Well, when you say the word "radical" you make them seem like they all dress like Boy George and pillage streets with pitchforks and torches. I'm just saying you are using a lot of hate-mongering words that distort reality.

3% of the population are Jewish: should we go insane just because they have "weird" customs?

All the laws, activist judges and redefinitions are never going to change the fact that not everyone is or ever will be as thrilled and excited about homosexuality as homosexuals are and there’s nothing they or anybody can do about it and this infuriates the homosexual radicals to no end.

"Heterosexuality is not normal, it's just common."

I'm neither homosexual nor a radical, and it infuriates me that people like you think you can use the law to express your bigotry.

When can we start denying jobs and housing to albinos, then?

Oh, and only about 11% of the world's population is left-handed. I don't want any of them in my office, they creep me out.

People that's different just don't got no rights, and that's just too bad but that's reality, yep you betcha!

You're preaching to the choir. Try recalibrating your sarcasm meter.

Scrolling through the past couple of pages of this thread, there is more effort put out by those who don't believe trying to argue, put down others etc.......GOD bless ya'll, I hope that you find peace with GOD in your life. Life is never easy but with GOD it can make tough times easier and struggles easier to bear.
The Bible isn't ancient?

The Bible was written in a time before science proved the earth rotated around the sun. Before gravity was defined as one of the fundamental phenomena of the universe Before all the continents were discovered by civilization. Before the discovery of electricity, the printing press, and most of what constitutes modern life.

To say the Bible isn't ancient id absolutely ridiculous.

the Bible was written when polygamy as recognized as social norm. Where slavery was not condemned. When the rights of women where totally subjugated. In short the Bible when some of the most primitive and repressive social practices where considered normal.

We have two possibilites regarding the origins of homosexual behavior-

1. It is learned
2. It is genetically based and cannot be either fostered or prevented

I am still waiting for answer, I gotta know!

How will my and my families lives be different, what will we "live through". Walk me through it, I wake up, a few homosexuals are married, now what? What happens to me my wife and kids?

Ah, the old "They're different/weird, so they're bad!" argument. A classic, to be certain, but doesn't hold much water outside of elementary school playgrounds.

Only 1-2% of the world population are redheads. Should we ban them from getting married because they're different, as well? They are, by definition, even less "normal" than gays, so.....

I'm willing to bet that gay folks don't care whether anyone is "thrilled an excited" by their homosexuality, so long as they are equal in the eyes of the law.

Stop letting your personal bias interfere with logic.

Have you watched Joel Osteen? While Christ emphasized on looking at self first, before accusing others, Joel Osteen has made a fortune by selling the idea... "it doesn't matter what others think of you". And then outside of his show, he goes about telling what he thinks of others. Typical.
