Ok- I can't speak for the gay agenda- I am sure you have read more than I about it. If they want acceptance and the ability to function within this society without being discriminated against or told that they are tearing apart the nation's moral fabric, that seems to me to be a reasonable goal. If they want universal approval beyond that, they are unrealistic. None of us gets that.

Approval is a funny word. We have a relative who doesn't approve of our lifestyle. She thinks we raised the boys to be little city yuppies. She probably thinks the boys should have been removed and placed with her. Her disapproval doesn't bother me at all, but had she taken action to make yuppieparenting illegal, I would be most upset.

I am really not taking a stand here- I don't believe that everything should automatically be allowed. I think that the implications for society should be of some consideration. I just don't want to confuse honest examination with prejudice-- there ought to be some pretty strong reasons behind denying inclusion.
