If you meant it seriously, then please answer the following question: In what way is a consensual relationship between two adults of the same sex even remotely comparable to the premeditated murder of thousands of people?

I think he used the Atta example because it's just as unlikely and ridiculous as the 6 out of 10 bullsh*t. And the article isn't talking about a 'consensual relationship' - they're talking about equating traditional marriages with deviant marriages.

Furthermore, after the gay marriage thing passes, the next 'lifestyle' for which they'll demand legal recognition and protection is swinging, then bestiality, then who knows what else. Remember when the legalization of abortion was for 'the very poorest of women', 'the most desperate situations', etc.? Now there's abortions for everyone, at any time, for any reason.

Thanks for a brilliant demonstation of the logical fallacy known as the slippery slope.

Yup, incrementalism is a classic tactic of liberalism. In fact, it's safe to say they've taken over the nation with it. I remember when the anti-smoking movement first got rolling, with a smoking ban on U.S. flights under two hours. Why, if you didn't go along with something reasonable like that, you were some kind of extremist! One little step at a time. And at EACH of these steps, no matter what the particular issue is, the bulk of conservatives sit back and let it happen, for fear of being branded a kook or a bigot or a whateverphobe. Through tiny steps by the enemy, we have lost our nation.

"... because it's just as unlikely and ridiculous as the 6 out of 10 bullsh*t."

So you have examined Gallup's polling methodology and found it wanting. Could you please give a statistical analysis showing why their conclusions are invalid?

"equating traditional marriages with deviant marriages..."

OK, let's go for *real* traditional marriages, as when women were the men's property. That's a tradition of literally centuries, rather than this recent "women are equal partners in a marriage". Yeah, right. [Yes, that was sarcasm.]

"demand legal recognition and protection is swinging, then bestiality,..."

Already happened. Who needs consenting adults? Bestiality in private is 100% legal in the Great State of Texas. No, that's not a misprint. That's Texas. As in Texas, United States of America.
