The issue really is a homosexual claim to "normality." From their perspective, they are "normal" and need reasurrance that others see and treat them as "normal."
Of course the problem is sexual organs do provide recreation but they are designed for procreation. By definition the aim of sexuality is not only thwarted but made impossible by homosexual acts. Further, if one one defines "abnormal" as statistically rare then a point prevalence of 4% or less is rare.
"Gay marriage" is just another effort at normalizing homosexuality.
"[S]urveys have estimated that 4 to 5 percent of men and 2 to 3 percent of women have had same-sex sexual relations after age 18. Studies that count only people who identify themselves as gay or lesbian, however, come up with much smaller numbers: about 2.8 percent of men and 1.4 percent of women." The New York Times
"The friend who forwarded this to me noted that though homosexualists made up only 2 percent of the population, they were nevertheless a very powerful 2 percent. A group representing only one out of every 50 Americans has such social power, I think, because they represent an extreme of sexual liberty that thereby justifies more "normal" immorality, e.g., rampant heterosexual fornication. The secular straight world listens to them and promotes their cause because it is sexually libertine itself and knows that a world in which sodomy is normal is a world in which no one will think twice about fornication or even adultery." David Mills
And they want our children exposed to their psycho version of sexuality.
Homosexuality is a mental disease and anytime it isn't viewed that way and treated accordingly, our whole country takes another step towards the abyss.
This should put California in play. If it loses, conservatives should make arrangements to move out before their assets are taxed away.
The thing that drives me nuts is the talk of “allowing” gay marriage. It’s really about requiring everyone to recognize same-sex marriage as legitimate. Or as you put it, normalizing it.
Question? If a man marries his son..will that enable him to pass along his fortune withoug paying inheritence tax?
From “The Naked Communist” 1958, Cleon Skoussen, former FBI Agent:
18. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as normal, natural and healthy.
25. Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce.

Wedge issue my rosey Irish bum...Newsom did this to get himself some national press, thinking it would catapult him to higher office in the State and get him some bona fides among the gay community, who regarded him as a “conservative” mayor. He’s a complete and utter imbecile who has done nothing during his tenure to improve conditions in this City, either for the residents or the commuters they need to fill those office buildings.
I think Newsom saw himself as a logical successor to Feinstein or Boxer, and apparently completely forgot that when it comes to gay MARRIAGE, a majority of the voters in this State aren’t willing to go that far. California has a domestic partners law that grants all the rights and privileges of marriage to registered unmarried couples, both gay and straight.
If Newsom’s grandstanding, then as now, brought conservatives and moderates to the polls, then he has only himself to blame. As they say in “Ghostbusters” — “Oh buddy, did YOU back the wrong horse....”
“The thing that drives me nuts is the talk of allowing gay marriage. Its really about requiring everyone to recognize same-sex marriage as legitimate. Or as you put it, normalizing it.”
Well, it’s actually a matter of making everyone adjust to defining their own marriage in a way that has nothing to do with child-bearing or family-rearing. Now it’s just about feeling “fulfilled.”
“...It’s hurtful...”
You poor baby...
Yes.
Yes it will.
I noticed from the bottom of the article the site http://www.gaysdefendmarriage.com/ . That’s a revelation to me.
That is an outstanding contribution. I didn’t even look. Actually, the author of the post gives a comprehensive and understandable explanation.
Thanks

“”Gay marriage” is just another effort at normalizing homosexuality.”
You’re 100% right... it’s an unavoidable conclusion once you buy the premise that homosexuality is as normal as heterosexuality.
The destruction of marriage will create enormous chaos on our society - this can be concluded from the Soviet Russian experiment to destroy the family in the late 1930s and early 1940s.
The ban on gays in the military caused many gays to sign up out of envy and spite. The don't ask don't tell policy took some of that motivation away, reducing the number of gay soldiers.
