Another good post with food to boot.

--Re: "homosexual agenda" - some (maybe most?) homosexuals do want to be able to marry. I think for the most part this is being driven by AIDS, and the desire to be able to obtain low cost health insurance as a "spouse." --

Isn't that sorta cheating? If you need spousal insurance your either don't work (begging the question why?) or have not got your own suffician insurance (again, why?)

Even if both spouses work, in my experience most couples only carry one insurance policy, because health insurance isn't free.

For example, my husband works for the federal government. He has great health insurance, and the government pays half the premium. I am self-employed. To get the same coverage would cost hundreds more a month. I'd be crazy to do that.

This is where it gets ugly folks, I personally don't give a rip what consenting adults do in thier own bedroom...until it costs me money.And when gay "spouses" or partners or whatever they choose to call themselfs get the same rights as hetro couples without paying the same dues it's going to put a hurt on the economy.
