It has nothing to do with religion.

Why does such research happen to be allowed only in non-Christian countries?

Are we headed towards some kind of global civil war, or is everyone just going to become Muslim.... this stuff won't stand forever.

The document published last July by the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith falls foul of the Incitement to Hatred Act, according to sources quoted in the Irish Times on Aug. 2.

Hmmm... The lines of demarcation are becoming clearer.

In other words, suicide of gays is all our fault.

I certainly have no desire to be responsible for anyone committing suicide. Most normal people probably feel the same way.

However, if the cause of this situation is, as postulated, that their poor self esteem is due to my opinion (and by extension, that of the rest of society) of their activities, then an easy solution exists. Additionally, if, indeed, this poor self esteem leads to suicide, the solution to avoiding suicide on the part of homosexuals is incredibly simple:

If they wish to maintain some self-esteem by caring about what I (and by extension, that of the rest of society) thinks of their activities, then they should not engage in homosexual activities.

Alternately, if they wish to maintain their activities, then all that is necessary is for them to stop demanding that I (and by extension, that of the rest of society) care about their activities by forcing their agenda on me (and by extension, the rest of society).

Either way, problem solved!!!

Does the state have a right to impose conservative religious views on sexual morality on the rest of society?

Yes.

The state exists to provide for the safety and security of society. Since only Conservative religious views of sexual activity are best for society then only these views should be supported by the state. All others are attacks on the security and prosperity of society at large.

Every law imposes moral order of some sort. Only Christian moral order is best for all concerned.
