do with it you will be opening up pandoras box.

Hasn't every social issue been met with this same argument?
If gay people want the right to marry, why should a non-gay person decide if they can or cannot? Would they not know better than anyone else what it's like to be told they can't marry someone they care about?
First of all, "science" has not demonstrated that the desire to engage in homosexual conduct is genetically based. On that, you are flatly mistaken, regardless of what someone told you on MSNBC or some extreme far-left blog.
Second, to the extent that this is a scientific hypothesis, which it certainly is, science has also come to the same conclusions about gambling, alcoholism, and of course other sexual tendencies like pedophilia, bestiality, etc. These are all temptations that people who have them appear to have from early days, and in most cases, those temptations may be denied and constrained, but they usually never entirely go away.
We are all tempted without any choice that we can discern, but we choose to act on our temptations. The temptation is not the sin, the action is. It is not the desire that is the sin, as most people have very limited controls over their desires. It is the fulfillment of those desires that is the sin.
Virtually nobody is refusing to serve homosexuals based solely on their sexual "orientation", as I am confident you are well aware. As far as homosexual "marriage," there is no such thing. There never has been and there never will be, this current bizarre homosexual "marriage" fad notwithstanding.
Whether the desire of homosexuals is immutable or not, I do not know. However, there is no solid science that backs that assertion up the way that you have cavalierly insisted that it does.
Nevertheless, just like other types of temptations, such as gambling, alcoholism, and of course other sexual tendencies like pedophilia, bestiality, etc.; just because the temptation is there, that does not justify the conduct. Just because we feel like doing something, that does not make it right or alleviate its status as a sinful behavior.
There's tonnes of data supporting the immutable nature of same sex attraction but you, in typical fashion, choose to ignore it. [MOD CUT/trolling]
Why do some people agonize so much over homosexulity, while not fretting over adultery, even though committing adultery, like homosexuality, was worthy of the punishment of death in the bible. Also adultery breaks up a lot of families from the divorces it results in. Yet, a number of people believe it's a lot more important to be concerned over homosexulaity in society. All I can figure out to explain this phenomenon is that people find the sex acts that homosexuals do to be a hell of a lot more offensive than the sex acts that heterosexuals do every time they commit adultery. And so it's the deep offense some people get from homosexual sex acts that drives this hyper concern over homosexuality.
That's a false question. You may as well ask why would anyone choose to shoot heroin into their veins? The answer for both is the same, because they like it. But just because they like it doesn't make it behavior that others should be forced by law to accept.
Sexual orientation is not behavior. Being gay is not a choice, the definitive should be the people themselves who say they did not choose to be gay. The only ones who claim it is a choice are the anti gay folk, because then they can discriminate against us.
so until everyone accepts that some people are born gay, then us conservatives dont understand science? rubbish. the talk of a gay gene has been squashed because it isnt true.
all this OP is trying to do is force everyone to accept his view point, that people are born gay.
Were you born straight, was your sexual orientation a choice? That is all you straight people have? We gays know we did not choose to be gay, we know we are not mentally ill or degenerate. You should be ashamed of yourselves for the way you treat gay people, it is sick.
