So you can’t provide ANY links to ANY posts I’ve made supporting homosexuals in the military and you refuse to admit it. Of course that is what everyone here has come to expect from you. If you can’t cut and paste some canned answer from another website, you just make sh*t up. Go away, little girl...you bother me.

OK let’s just go back to post 325 which set you off in such a way that your responses were repeatedly removed.

Why did it start such a reaction from you, why not just ignore it or make some rational comment, you had brought up the Log Cabin republicans, and I posted this.

To: Orangedog
Log Cabin republicans promote an anti-conservative, libertarian view on homosexual issues.

Libertarian position on personal relationships.
“Sexual orientation, preference, gender, or gender identity should have no impact on the government’s treatment of individuals, such as in current marriage, child custody, adoption, immigration or military service laws.’

A law should either be enforced, or repealed. Bad laws (such as the one proposed) are examples of the latter.

A good writeup on the actual state of "traditional" society:
It was fascinating to witness the shock on the Internet among theonomists and some Neo-Cals over a suggestion I made a few years ago that as a political libertarian I leaned toward the government not seeking to punish sexual perversity such as adultery, homosexuality or bestiality; that some things are better left to God to judge. My point was simply to say there is freedom for Christians to disagree on how government should enforce against these types of perversions.

When one does a little research one learns that Americans have always sought criminal enforcement when human beings are physically harmed or forced against their consent to engage in sexual related activities. But in matters of adultery, fornication, homosexuality and bestiality, that has not been the case.

Often conservatives lament how far we’ve come from the time in America when sins like sodomy and the like carried swift penalties, even the death penalty. But a look at the actually history paints a very different picture. Though laws in the colonies usually did prohibit perversions like sodomy and bestiality, rarely were these laws enforced. It seems in the U.S. there has been a libertarian zeitgeist when it comes to sexual matters; though these sexually-related sins remained on the books for a few centuries, and in some states they still remain, they were rarely, if ever, enforced.

Historians can only find five to ten instances of executions for sodomy or bestiality throughout the entire seventeenth century in the Untied States, even though the penalty for both was often death. And it was not because townspeople were unaware that there were men sleeping with other men, or being perverse with animals; the literature shows the people of a town knew something fishy was going on between Frank and Henry. But both government authorities and local people were more content to gossip about it than seek to enforce any civil penalties.

Americans in the 18th century were even less likely to enforce sodomy laws. I could find only one known case during the entire 18th century of death for sodomy – a slave named Mingo was convicted of “forcible buggery.”...

(Emphasis added -- it's easier to read and take that bit to heart than to have all your outfits altered to accomodate a lightning rod.)

Tell ya what, jack, I’ll send her your way. And, when she’s done with you we’ll all have a good laugh - well, everyone but you, that is.

What an irrelevant post.

You need to come up with better arguments to promote the left’s/libertarian’s agenda to homosexualize the military, immigration and marriage and abortion, and open borders, etc.
