So, your response to an accusation of ignorance is to display even more ignorance? The changes in laws to allow for gay marriages have come primarily through litigation, then legislation and then popular vote. The LGBT community doesn't need to initiate a popular vote movement because challenging the law via litigation is a much better option - which is why it rarely does so. Its the Christian community that tries to change the laws by appealing to public opinion.

Everything you just described is by vote and yes they do appeal to the populace, if they did not they would never get it legalized, the Christian community is voting it's belief a right established over 200 years ago.
You can bet the Christian community did not push this agenda, so who's left, homosexuals.

Quote:The right to stand for or against it shouldn't be available to anyone - that's what I've been trying to say. We don't argue over whether we stand for or against heterosexual marriage or someone's right to work. The question of whether or not to allow it shouldn't come up at all - it should be allowed, period.

Are you crazy people have the right to stand for whatever they want. You in this statement are disallowing homosexuals the right to pursue marriage. The last part of your statement is completely opinion, which is fine, but you will find many who do not agree with you.

Bigotry contains and as I've stated in these discussions I do not hate gays, so you can come off your attitude for what I see as unnatural.

Quote:Where the issue in question is civil liberties - yes, I would.

So you're a socialist, one who would dictate to people what is right and wrong regardless of how the people feel, this is America and we decide by the vote.

He did not reply or refute. Anyway, that unnatural argument needs to stop, it's almost on par with the ignorance that is creationism and is blatantly dishonest when you're using a freaking computer to access a forum on the internet.

Sorry but that's is a very stupid statement at the least, and yes homosexuality is unnatural.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
