Re: Same sex attraction discussed......
You said in Message 137:

I suppose all of this leads into the old argument of legislating morality, and I do not condone THAT, either.
But you also say...
quote:
I think that it is ludicrous for society to attempt to push them [homosexual men] into a relationship with a women. I don't want them to marry a man, however.
So why is this? If you don't condone legislating morality, how can you justify legislation banning gay marriage based on a religious viewpoint? It would be one thing if the government was trying to force all churches to conduct such marriages - but no one's asking for that. We're just asking that they be granted equality from the eyes of the state.
