Dump the word *gay* = call it homosexual.

It’s deviant, sinful and abnormal.

Let us assume your definition is entirely correct.

What is your prescription for dealing with the people who fit it?

Goldberg doesn’t usually miss the point so completely. Homosexual conduct is morally reprehensible under every conceivable set of circumstances, so why should we be trying to find either “gay” marriage, or any alternative, to be acceptable?

For many years it was a diagnosable mental illness or condition and treated as such. Why not return that that construct?

Rape and sodomy charges.

They do it for domestic violence for women who are clueless, they need to do it for victims of gays. Period.

By the way, according to a recent study, "Modern Family" is the No. 1 sitcom among Republicans

Only because of the Latin Chick (extremely hot) and the Blonde Babe (also hot)....the rest of it I speed through - thanks to DVR.....

Fascinating piece, thanks for posting. It is exceedingly ironic that such "liberation" movements have devolved into a desperate, government-backed effort to join the bourgeoisie, but it isn't unprecedented. I've made the argument elsewhere that it's what happened to the entirety of the proletariat since Marx printed Capital.

There is something left of this aggressive tendency, however, and although it might be categorized as violent revolution reduced to juvenile whining, it's still there in those gay activists who don't really want to marry, have children, or join the military, neither do they want their friends to, but insist on forcing the issue only because it pisses the straight world off. That may be cultural subversion but it certainly isn't revolution.

You got it. The consequences of acceptance will not be nice. For example the “gay” legislator in California that wanted to legalize possession of small amounts of kiddy porn. The sodomites will start harvesting school kids once gays get EEOP “rights.”

This may boomerang on the gays - they can no longer - as commanders have reported - join the service just for the benefits - and then, if facing deployment to combat, ‘confess’ they are gay and get out.

I've a suspicion there will be a drop off in gay enlistees.

Frantic efforts have been made over the past 30 years to accommodate women and gays in the military. If the draft was ever re-instituted, think of the mad rush by many to suddenly be “unaccommodated.”

Discourage it, ridicule it, not celebrate it.

HIV/AIDS wasn’t an accident. It is nature’s way of dealing with deviant promiscuity. Keep giving them the Ok’s and pats on the back and when the next wave hits, watch out.

So which person in a consensual relationship is the perp, and which is the victim?

Because then it is a behavior and not an identity. Once that fact is realized then all support disappears for the discrimination mantra.

As a behavior that is inherently disordered, it then points to other behaviors that are disordered. The Left doesn't want that pointed out.

It still is a diagnosable mental illness.

The same prescription I would have for pedophiles, porno addicts, drug addicts, thieves, and criminals of all stripes.

Jesus Christ.

That’s who saved me from drug addiction.

Homosexuality is slavery. It is a curse. Christ can break any and all curses.

Because a significant majority of Americans today disagree with the construct, and it cannot possibly be enforced against such an opinion?

Your prescription might work, but it would require first changing back the opinion of most Americans. And, unfortunately, the trend is the other direction.

Jesus Christ.

That’s who saved me from drug addiction.

And me from alcoholism. He's the ultimate answer for everything.
