Oh, and guess what.... notions of morality are ever changing, so get with the program, or go the way of the dinosaurs.

Actually, it kinda is.

Sure. But seeing as how this is AMERICA, and we like to pretend we are all about individual liberty and personal freedoms, I would imagine that society HERE would be open to most things that cause no harm to others.

Yes. You're so oppressed. It must be difficult for you, everyday.

Good thing your vote is meaningless.

Nope. Never occurs to me that I am gay when I wake up in the morning. Never occurs to me, period, until some jerk tries to oppress me.

Same thing with the color of my skin. Completely eludes me until I get treated differently. Then it cheezes me off.

Must be nice to never have anyone ever question anything about you and simply accept you as you are...

The full details can be found printed in special ink underneath the ingenious cover of rainbow flags and bumper stickers. You need special glasses to see it, which can only be obtained after successfully completing a sex act with a certifed member of the gay mafia. Remember, the first rule of the gay agenda is that there is no gay agenda.
You had me until the broccoli.
Can I do broccoflower instead?

Society changes. Women used to be property and blacks used to be slaves. Society supported that. Doesn't mean it was right. A lot of people hate gays due to pure ignorance. Doesn't make it right.

Gays recruit? How? If your child thinks he is a homosexual he or she probably already is!

Homosexuals try to minimize this as the reason for their union. Yet, it is what defines their relationship. It is not about raising children in an abnormal environment, it is about selfishness.

I do not care who does what to whom in private---male-to-male, female-to-female, beastiality, trans-something-to-trans-other, included. But please do not try and tell me that homosexual human behavior is normal human behavior. It is not and should not be celebrated as such. A committed relationship between two same-sex humans has nothing to do with traditional marriage. If they want contracts between themselves, then get a lawyer or sign a medical directive.
I'm saying the term normal is subjective and relative. To the heterosexual community gay relationships are abnormal, Ok? You agree?

I'm also saying that to gays who refer to themselves as "straight", hetero relationshops are abnormal for their community.

I'd like to get away from subjective terms that label and just establish what the issues are.

If we can establish there is an agenda I would like to identify the goals of the agenda and discuss their merits. Respectfully addressing the concerns of those who feel threatened on both sides of the issue
Here is a link to what is reported as "The 1972 Gay Rights Platform."

Looks like most have been or are near accomplished, although State Goal #7 Repealing all laws governing the age of sexual consent I don't think has yet been accomplished.

The 1972 Gay Rights Platform Platform created at the National Coalition of Gay Organizations Convention held in Chicago in 1972

Heterosexual religious anti-gay people are simply afraid that the country will somehow go downhill if gays have equal rights. I can speak with confidence that, even though up here in Connecticut and surrounding states we have had gay marriage for years, NOTHING downhill has occurred with regard to sexual morality and the family structure. I laugh at all of their arguments.

And personally, I think 3% is a lowball figure, but whether it is 30%, 3% or .3%, there is no reason to consider them abnormal.

Don't give them any ideas. The next thing you know the Mormons and other fundies will be spending millions to pass constitutional amendments banning marriage for people with red hair or that write left handed.
