Gay people have just never really bothered me. If they live their lives with dignity and behave themselves in the setting of a paired couple, I think that’s far better than the antics of a lot of the promiscuous “straight” perverts out there. The essence of a person’s worth to society is in his ability and willingness to work to take care of himself and the people around him, and I don’t believe gay people are any less able to do this than others.
I wouldn’t stand in a picket line to support gay marriage, either, mind you. I think the substantive issues they are complaining about are things like health insurance benefits and social security survivors benefits, and I feel that those issues could be solved administratively without having to redefine the religious sacrament of marriage, but I don’t really care that much either way.

There. Now it makes sense. Do you see how easy that was?
Yep I just figured that the other guy, in the course of trying to have me banned from the forum, might want to know why I don’t care, but as I can see from his subsequent follow-up, he’s not the type who thinks that intelligent people can care about different things in different degrees. Everyone has to see the world exactly the way he does.
I do not think he would win a lot of elections.
