Hitler tried to amend the Weimar Constitution to persecute Jews???
Wow. Revisionism reaches new heights!

Homosexuals are being treated -- by Christians -- just as Hitler treated Jews.Think about it.
Really? We're rounding up homosexuals and putting them in concentration camps??? We're exterminating homosexuals???
Don't you EVER, EVER dare to compare your "imagined" pain of discrimination to real discrimination that really happened in Hilter's Germany.
Its this kind of unsubstantiated hysterical outburst from the "love that dare not speak its name" crowd that begs me to say: "when the hell will you shutup?"
To: thinktwice
You made the assertion pal. The assertion is that American Christians are treating homosexuals like the NAzis treated the Jews and all that implies.
It is you who needs to engage your brain before you put words to window.
Defend it or withdraw it, the choice is yours.

"natural human sexuality is not one of them"
Homosexuality in not natural
. "Homosexuals are being treated -- by Christians -- just as Hitler treated Jews."
I'm sure some of Jewish brethern may take exception to this statement.
"Think about it".
I've thought about it. You may need help:)

Bloody hell, don't these people have something better to do? Beside wasting our tax dollars on entitlements, that is.

What people? Homosexuals forcing our society to pay for aids research disproportionate to the threat? Is that what you mean?

Bologna.
Homosexuals are in many ways seeking status as prividleged group under the guise of a victim. Meanwhile, Christians are being told they can't wear crosses to work and Judeo-Christian culture is being attacked by the ACLU on a daily basis. Who's the victim?
This amendment is not an attack on homosexuals. Nothing about it says you can't live your life the way you want. It merely defines marriage as what it has always been, a union between 1 man and 1 woman. Homosexuals are trying to legitimize their unions and force them to be acceptable to the next generation. And, including homosexuality under natural sexuality is not a given either.

Such a statement is perverted, no pun intended.
Think about it.

What people? The trained monkeys in Congress. Who else? When they aren't spending money like drunken sailors, they are wasting air on pointless crap like this.

I thought about it ... and then came to the conclusion that anyone who would suggest such a thing ... is on the wrong web site

a constitutional amendment is the only way to protect the institution of marriage from courts that go beyond their constitutional mandates. Ok, I know I am going to catch hell for this, but I believe that this is in fact overstepping the authority of the government.
Each Church should decide if they want to allow marriages of couples of the same sex. That is not the responsibility of the government.
Then, the laws should be re-written in such a way that there is no reward or penalty to people who are either married or not married.
The government should not be encroaching upon the rights of individuals to live as they choose. (Yes, I know, they do that a lot anyway. And when they do, it is also wrong).
Yes, I also know that marriages do not require a church or Church representative to perform them in order to be valid. Maybe that is where the answer lies:
Marriage = Holy Matrimony = Church blessed
License of Domestic Partnership = non Marriage = non church = same legal protections.

The whole problem with your homosexual/Jews analogy is this...
Jews did nothing to rip the fabric of society and batter the foundations on which society is based. THEY were the victims, selected for extermination based solely on one mans hatred.
Homosexuals, on the other hand, wish to change a major keystone of civilization, merely to forward their own sexual 'preference'.
The two are not comparable.
Think about it!

"they are wasting air on pointless crap like this."
First, I like your tag line. One of the best moments in Blade Runner, bar none.
Second, you're wrong on this one. We're fighting two battles: the first against terrorism; the second, the attack on our culture.

"Think about it." God thought about it.
His decision is good enough for me.

"Ok, I know I am going to catch hell for this, but I believe that this is in fact overstepping the authority of the government"
If the judiciary had not over stepped its bounds, as it recently did in the Mass ruling, I would tend to agree. But the fact is, only by ammending the constitution can we put the judicial system in its place.

That Sir is EXACTLY right ... and in my opinion ... it is the later war which is the more dangerous to our Republic
