Don't worry Trake, if you live in the US you're safe* from pro traditional family legislation for now.
*If you engage in homosex, you're likely to become infected with numerous STD's and engage in other destructive behaviors (excessive smoking, alcoholism, drug use, etc.), so you're far from being safe.
It's not persecution when people mock you for trying to take other people's rights away from them.
Stay up with the times Trake: people of faith, and even those who aren't Believers have been fired from their jobs and persecuted in many other ways for standing up and stating that homosexuality goes against their core faith values or that it's plain and simply "disgusting".
If we voted on whether you have the right to marry, would that be a violation of your rights? If I was pushing to make it illegal for you to marry, people would call me an insane bigot trying to deny people their rights.
You need to understand one very important thing here Trake: Sexual perversion is not a "right". Neither God gave people the "right" to engage in sexual perversion nor did our predominately Christian Founding Fathers in their God-based documents.
Now if you want to talk about the Supreme Court, the same court that says that murdering unborn babies is a "right" (it's a right to privacy thing with them), then that's different. Because secular humanist man says that buggery, abortion and other abhorrent acts is some kind or "right", doesn't necessarily make it so.
Yes, there are countries that hate gay people. There's Iran, Pakistan and Uganda for examples. I wouldn't call these countries roll models.
The first two are Muslim countries where repentance of sinful behavior and redemption are not part of their hateful religion. Uganda on the other hand is a Christian country that wisely recriminalized homosexuality because of amongst other things, the amount of foreign homosexual pedophiles and pederasts that were coming to their country and raping their little boys.
The US will someday recriminalize homosexuality and get those poor pathetic lost souls the help that they so desperately want and need.
You do realize that not all gay people have stds and that correlation and causation aren't the same thing, right?
Many practicing homosexuals don't know that they have things such as HIV (check out CDC reports on the amount of homosexuals who are unaware of their HIV status). It's inherently a disease ridden lifestyle and for those that haven't or don't currently have STD's there is one word for them:
Lucky.
I mean, gay sex doesn't cause people to drink. Also, straight sex can cause stds. Of course that whole argument is a red herring isn't it? I mean, stds isn't really the reason you want gay marriage to be illegal is it?
Besides being a party-like culture and lifestyle, those who engage in the changeable behavior known as homosexuality are covering up many things that have happened in their lives (childhood rape, abusive or distant/unloving father, etc.) with drugs and alcohol, knowing what they're doing is inherently wrong.
No, it's because you want a theocracy.
I can't force you to believe in God and to accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, but people who believe in decency can legislate righteous laws that will help morally confused people like you get the help that you so desperately want and need.
Please come visit the "Why Homosexuality MUST Be Recriminalized! Part 4" thread when I start it in mid to late August and in the meantime review Part 3 to see how ignorant that you are on the subject.
