You're right, respect is a two way street..... You gotta give it to get it. Now how does that apply to your statement above.....
Anyone who thinks being gay is a choice is a fool.
It's for the courts to decide the constitutionality, not you.
Sure. Only the freedom of assembly is guaranteed.
The government made discrimination legal through slavery and Jim Crows.
Not sure the relevance of freedom of choice. You can choose to be discriminatory and/or racist, but you can't do it when operating a business.
"does that apply to your statement above"' Your lack of knowledge of the gay community NOT "respecting" those that disagree with their life style is well documented.
"Anyone who thinks being gay is a choice is a fool" Anyone who disagrees with YOU is a fool. How tolerant YOU are.
"It's for the courts to decide the constitutionality, not you." The courts have changed their rulimgs many, many times. They are NOT infallible.
IF the courts clanged their ruling , would YOU accept it?
However, you'll have to give me more information than just a bunch of statements because I'm sure most of those things have actually already been challenged in some way.
"I'm sure most of those things have actually already been challenged in some way"
If you are so "sure" it wouldn't hard for you to give us some info to back it up?
I get it. ANYONE who disagrees with YOU is a fool!
On the topic of left handiness or right handiness not being a choice yes. Was merely using that comparison when others make the claim that there is no scientific evidence that being gay is not a choice.

Learn to use quote boxes.
I stand by my fool statement, it's 2014 and there is no evidence to suggest that being gay is a choice.
Tolerance only goes so far. No one is asking you to embrace homosexuality, just give them the same rights as you have.

No, don't really care enough to look it up. Just have a hard time believing that those circumstances haven't happened before.
"Neither do I but I was addressing your vast stereotype."
And YOUR stereotyping is OK?
Which was what?

When you CAN'T discuss an issue, revert to juvenile name calling.
Why is it that people like you ALWAYS revert to name calling when they disagree with what someone else thinks?
Wow, lost cause. I agree with your position. You simply reacted like a child. My example was simply an example of where I would care more than not at all. If you would have slowed down you would have realized that.
But what G-d? The farmer's certainly don't believe in any G-d I see fit to believe in, and that's their CHOICE. It is also their CHOICE to operate a business in a state with anti-discrimination laws that cover sexuality.
They chose poorly.
