Re: Tal is right
It also seems to me the issue has been seized upon to demonize traditional social conservatives that see homosxuality as a sin, and imo, that is deeply unAmerican and troubling because the whole effort to try to force people to adopt the exact same values is wrong, imo. The idea of America is that different factions could co-exist peacefully.
I think I speak for many when I ask you to point me to where you are being forced to marry a homosexual?
In fact your statement is just plain hypoctitical and contradictory. Out of your mouth you attempt to justify ramming your values down someone elses throat and out the side with the vertical smile you talk about co-existing peacfully? What kind of twisted mega-weed are you smoking?
The push for gay marriage instead of just civil unions strikes me as a push to normalize homosexuality at the exclusion of conservative beliefs in the Bible, and moreover, more of a political campaign to demonize social conservatives.
And, once again we wonder whether you will ever understand that homosexuality IS normal. It happens across species. I guess if I looked at it from your view, God would seem to have a sick sense of humor, eh?
It might be my humble opinion, but the social conservatives (as you call them) don't need anyones help. They do quite well enough demonizing themselves.
