Yes, since the gay population has always been relatively small, which means there is no danger of not enough children being created. Gays also aren't sterile. I assure you if the human race was about to die off and only gay men and women were left, they could keep the human race going.

Science has also shown, homosexuality is an evolutionary trait found in nearly every animal species that is necessary for the survival of the species.

So, not only will homosexuality not lower the population, it helps control it and prosper it.

Jesus had a lot of negative things to say about people who oppressed the outcasts of society. He called them vipers and hypocrites.

Jesus said nothing about gays.

I am unclear how naivete applies, but no I am opposed to religious laws unless a REASONABLE secular reason can be demonstrated in combination with a compelling state interest to regulate whatever it is that it's trying to regulate.

Your morality is not mine. I'd appreciate it if you would stop trying to force it on me.

Then as I said, what is the point of me explaining things to you when you ask, since you will not change your views, and I won't change mine?

How is homosexual marriage a "civil right"?

I'm not a fan of how those laws changed. How dare my wife say no to sex! And I'm sorry but mixed race marriage is a disgusting abomination. God separated the races for a reason.

If "God" meant to separate the races, wouldn't he, in his infinite wisdom, made parts for each that didn't fit to make procreation impossible? Pretty much nulifies the God argument.

As a proud half of an interracial marriage, I am delighted in your discomfort.

I can't take anyone who takes pride that they teach the myth of evolution on a daily basis seriously.

I love languages so it wouldn't be an issue for me either. Not the point.

You're contradicting yourself. We're talking about a direct democracy, not a Constitutional Republic. A direct democracy can overrule the 1st Amendment by majority vote.
