p.s. all my arguments during the course of this debate are based off of my religion of christianity.
Gay relationships are as bad as stealing and adultery?
Hmm.

In the case of stealing, the person from whom something is stolen is a victim.

In the case of adultery, the person whose spouse is stepping out is the victim, and it can be argued that the stepper is also a victim.

Who is the victim in a gay relationship? I'm curious to know, because I'm in a gay relationship, and neither of us feels victimized. Well, I don't feel victimized... I'll double check with my wife when she gets home to see how she feels.

Without anyone coming to harm, it makes it pretty tough to say that gay relationships are as bad as stealing and adultery. But I'll give you a chance to clarify your viewpoint.

Oh, and I am opposed to capital punishment.
