I agree and if people don't like my viewpoints, no one is forcing you to read them. You should know by now what you are going to get from me. I find it kinda funny that a thread complaining about all the gay threads has only spawned into yet another big gay thread. lol

Then why are you starting another one? And never mind the glaringly obvious fact that you no one's forcing you to click, read, or comment on the existing gay marriage threads.

Actually I find the gay threads very educational....It gives me a peek into the dark minds of fundamentalists....

Maybe I misunderstood, but it sounded like you were espousing "separate but equal". They should just go make their own gay bakeries, gay churches, drink from gay water fountains, go in the gay entrance, of public buildings, etc...

We have seen how well that approach works...

Who is FORCING them to take the colleges funding and use their facilities? No one.

They can choose to cut ties with the college then they won't have to follow the colleges rules.

Gays do not have "special rights" since the laws say you can not discriminate based on sexual orientation. Heterosexual is a sexual orientation too.

What does that have to do with the argument? It is still an example of gays forcing themselves into religious groups that don't want them as leaders.

Something tells me that if I complained to a gay baker about not making me a cake, I wouldn't be rewarded thousands of dollars by the state.

Because the oh so tolerant LBGT community has no problem refusing to bake a cake for Christians:

Despite anti-discrimination laws in many states that require Christian bakery owners to bake cakes for same-sex weddings, 13 LGBT and gay-owned bakeries objected to one man's request when he asked if they'd make a pro-traditional marriage cake that would read "gay marriage is wrong." All refused to back the cake and one person even cursed at the Christian man for "hate speech" and said a cake supporting traditional marriage "went against their beliefs."


13 Gay Bakeries Refuse to Make Traditional Marriage Cake With the Message: 'Gay Marriage Is Wrong'

What happened to "it's the law!" The hypocrisy is outstanding.

What a silly site. Chock-full of breathless Christian hysteria.
