Hate the sin but love the person...except when voting?

What the Hell has homosexuality got to do with bestiality or paedophilia?

ROFLOMG you religious gay haters are totally insane.Edited by frako, : No reason given.

I don't trust even for one second this horsecrap about homosexual animals. A picture of a couple birds with ruffled feathers doesn't prove a single thing. I noticed the article said this type of behavior wasn't even acknowledged before the 90s. This is a major red flag all by its self for me.
You go right ahead and believe it but I know the real explanation is something other than homosexual animals.Besides all that I have had special bonds that are unexplainable with other men that had nothing to do whatsoever with a sexual connection. There are lots of different explanations for lots of different things going on around this planet.I stand behind everything I said in my previous post,

Homosexuality is NOT the issue or even related to the topic. We are discussing the legal contract referred to as marriage.You need to provide a reason that is NOT related to your religious beliefs.Do you understand basic US laws?I'll repeat some basics for you.

Fortunately, not in the US. In the US there must be a clear secular reason for any law, and sin don't just cut it.

​

1. The government's action must have a secular legislative purpose;
2. The government's action must not have the primary effect of either advancing or inhibiting religion;
3. The government's action must not result in an "excessive government entanglement" with religion.

​

Note the first item. If it fails that it is out.

​

You need to show why the legal contract referred to as marriage should be denied one subgroup of citizens.

What is the clear secular reason why the legal contract referred to as marriage should be denied one subgroup of citizens?Remember homosexuality is NOT relevant, perversion is not relevant, sin is not relevant; we are only talking about denying the legal contract referred to as marriage to one subgroup of citizens?

Which makes me view ICD's comment in a whole different light... I am now unable to think of a 'special bond' that is 'unexplainable' that doesn't include touching.
Seriously - what would be an 'unexplainable special bond'?

I don't know whether to laugh or cry.You've never seen a male dog mount another male dog? Have you ever lived on a farm? Male geese and ducks often bond; I've watched a local reservoir for years, partly because it is ruled by a homosexual pair of China White geese.The evidence for wide-ranging homosexuality in the animal kingdom is overwhelming. If they were unexplainable, how do you know there was no sexual connection?Or maybe you just have no idea of the wealth of evidence about animal homosexuality (both male and female, by the way). I'd tell you to google animal homosexuality, but you won't: ignoring evidence is how you maintain your iron-clad denial.So instead, go take a look--go see a dog breeder, and ask. Go to the zoo, and ask the penquin keeper.You should get out more.

That special bond is what we're trying to protect.

And i had a gay dogmy guess is you do not go out much

You should quit trying to act like you understand the bible because you obviously don't have the slightest clue how to interpret scripture. I hear you flapping your lips all over the place about what the bible doesn't mean but never explaining what it does mean. show me where I said acts were named You are 100% wrong. ...Oh that's right. Crashfrog said it so that makes it true. I forgot that principle. I thought you understood the bible? The bible clearly states no sinner will enter heaven yet people do go to heaven, so how can that be? Show me where it says these sins are not specifically disqualifying for heaven Look at the account of the rich man in Mark 10:21-27.....They were even more astonished and said to him "then who can be saved?" ..."With people it is impossible, but not with God; for all things are possible."
Does it sound like Jesus is saying rich people are barred from heaven to you? Yes this is having it both ways. You said not being Christlike will disqualify you. How is that not earning?
You make Clinton look like an honest man.IC

I have a picture of a moose humping a buffalo statue that I can't figure how to transfer to here.
Would that be statuetory rape or a moosedemeanor?
I have dogs hump my leg all the time. Is that humanallity?Animals have instinct driven impulses that they aren't sure how to express when the urges are powerful. To associate this drive with human homosexuality is a mistake in my opinion.Edited by ICdesign, : No reason given.

Then no perverts should be allowed to marry?
