O.K. can someone please help? Heterosexuals make up, what, 90 percent of the populous and homosexuals make up approximately 3% (are these numbers correct and if so, what are the rest?) why is this marriage right being shoved down the majority's throat? I'm no homophobe, (some of my best friends are gay) ;D! but why are their rights or anything for that matter being discussed because they choose an alternative sexual lifestyle that I do not? I'm befuddled..... and be nice, it's still early.

According to Kinsey, homosexuals may represent around 10% of the population but this is not (no pun intended) a hard and fast number. There has been some recent indication that general acceptance (and perhaps even the practice thereof) is dramatically on the increase among the young.

To answer your question more directly, homosexuals tend to be more activist than the general population at large, starting with the Stonewall riots on Christopher Street in Manhattan in 1969. Additionally, as the black population has tended to become more conservative over time and drifted away from the shore, gays represented a natural alliance for the Liberal Democrats who needed a replacement constituency.

poo, I covered this here:

-A Gay ( or not! ) Old Time- GM links--

My estimate- based on 56 years of living, a gay first brother-in-law, gay employees in my former businesses, and the gay couple next door ( 18 years of pleasant co-existence, they are nice folks ) is 3 percent.

Yep, 3%, most of whom are not remotely interested in some "right" to get married anyway, dictating to everyone else a fundamental uprooting of society, thousands of years of convention... it's nuts.

It's even nuttier that it is taken seriously, let alone being considered as law, anywhere.

Heterosexuals make up, what, 90 percent of the populous and homosexuals make up approximately 3% (are these numbers correct and if so, what are the rest?)

According to NORC (the most authoritative and scientific study done to date) 2.5% of men and 1.3% of women actively choose sodomy as their "lifestyle".

That's about 1.9% of the population.

98% of the population is heterosexual and the remaining .1% consist of ambiguous individuals.

why is this marriage right being shoved down the majority's throat?

Ultimately, this attack on the family is satanic. Why? For two main reasons. The family is the bedrock of civilization. All citizens pass through the institution of the family. As the family goes, so goes society. Secondly, the family represents the image of the Trinity. The love of husband and wife, which begets a child, images the love of Father for Son, from which proceeds the Holy Spirit. An attack on the family is an attack on the earthly image of the Trinity.

homosexuals make up approximately 3%

Probably closer to 1-2%.
