Are you really this stupid in real life?
The ANALOGIES I am drawing are between the DISCRIMINATION of sexual orientation and the DISCRIMINATION of race.
THOSE ARE analogous.
How many times does this have to be explained to you?
I mean, I get the fact that you don't like the race / sexual orientation analogy. I understand fully what your responses are. I don't agree, but I comprehend the words you type.
But you haven't a clue as to what I am saying. You don't remember anything. It's like you're suffering from memory loss each time you post.

Again, a pathetic lie.
"Emotion" has nothing to do with this.

You stated: "Homosexuals already have equality..."
You didn't specify "equal rights".
Second, a straight person can say "I am straight".
A gay person cannot say "I am gay".
And you call that equality?
Thirdly, you're doing PRECISELY what I knew you would do.
You start by making the obvious lie that gays and straights "have equality".
Then you turn around and you JUSTIFY the discrimination, or you try to obfuscate the issue by calling it a "qualification".
If a person who is 180# can join the military, and a person who is 380# is forbidden, that is not "equality".

Nope, nor should they be able to. Can a gay couple provide a child with both a Mummy and a Daddy? |
So you're admitting that you were lying when you said gays and straights had equality?
And now you're back-peddling to a position of just supporting the discrimination?
You've done that every single time you try to claim that gays and straights are treated equally...

1) It's hilarious how the current situation caters EXCLUSIVELY to heterosexuals, but it is the homosexuals who are questioned regarding "special rights".
It is straights who currently have the "special right" to marry in the exclusive heterosexual manner.
Your argument would be like having a law that allows only the worship of Christianity, and then saying it's a "special right" for a Jewish person to want to worship Judaism.
2) Again, the constitution doesn't say "same criteria".
It says EQUAL RIGHTS.
