Unfortunately many people see the GLBT movement as a civil rights issue which it is not and /or support for a small sector of society they feel are unfairly and unnecessarily ridiculed . They also add a touch of romanticism to the mix.
Since the beginning of time people understood the differences between heterosexual and homosexual behavior some like the Greeks embraced it but not once in civilization was it suggested that a city-state should legitimize the marriage between two members of the same sex. that is until now.
In the early 1980's homosexual advocates devised a plan to strategically place in front of the population a benign and loving image of two people just trying to make it together in this world. They solicited the usual suspects and lo and behold every movie television show, etc has a gay couple living the American dream raising kids....you get my drift. By repeating this picture often enough and long enough normalized it and then socialized it.
Any objection to this arrangement subjects opponents of being haters, homophobic etc. I object for a number of reasons first and foremost it is going to open up a pandora's box the likes we have never seen. It will have serious social consequences.
I do not believe homosexuals should be discriminated against, or ridiculed but I also do not believe that the definition of marriage should ever be altered.
I am sorry but I do have a problem with a man obsessed about another man's private parts. Nor as it is often claimed do I as a male gain pleasure from witnessing two females entertaining one another. But then my taste might be too traditional for some, perhaps boring.
I do not know what the outcome of the Supreme Court's decision will be in June but I would always defer to state rights on such issues because the federal government when it chooses chooses wrong.
So one can only blink and deflate when you hearing the cheering for Ireland's decision. I also think that something is amiss in that country because I cannot believe the lads actually agree with this and hence some political heavy weights had a hand in this for self interest reasons .
finally there are a number of posters on this forum whom this entire discussion would be lost because they won't stop long enough to think he issue thoroughly through because they are too busy waving the Irish flag
Personal Best Regards:
