heres a good arguement having nothing to do with religion.
the great society of rome fell when everyone stopped having children due to homosexuality. they actually paid people per child to encourage marriage and family life to ensure the future of the republic. homosexuality is not productive to the union because it does not provide "new" american citizens and deprives any adopted children of mother/father figures ( the last one is a different arguement and stands alone). ergo, the union does not have to provide any incentives to this type of behaviour. just like veterans etc get special privilages for their services to the state so too due married people. gay couples do not contruibute in this way, and although it is not right to discriminate against them, they musnt share in the perks of those who are productive.

Okay, that point has potential. However, I'm going to get back the argument that the earth has six billion people, and America has nearly 290 million people... we aren't exactly in a population crisis.

IMHO, the "what if everyone did it" argument is rather weak. In fact, IMHO, any "what if" argument is rather weak. Your thoughts?
