Well, I do thank you for the detailed response. I won't respond in kind, but will focus on a few points. "the whole point you don't seem to get is, society cannot force someone who is single to not have a baby. just the same, society cannot force homos to refrain from their blasphemous behavior" I think I see the problem. You are personally opposed to homosexuality, obviously, and it seems to be causing you to build an argument that society must oppose it. Your disdain, possibly even hatred, for homosexuals is clouding your logic. You consistently argue for upholding the rights of individuals, except homosexuals. Your argument boils down to non-acceptance by the majority. The Constitution was specifically designed to prevent this type of argument. The beauty of our three-tiered system of government is that there is a judicial system that specifially prevents what you are trying to accomplish: the removal of rights from a specific minority. Equating pedophiles and homosexuals is a weak non-argument. More pedophiles are heterosexual than homosexual. Pedophilia is definitely a victim crime, whereas homosexuality is mutually consenting. Comparing the two is like comparing sex and rape. Yes, liberals have accomplished a lot in the past decades. We are proud of that record of improving the standard of living, despite the opposition of various hate groups. We will not rest until all legitimate minorities enjoy the same set of rights as the majority.
