“...being driven by Christophobia.”
Being driven by normalphobia! One doesn’t have to be a Christian to understand it’s not normal for a man to bugger another man. Not only that, but anal sodomy is a public health threat. Meaning? Government has a legitimate interest and should discourage homosexuality, because it spreads disease.
But they will argue, however perverse, that it is normal for them - you are just too "heteronormative" - and STIs are a result of "unsafe sex" (any sex that will send you to Hell is), and point out the STI rate among heterosexuals and adultery, and with overpopulation then homosexuality is an evolutionary adaption. And even animals do it, so how "natural can you get?" Thus they can also justify having their mate for dinner as well.
Without a proven beneficial transcendent material moral standard then man's objectively baseless reasoning can justify anything. Of course, it is imperative that standard be worthy of being so, and this country had its Constitution and a moral foundation that owes more to the Bible than any other book. Something about our Constitution being made only for a moral and religious people.
Not only that, but anal sodomy is a public health threat.
You mean the main cause behind half a million American's death, and for 79% of new HIV cases today. And the estimated lifetime cost of treatment for one person with HIV is $379,668 (in 2010 dollars). What if any other consensual act typically resulted in such a greatly increased incidence of infectious diseases and premature death. Would it be promoted as normative and the practitioners be given equal and special rights?
Yet "how does that effect you" they ask. And with the ACA the day could come when they gov. decides you are raising your kids in a psychologically unhealthy environment by teaching them homosexuality is wrong.
