So, basically you think that the gays are going to make all the good god-fearing Conservative men divorce their wives and marry other men? Because otherwise I don't see how it's being "shoved" down our throats. Like all interest groups, gay people are advocating for what they want.

Hmmm, let's see....

By showing up in our schools and demanding that they teach their sick lifestyle to other people's kids.

By infiltrating our churches and synagogues and insisting that established teaching be altered--and by raping our young men in the case of the Catholic Church and others.

By insisting that my tax dollars go to pay for illnesses they contracted doing what comes unnaturally to them.

By changing established law and tradition--and not legislatively, mind you, but by means of judicial tyranny--to suit their own selfish interests.

I call that "shoving down our throats."

To them I say: "Stop trying to impose your immorality on the vast majority of society that wants nothing to do with your repulsive acts."

"By showing up in our schools and demanding that they teach their sick lifestyle to other people's kids."

My mom's a teacher, so I know that most schools are very sensitive to the wishes of the parents. I very much doubt that a majority of the schools would force that on five year olds.

"By infiltrating our churches and synagogues and insisting that established teaching be altered--and by raping our young men in the case of the Catholic Church and others."

A. First, the fact that you think that all gay people are sexual predators is offensive.

B. There's no more sexual predators in the Catholic Church than there are high school teachers that sleep with their students. The reason why the Church got in trouble was because the bishops decided to sweep the abuse under the rug rather than notifying the proper authorities.

"By insisting that my tax dollars go to pay for illnesses they contracted doing what comes unnaturally to them."

There's many gay people in committed relationships that don't contract HIV, and there's many straight people who engage in risky sexual behavior or use intravenous drugs that do. HIV/ AIDS is probably the biggest threat to Sub-Saharan Africa, Southeast Asia (Thailand), and East Europe/ Russia, and that's due to risky heterosexual behavior (especially prostitution).

"By changing established law and tradition--and not legislatively, mind you, but by means of judicial tyranny--to suit their own selfish interests."

Frankly, I'd prefer that everyone worked through legislation and referendum and am concerned that legalizing gay marriage on "equality" grounds would lead to the legalization of actual offensive lifestyles, such as polygamy. However, conservative pressure groups use the Courts to their end, so I don't see why liberal pressure groups cannot do the same.

"To them I say: "Stop trying to impose your immorality on the vast majority of society that wants nothing to do with your repulsive acts.""

Most gays just want to be left alone to live with their partner; they aren't looking for converts.
