I have heard that ad naseum.....homosexual marriage will make it easier for homosexuals to adopt children....and homosexuals are more likely to be sexually abusive. As for the misery, my guess is that homosexual marriage can be a pain in the butt.....

So you are saying that you are physically capable of becoming sexually aroused by and attracted to men if you simply put your mind to it? This seems unlikely.

General public opinion througout the United States is reflected, for example, in the prevalence of local laws making it illegal for schools to discriminate against gays in hiring teachers, and in the BSA's loss of favor with the general public. The legislative process is of course the classic venue where links such as tooblue has asserted are investigated, debated, and vetted, with the most real life consequences possible. The prevelance of local civil rights laws protecting gays' access to jobs where they interface with children is a testament to informed public opinion on this issue.

What does it mean to say homosexuality is a choice? Do you mean there are no factors at play other than our own decision? If so, I disagree. Do you mean biology doesn't mean anything? I disagree. Do you mean choice as a result of sexual abuse? I don't call that choice. Just trying to figure out what you are talking about here. |

Abusers don't just happen they are created. Ergo the heterosexual commiting the abuse was in fact a victim of abuse in his/her childhood.

I don't agree with your causality argument. You use the argument that the laws expressing or making it illegal to discriminate against gays show prevailing public sentiment, when other explanations could also support the existence of those laws. In my mind, it is more that the gay community is more active and therefore cause politicians to react to their activism, couple that with the popular media sharing the perspectives of the gay activist groups and you'll see laws enacted accordingly. The ignorant masses often just sit on their hands and might not care.

However political correctness stunts correlative studies for fear that one group will be targeted and discriminated against as evidence is discovered. |
