I'm not certain where the state's interests begin and where the individual's end when living in a supposedly free society.

It's one thing if homosexuals want to do what they want to do privately. But what they want (and anyone who doesn't admit this has their eyes closed very very tightly) is to promote and publicize and convince skulls full of mush of the attractions they offer. That is where their freedom ends and encroaches on others' freedom. If they kept their sodomy private no one would give a damn. They don't want it private.

And here's the reason. They wrongly think they feel bad about themselves because all of normal society is saying how evil their deeds are. They think that if only everyone would fawn over them and tell them how wonderful their evil deeds are, then they can feel good about themselves. But their self-loathing does not come from people telling them their deeds are wrong. It comes from within their own consciences. So even if they can force everyone to accept their evil deeds and tell them how wonderful they are, they would still be unhappy, miserable people.

I agree. But when the outcome is much mayhem and death should we still be concerned? What about the State? From the article, I doubt privacy is as important as the liberty being exercised in determining the legitimatcy of any act and specifically, acts that don't 'harm' others in some deliberate manner.
