Sorry, it’s not a logical extension. By your reasoning, we couldn’t “oppress” thieves and murderers either.
What distinguishes queers and mormons from, say, pedophiles, islamofascist-goathumpers, mashers, and muggers, is that in the former, consent is freely given between adult parties. In the latter, consent is lacking by at least one party, that is, a party to the act is being victimized, beit the underaged, the goat, the raped,or the person robbed.
Now in the latter, the civil rights of the victims has been abused, and in the case of the goat, well, that’s just animal cruelty. The perpetrators are open
game for “oppression” by state, and rightly so.
Take it up with the one who wants gays to marry.
Sandy01 said that not letting them marry is oppressing gays.
Following that to its logical end, you would have to allow people to marry their pets or multipple eives and husbands.
Following your previous example of consenting adults, you’d have to allow for bigamy and polygamy.
Homosexuals are not being denied their rights. They have the SAME rights that I do, to marry anyone of the opposite sex. What they want are SPECIAL rights based on a behavior. That’s not a civil rights claim.
