Small government and liberty BY DEFINITION make a person's private sexual choices between consenting adults ALTOGETHER IRRELEVANT. You want to give them relevance and bolster the ridiculous notion that those of us who understand that they are and MUST REMAIN irrelevant are somehow connected to "hate." It is bullsh*t, and you need to stop where you are and rethink your take on it.
I agree 100% that it’s irrelevant. That doesn’t mean that our image projects that like it should though. Take this comment I got:
“I don’t know about you, but I wouldn’t invite drug addicts or polygamists into the Republican Party any more than unrepentant sodomites. I want my kids to grow up with clear values and not think that its normal or healthy for a man to find erotic stimulation with the fecal waste organ of another man. To me it’s common sense.”
I was responding to that line of thinking—I’m saying that we need to let gays know that we really don’t care, but I don’t think they’re going to pick up on it if we don’t say anything at all. Then the only voice heard will be the one I quoted. He can say that all day. But if he’s the only “conservative” speaking, he’s making the rest of us look like him. See what I mean?
