Indiana's Govenor Signs 'Religious Freedom' Bill

Even if you insist that it's a choice, so what? What does it matter?

Homosexuality isn't equivalent to heterosexuality.....not the way races are equivalent.  This is trivially easy to show by way of thought experiment.  Suppose one day every human being on the planet woke up to discover that some unknown force made them all homosexuals. Such an event would be utterly devastating to humanity.  

Now suppose one day every human being on the planet woke up to discover that some unknown force made them all heterosexual.  Such an event would probably have no negative effect at all on humanity.  If it did have some negative effect, it would be inconsequential.  The same is true if everyone woke up to find they had been transformed into African Americans or Hispanics or Asians.  Such transformations would have little impact on humanity.

If homosexuality and heterosexuality are not equivalent, then one is superior than the other.  Theists have decided that heterosexuality is superior and thus they do not like the ideal of homosexuality being artificially elevated to the same stature.
