Um, where the heck did Scott say or even remotely imply anything close to the extreme viewpoint you just accused him of holding?
You invent things to rail against sometimes
Indeed - in FACT, my views are quite the opposite of what has been implied.
I SUPPORT "gay rights". I SUPPORT "civil unions." I SUPPORT anti-discrimination laws. I even SUPPORT the "right" of homosexuals adopting children, I just don't think that, at this point in out cultural history, it is (always) a good thing. NOT because, as I made clear, I have anything against gay people, but because I think that the children would be victims of harrassment - a harrassment quite unlike the harrassment that inter-racial adoptees receive, as racial harrassment is at least publicly frowned upon by most of America, while it seems a pretty good chunk of America sees no problem with outright discrimination against - if not the persecution of - homosexuals.
So I am in NO WAYT making gays out to be the bad guys. Indeed, I am 'making' the anti-gays out to be the bad guys - and yes, they are most likely the same 'white-supremicist' types that were mentioned.
As far as the 'social experiment', again, I did not write or even imply that gay couples would want to adopt BECAUSE they wanted to perform a social experiment, rather gay adoption ends up BEING a de facto social experiment.
Please do not read what is not written.
