I'm inclined to agree. The homosexual activists were on their most defensible ground when they said "This is a private matter keep your nose out of our bedroom. It's none of your business."

But they stopped saying that about 40 years ago. Now it's all a drive for public affirmation, public funding to pay for manipulating public opinion (e.g through the public schools), and public systems of reward and incentives for same-sex couples (e.g. a parody of marriage), coupled with public penalties for those who resist (e.g. the too-many-to-list coercions and lawsuits against those who "discriminate".)

What a relief it would be, if we could say, "Quite. Right. Your own private matter. Now leave the rest of us alone."

Bingo, there’s nothing normal about it and this is a slippery slope.

Who’s to say a man in love with his oak tree doesn’t have rights to marry another living thing? And get you know, tax rights and lower health care costs, etc. etc. etc.

After all he has to support his spouse by bringing home fertilizer, bring the tree with him to the next house...water...hell even insurance and funeral costs!

People, liberal madness is open-ended!

The homosexual activists were on their most defensible ground when they said "This is a private matter keep your nose out of our bedroom. It's none of your business."

Then they should keep their bedroom out of public life and out of the government.

If it's not my business, why am I being forced to confront it and demanded that I accept it?
