"Judge Anthony Kennedy, in the majority opinion, said the Texas anti-sodomy law “demeans the lives of homosexual persons.” I would submit that the behavior of homosexual persons is what demeans them."

Bingo.

[Arthur McGowan]

People write countless articles screeching that the Supreme Court has abandoned its "constitutional" role of interpreting the Constitution. But the Constitution does not say that the Supreme Court is the supreme authority in the U.S. The Supreme Court is supreme over all other courts. It is not supreme over the executive, or the legislature, or the country. It has usurped most of the "power" it now wields. What's sad is that the vast majority of "conservative" commentators accept this usurpation, and complain only when a decision goes the wrong way.

"I would suspect polygamy, bestiality, pedophilia, and a host of other perversions might be viewed in a new legal light, as well."

Bingo.

I believe the gays are only the shock troops in a war for what I call a 'licentious society' where literally everything is permissible. Eventually the necrophiles will demand equal rights, followed by the beastialists and eventually the pedophiles.

I told this to a colleague and he argued loudly against my position.

Then I showed him an article about the 'Statement of Tolerance' at Amherst, which said that there would be no discrimination based on 'sexual preference.'

Someone innocently asked if pedophilia was a "sexual preference", and was answered pedantically as if he were himself a child. "Of course it is. Can't you read?" or something similar.

The news got out to the community which converged on the campus with pitchforks and torches (figuratively, alas) and the "Statement of Tolerance" was quickly withdrawn and modified.

"OK, I see what you mean," said my friend.
