I read down a little and see that you don't want the government endorsing hetero or homo sexuality. But there is a clear rational for the government endorsing one and not the other. If you cannot see this, perhaps your blinded by feeling of kindness toward your homosexual friends. Note that I don't mind your friends being openly homosexual with you. I just don't want them being openly homosexual with society as a whole.

What I really don't want to see is a society endorsing the "anything goes" attitude that somehow sexual preference is a protected Civil right. I don't buy that there is an analogy with interracial marriage. What society has moved to the "progressive" position of free homosexual - transgender -- man boy -- Etc relationships? How can you be so sure you would like living in such a society here in this day and age? I don't doubt that society could give a license to any behavior they wish, including but not limited to PDAs, rape and murder. But we have a social need to have some rules. (This is really the origin of the Old Testament treatement of homosexual behavior.)

What bothers me is a small group of societies members raise a "freedom and civil rights issue" when one really does not exist and claims that the rest of us will really like the new society when they acheive it.

And as for marriage rights, the only right being sought is financial. The right to be declared a dependent and share in medical and pension benefits. All other aspects, like consulting in medical treatements can and have been covered by contracts. Give someone your Power of Attorney and you will see what I mean. That you don't see this is evidence of a lack of research, or worse (you have the same agenda and have not yet admitted it.)
