Just so long as it doesn't happen while the baby is in the womb.......

Then you should spend more time lobbying for all divorced and remarried people to either return to their former spouses or to live celibate and apart for the rest of their lives. The fact that we don't see people like you advocating for legal sanctions against adulterous marriages clearly demonstrates that the move to ban gay marriage is not at all about wanting to enforce "biblical morality" or family stability.

I am really confused. When did gays and lesbians get a lifestyle, for as long as I can remember they had lives, not lifestyles.

A lifestyle is something you choose, a life is who you are and what you do. Gays and lesbians don't choose their orientation so how could they choose a lifestyle?

Wouldn't that, to use your charming phrase, "normalize homosexuality"?

Would you share with us your position on providing Social Security benefits, tax deductions, inheritance rights, immigration and citizenship rights, and all the other benefits that opposite-sex married couples have to same-sex civil union couples?

Exactly. People like to tout that less than 4% of people are homosexual. How many are remarried? More than 4% I'd imagine.

I support the rights of gay couples to enjoy the same protection traditional marriage provides, but I still believe there should be a distinction between a marriage between man and woman and a civil union recognized by the state. Many would call me a bigot for holding this opinion, regardless that I support equal rights for gay couples. This all-or-nothing attitude is extremely short-sighted and a big turn off to those you're trying to get on your side.
No, you do NOT support equal rights for gay couples if you think they should get "civil unions" but not marriage.

Sigh.

Why is it so hard for bigots to understand that separate is NOT equal?
