Same rules apply to homosexuals, would be polygamists, zoophiles, etc

It's called equality.

I'm just letting you know, OnTheLeft, that he has been trying to compare gay people with those who have sex with animals, children and multiple partners for YEARS.

He is unable to discern the difference - which is scary, all by itself.

But - if you want to get into it with him, I'm just letting you know of my observance and experience with him for years.

LOL - forewarned is forearmed!

It's no less true now than it was 5 years ago!

Justice Scalia has made the same comparisons, among many other learned legal experts and academics

I can discern the difference very clearly - just as I can discern the difference between a normal, healthy sexual relationship and a homosexual one.

Meh, he's starting to bore me now.

So he's been railing on about gay people for years here? That's pathetic.

I read somewhere that most people who are that homophobic almost always have nagging questions about their own sexuality.

IOW, perhaps he doth protest too much.....

Hate is NOT a 'family value.'

I've heard that taunt so many times it bores me!

Strange how you will defend your abnormality one minute then use it as an insult the next??

Anyway the main thing is my side is winning - the prospect of homosexual marriage is gradually fading away like the setting sun. Traditional marriage has been successfully defended.

Who was trying to ban it?????

I want to write a letter to the organizations trying to ban traditional marriages - please cite these organizations. We all want to know - unless it's just hysterical bullshit rhetoric, of course.

Such a wise guy!

Why are you translating all these verbs into "ban"?

I assume because your arguments on this topic have been successfully dismantled so many times before!

I do see how that is quite ironic in it's own way Gary. Not that I support your political positions especially as presented with arrogance. But I will give you this, that there got me to thinking some more.
