there does appear to be harm to the society by legalizing homosexual marriage.

Let me be clear about my position. I do not think that the government should legalize homosexual marriage in the sense of licensing and recognizing them. I think they should just get out of that business altogether. People can call themselves married if they want.

I think the Sweden was a case study.

Go on. I'm listening.

Scratch under the surface and you'll find that the problem for wagglebee is that homosexuals aren't being imprisoned.

You know this how?

Wagglebee's comments to me in #16 imply it, although imprisonment is possibly a bit of an exaggeration. Let me put it this way. I say wagglebee believes that homosexuality should be illegal, and if anyone wanted to make a bet I would give them odds.

Sorry, Scandanavia, not Sweden per se.

From my perspective you read W's post with a great deal of prejudice.

Of course, I have my own bias so I could have missed something.

However, it smacks of a weak argument to presume the person with whom you are arguing of the most egregious position when it has not been stated. It's like saying, "I can't argue with someone with a reasonable viewpoint, so I'll pretend yours is unreasonable then argue with that."

Shalom.
