To Freepers:

I need to ask a question. But before I do, let me say that I'm a straight, young, conservative... (not that any of that should matter but I am sure it will come up)

After reading some posts on this board it seems as though some of you are scared of gays. My opinion follows. Who cares if they marry? Who cares if they have sex? I've never befriended a gay person and I probably never will. I don't think it has anything to do with subconcious bigotry...I just don't have anything in common with them. How does it affect you if a gay person gets married?

Thanks, I had to ask.

ARE WE READY FOR GAY AFFIRMATIVE ACTION (to redress past discrimination)? LOOK AT THE SC RULINGS THIS QUARTER AND ARGUE WHY THIS WILL NOT HAPPEN - SOON.

Our schools, workplaces, daycare centers, even churches will be targets. It's going off.

I am the others here are not "afraid" of homsexuals. And we do not call them "gay" because they are not happy, joyful, or carefree. They have stolen a useful word and made it mean disgusting "sex" acts.

My opinion follows. Who cares if they marry?

Most of them don't even want to marry, lesbians consider it a remnant of evil patriarchy and male homosexuals are in general so wildly promosicuous that monogomamy has no meaning. They just want to declare war on the natural order.

Who cares if they have sex?

I don't believe many Freepers want cops searching peoples' private homes to see if people are practicing sodomy or not. What I object to is the normalization of deviancy. Beucase homosexuals' sex appetites are voracious, they have "taken over" so many parks and beaches in their prowling for anonymous "partners". And the AIDS and other diseases they get have to paid for by MY tax money. And now children in schools are being taught the "how-tos".

I've never befriended a gay person and I probably never will. I don't think it has anything to do with subconcious bigotry...

I have two homosexual-identified people in my family. And some rabid homo-supporters. I am very familiar with them. They are angry, lost people. They generally need some kind of medication to get through their lives, to not hear the voice in their hearts telling them they are doing the wrong thing.

I just don't have anything in common with them.

Actually, they so identify with their sexual urges that they make you think that. They keep their sex desires in the forefront of their lives. But inside, they want happiness just as everyone does. They have God in their hearts as everyone does. That is why there are many former homosexuals.

How does it affect you if a gay person gets married?

Even though they are only about 2% of the population, they want to force their against-nature sex acts in everyone's face. If you read much about the SCOTUS decision, they even admit that they now want to oppress the normal majority more and more. It opens the doors to every other unnatural, immoral sex act or "relationship" - are you aware of how many professors and psychologists are pushing adult/child sex as the new frontier? What about brother and sister? Or brother and brother? If there are no moral absolutes (which is what they are saying) where do you draw the line?

To me, gay marriage completely nullifies the sanctity of marriage in the eyes of God and society. Marriage is a holy and legally binding institution for a man and a woman to share as partners for life and to procreate.

And the last time I checked, gays don't procreate. Although they are quite skilled at spreading AIDS.

I take it you are not a religeous person, follow no particular norms in that regard ...

[Rummyfan]

Because it will be the starting point to a complete redefinition of marrige: first marriage for same sex couples, then marriage for threesomes, foursomes, fivesomes, man and beast, woman and beast, etc. The basic meaning of marriage will be destroyed, along with the family.

It doesn't, but the haters will never admit this.

Personally, I think the fixation some self-styled Christians have with other people's sexual habits is unwholesome. We should pass a statute to keep them away from the children.

Actually I half way agree with you. Fact is they will die off (this too shall pass.) However, in the mean time, they will tear many who are weak in their faith from the whisperings of their heart. Undermining the moral order has consequences, condoning sin has consequences.

I am not afraid of those consequences, me and mine are safe. I am afraid for others, weaker, who watch too much TV or who will otherwise become exposed to deviancy and find it attractive, painted to be attractive and fall.

Out of love, we must try to prevent this.

You seem to be under the impression that a decline in morality has no detrimental affect on society as a whole.

Perhaps you would like to explain yourself. Im sure all of us here would like to hear you explain how a decline in morality better serves a civilized society.

[Republican Wildcat]

Would you care to explain how two people of the same-sex can join as husband and wife?

They are trying to intrude on an institution by which they have no basis in which to join. They claim to want to be "left alone", yet want to nose their way into that institution and change its very definition.

I'm not sure what you mean by "care"--whether you meant what we think the law should be, or a general concern for fellow human beings.
