I was discussing, and specifically sited, vices....one of which IS sex (vaginal, oral or buggery, I made no distinction).

Why must libertarians be so evasive? You don't disagree with this do you?

Sexual orientation, preference, gender, or gender identity should have no impact on the government's treatment of individuals, such as in current marriage, child custody, adoption, immigration or military service laws.

So why waste everyone's time avoiding saying so, while defending it and promoting it, in between the lines?

RE: “You don’t disagree with this do you?”

Yes, I DO disagree with your statment. NO subject can be so ‘lumped’ and still remain black/white. There is a myriad of gov’t intervention/tentacles that need to be chopped/unwound...THEN look at the subject at hand.

Case in point: this thread. Special treatment of some over others...NO (quite black and white)

vs. adoption: are we basing what is in the best interest of the child, or are we equally applying the Law/Rules? (IE: there is no guarantee of abuse by a homo couple [increased risk? I’d THINK so, but that’s not a basis for Law] vs. no guarantee of a loving/non-abuse by a hetero couple).

What about artificial insemination? Though the gay community cannot reproduce w/out ‘help’ does that make that baby NOT their child vs. hetero that cannot conceive w/out the same help...

There is nothing evasive, but I think I’m smart enough to see there is more than one angle to every ‘problem’, and most of that involves getting gov’t out of the process to reduce the variables.
