If I got this straight, you view that your will is the same as the 'will of the people' and if you disagree with something you dismiss it and state that it cannot be the "will of the people".

If so, that's arrogant on your part.

On the issue of opposing the homosexualization of society -more specifically not regognizing the new attemped innovation of homosexual 'marriage' -anyone including the judges that ignore the will of the people are the arrogant ones. The position that supports the homosexualization of society is the 'arrogant' position and happens to be a liberal position not welcome on FR:

What Free Republic is all about:

Statement by the founder of Free Republic

As a conservative site, Free Republic is pro-God, pro-life, pro-family, pro-Constitution, pro-Bill of Rights, pro-gun, pro-limited government, pro-private property rights, pro-limited taxes, pro-capitalism, pro-national defense, pro-freedom, and-pro America. We oppose all forms of liberalism, socialism, fascism, pacifism, totalitarianism, anarchism, government enforced atheism, abortionism, feminism, homosexualism, racism, wacko environmentalism, judicial activism, etc. We also oppose the United Nations or any other world government body that may attempt to impose its will or rule over our sovereign nation and sovereign people. We believe in defending our borders, our constitution and our national sovereignty.

Free Republic is private property. It is not a government project, nor is it funded by government or taxpayer money. We are not a publicly owned entity nor are we an IRS tax-free non-profit organization. We pay all applicable taxes on our income. We are not connected to or funded by any political party, news agency, or any other entity. We sell no merchandise, product or service, and we offer no subscriptions or paid memberships. We accept no paid advertising or promotions. We are funded solely by donations (non tax deductible gifts) from our readers and participants.

We aggressively defend our God-given and first amendment guaranteed rights to free speech, free press, free religion, and freedom of association, as well as our constitutional right to control the use and content of our own personal private property. Despite the wailing of the liberal trolls and other doom & gloom naysayers, we feel no compelling need to allow them a platform to promote their repugnant and obnoxious propaganda from our forum. Free Republic is not a liberal debating society. We are conservative activists dedicated to defending our rights, defending our constitution, defending our republic and defending our traditional American way of life.

What again is your position?

If I may. I've been conservative since I was 18 and started with Barry Goldwater and William Buckley.

Adults have the right to have sex with each other if both give consent.

People should not go to jail for having sex that offends others religious beliefs or because they think it's icky.

When the government gets involved in honoring contracts or bestowing benefits based upon being married, it should honor the contract between adults regardless of homo or hetero status. The government is not here to enforce religious beliefs or impose sexual morality upon the citizenery.

Two men or women marrying each other does not effect my marriage or morals one iota.

People have the right to select the marriage partner of their choice, as long as both are of legal age to enter into a contract or it does no physical harm to others.

Some people here are so hateful of homosexuality they lump any good for homosexuals under an agenda which was written by some extremist. If you say anything that isn't negative then they label you "pro-agenda." This is a sophomoric propaganda technique. There is a world of difference between NAMBLA and gay marriage. But those who are malicious or lazy just go for the agenda slur.

JR doesn't like homosexualism, whatever that is, but the rights of people apply wheteher or not they are homosexual. Some of these issues need to be taken issue by issue and not painted with a broad brush.
