I understood perfectly what you said and I'm fully capable of discerning the difference between macro and micro experience.

What I'm saying is that no matter how radical the left gets, no matter what social agenda they push, 99% of 16 year old boys are biologically hardwired to want to see naked women. Nothing radicals can do will change that. That's how God made us.

Saying gay marriage is wrong because it's against God's word is acceptable. As Christians, many of us believe that.

Saying it's wrong because common sense dictates the concept of what a marriage is has remained remarkably stable across most civilizations and thousands of years of human history is also acceptable. Because it's a factual statement of truth.

Saying it's wrong because it will lead to rampant, uncontrolled homosexuality (which was your position) is just a bad argument because the 95% or 99% of the population that is, has been, and always will be straight aren't going to suddenly decide, "Hey, I think I'll get me some of that gay stuff." That makes no sense. The expound upon that, a nation is made up of individual citizens - I don't think my experience of suddenly realizing that women were hot when I was a teenager was unique to me. My point is that even in countries where radical social agendas have prevailed, the *percentage* of the population that is homosexual doesn't increase - they are just open and there is no societal "punishment" for the behavior.

I fully understood what you wrote. I think your logic is flawed. A far more powerful argument is simply that, for Christians, the word of God has a certain standard by which we must live.

My point was that even if the radical liberals win the conversation and future generations are taught that homosexuality is absolutely normal, your position that it will be wildly practiced by most people is just absurd. Virtually all boys, through the genetic and physiological design God put into them, want to bang chicks. That has nothing to do with what society says. We're wired to want to do it.

you are living in your own world and don’t see what is going on — the accepting homosexuality as genetic and normal — it’s even embedded into mainstream tv shows (like Law & Order).
There are many things that happen now that were unthinkable years ago. Our entire society is being re-shaped, and homosexuality is jut one of the battering rams being used. You can congratulate yourself all you want for being straight but you’re missing the point.
