However, you don't hear gay rights activists calling for a change in those federal laws, do you? ‘Cause I sure don't.
Look, I don't care what they call their relationship. I just reserve the right to call it something else. They want to say that they are married, I don't care. But I never will. And a libertarian ought to be willing to back that right.
In the meantime, you haven't addressed the agenda, which is to force society to recognize homosexuals as normal instead of the sick and sinful people that they are. (Not that we all aren't sinful in some fashion or other).
But, on a lighter subject: 2 of the liberal coalition groups are the sexual libertines on various sorts and the animal rights groups. Just yesterday I read an article
about erotic zoos for “animal-lovers” of a different sort. I wonder what the PETA position is. For that matter, what is the libertarian position, although I'd be willing to guess.
You don’t have to back it or like it at all, and I don’t think homosexuals should get any special rights, I also don’t believe anyone should be forced to cater to them.
My whole point is that we shouldn’t write laws that prevent 2 consenting adults from doing as they please together behind closed doors.
You don’t have to call it marriage if you don’t want or even accept it no matter what the name, I support that right.
As for a business, they shouldn’t have to offer benefits to a gay couple if it violates their religious beliefs, no one should have to preform any actions that violate their beliefs, no matter the religion.
Having to offer benefits and various tax exemptions for married couples that gays would have if they are allowed to marry shouldn’t be a deciding factor in the discussion because those are forced under federal laws that shouldn’t exist to begin with, to include the tax code.
I also don’t support the militant in your face gay community, I don’t want to see straight couples making out and getting frisky in front of children any more than gay couples, it’s all the same to me, that’s private behind closed doors activity and should remain that way.
I missed the secondary portion of your post, as for the whole animal thing, Libertarians as a whole are against that also.
An animal can not make an informed decision, that’s just out and out animal abuse and should remain illegal.
