Every species on earth, are obsessed with culling the weak & the freaks from the gene pool. Humans are no different. Humans have tried since their creation, to cheat mother nature. Mother nature always wins, to make the species stronger, or become extinct.

Looks to me like y'all right-wingers are losing this fight. And becoming pariahs in the process.

So what was that you said about the weak and the freaks? You mean losers and pariahs?

A marriage recognized by the government is a type of contract between two consenting adults. I don't see a problem with calling the two parties 'A' and 'B'. Religious institutions are free to set their own rules about the definition and language of marriage for religious purposes.

We cannot fool Mother Nature. No matter how hard we try.

I noticed my message was avoided... Wonder why?

Now you're being silly. There's no such thing as gay marriage.

Biology doesn't agree with your notion of freaks.
Homosexuality exists in all mammal species, most birds, many reptiles and fish in in the entire insect world.
If there was no place for it in nature, it would not exist.

You claim to have some Native American blood. If so, then part of you comes from a culture where homosexuals were prized members of your community. They were the healers, the visionaries, and some of the mightiest warriors.
Soldiery and homosexuality have gone hand in hand, very literally, in all European societies of the past. The Roman legions were encouraged, some to the point of enforcement, to take on male lovers from their ranks, as they fought harder for each other in battles than heterosexuals did. The same was true in all the most elite ranks of every nation at one time or another.

The U.S. Navy encouraged the practice for decades for the very same reason. That includes the Marines.

Don't be making blanket statements on something you obviously know nothing about. You most probably have gays in your extended family tree. All of us do.

And how much of this rubbish do you "know" from first hand observation and experience? Yep, that's what I thought. But it has become oh so fashionable, so hip, to peddle it anyway. Hot air, followed up by sharp-tongued ridicule of any who dare challenge it, is the engine that drives the "progressive" agenda.

Ever heard the saying practice what you preach?
