You have disagreed with the Supreme Court and the law of the land in your declaration No i'm quoting the Supreme Court, marriage is a basic civil right of man. I agree with that wholeheartedly. It has already been demonstrated for you that gays are not discriminated against Asserting something is not the same as demonstrating it. Straights have the right to define their culture for themselves and for purposes of posterity as they like. Straights have married, and produced core families with a set of cultural values that builds community and a particular type of society. You have not recognized their right to define/classify themselves as different than other cultures founded upon carnal materialism. Until you do, they will see your attempts to define sameness as an attempt to make one culture and the other the same. They are not the same, 'the one that is fed' will survive, as they say...and this is the source of conflict. This is nothing but bigotry. All men are created equal with certain unalienable rights. Nobody gets to define those rights for anybody else. No civil rights are being violated. The California and Massachusetts Supreme courts have ruled otherwise, so have several other nations. We weren't the first country to acknowledge and protect the full civil rights of blacks or women, and we won't be the first for homosexuals. But that's where we're heading... Your bigotry of heterosexual superiority will fade away with time. SD
