I believe that gay marriage will lead to less promiscuity and therefore reduce sexually transmitted diseases. A good thiong for all of society.

On what do you base that belief? Have you considered all the ramifications of allowing gay marriage? You've apparently ignored the links I and others have provided.

And you keep missing the point. There is no scientific evidence homosexuals are born that way. In fact, science is quite hostile to the born that way theory and yet, for years now, homosexual radicals have been saying homosexuals are born that way. Science and every single credible study says otherwise. I'll take my chances with science, decades of study and a growing ex-gay population.

But you have a belief... and you think California should change the definition of marriage, something Californian's already voted on but that vote was over ruled by 4 judges.

I base it on life experience. Do you not think it intuitive that married people have fewer sex partners than single people? Do you not think that some people take marriage vows seriously?

You keep bringing up whether or not people are born gay. I have said nothing on the subject and it is not related to my argument. I don't know why you repeatedly bring it up?

Did you understand my comment as to why it doesn't matter? If you chose your religion, you have that right. If you're naturally born you have other rights. The nature, nurture issue is not related to what I am saying.

In order to recognize the right of people to pursue happiness then Cal may have to change. But given the court decision, it is you who are advocating the change. Gay people are getting married everyday in Cal. You want to stop that.

Doesn't matter the number of votes. Rights are not subject to the vote of the majority. I think that's what the moderate to conservative Cal court was trying to tell you and what USSC decisions have indicated for 200 years. Civics 101.
