"Jesus would rather kill, not marry, gay people" - Franklin Graham

[polymath257]

There is nothing wrong with criticism, and I never said otherwise.  This is about being able to have an honest and civil discussion.  I’m not going to keep fighting against what is only in your imagination, and whatever polemic you ty an twist to gain rhetorical advantage.

Let me put it this way.

Suppose someone claimed that inter-racial marriage isn't a real marriage and that real marriage is limited to those of the same race. Suppose that they point to the historical separation of the races as justified both societally and by religion.

Would you not say this person is a bigot?

The situation with gay marriage is *exactly* the same.
