To: Protagoras; little jeremiah
I repeat, your rights are not being violated and therefore it is none of your business.

So lets say that little jeremiah decides to murder Protagoras. Since MY rights aren't being violated then I have nothing to say about it. The act is totally legal moral ethical etc because it doesn't violate my rights.

Or you could look at the complete picture. Now Protagoras' family is bereft and looking for revenge and this will cause ripples of effects throughout society as the fued expands. So the murder of Protagoras does affect my rights.

In the same way homosexual behavior affects all of society by increasing health care costs, increasing the presence of disease, increasing child molestations, damaging the family relationship etc. It affects my rights by destroying my country just as much as the murder of Protagoras would. In fact homosexual behavior damages my rights far more that the murder of P would.

Nice try at a childish play on words.

Consenting adults in this behavior violate no one's rights.

The rest of your post is equally incorrect. The statements represent your opinion, which I reject. And rights aren't based on opinions.
