The constitution also guarantees separation of church and state yet Christians still try to introduce their dogma into the government.

Fail

I am in an interracial marriage right now. I was also a child whose mother left my father to be with another woman. I was beaten and abused because of that woman. My sister tried to kill herself because of it. That woman's very own son wouldnt be with her, but my mother put me and my sister thru it. There are many stories like it of people just like me.

Let me tell you something about interracial marriage. It produces a child with a father and mother. My sons are proof.

Homosexuality can produce nothing like a Interracial marriage can. Do you know how many of us are offended by your implications? But then again maybe that constitution doesnt apply to us.

Again the situation is alot bigger than what you list above.

When was being any other color other than white against the law of the land? And as for interacial marriage being against the law, was it Biblical? Any law that is not Biblical should be overturned.

Find where the constitution shows seperation of church and state. It is a fallicy that is perpetuated by those who have an agenda in mind.

If you believe in the seperation of church and state you can not even spend money. You can not participate in government. Your very president was sworn in with a bible in his hand. The same bible he mocks in his speeches.

You could say the same for anything else.

I don't want live with people who doesn't treat animals with respect
I don't want to live with people who doesn't want to eat meat
I don't want to live with people who are religious
I don't want to live with people who are not white
I don't want to live with people who are younger than I am

And the list goes on.

If you hate it, suck it up and deal with it as it's your own inner turmoil.

And yes, it does infringes on their rights. Or do I have a misconception about law, rules, and rights in a society?

Let me explain something to you, not since the Constitution of the United States had been ratified by the original 13 states has homosexuality been against the law and the only law of the land in this country since then has been the Constitution of the United States and the Bill of Rights. Its only people like you who have attempted to take the law into their own hands and change it to their own personal beliefs that such so-called laws were declared unconstitutional by the courts of this land. Now we are a country of laws, not religion, and nowhere in the Constitution of the United States is your Christian God or your sacred book ever mentioned. The Constitution and the Bill of Rights and the amendments are the laws of this land, not your Christianity or sacred book.

Again that is not true. It was a matter of state law not of federal law. You clearly do not understand there is a difference. It is not until the last 100 years that progressiveism has attempted to make anything a issue of federal law. There is a big difference.
