When all else fails, take the discussion off into left field.
no, when all else fails.... go back to the usual bigot tactic
where those that are the focus of bigotry are seen as not human
Here we see gay and lesbians compared to horses
we can see this tactic from time immemorial...
Jews are Rats (Nazis)
Black People are Monkeys (King Kong) or subhumans
etc etc
If in doubt, the bigot compares animals to people
because in their mind, the focus of their bigotry are not human.
Of course the right wing christian assumes if same sex marriage occurs, then people will want to marry their pet dog...again assuming that homosexuals are caninines and not people.... this sentiment is shared by many same sex marriage opposers.
Its the same tired, small of thought bigotry that has been perpetuated for centuries.
It is not off on left field, its hatred, pure and simple
"The Jews are undoubtedly a race, but they are not human"

Yep and when miscegenation was happening people where saying it would lead to homosexual marriages. The more things change...
I'd really like to know if littlenipper is a "Quiverfull" because it would explain so much.

Both and neither.
Can Christian extremists think?
This is a very black and white picture of sexuality that does not have much with reality to do.
And there are many kids who are orphans as the result of other issues as well.

One thing I wonder about posters like LittleNipper is whether they are really stealth atheists trying to drive people away from Christianity by posing as the biggest possible jerks under the guise of their religion.
I take it you haven't adopted any needy chidren, LittleNipper?
If I may ask, what do you think?
Interesting question, but it does unfortunatly not have anything to do with anything.

Please tell me why Christians Get to define marriage. There are ancient Hindu texts that talk about Gay marriage. This has changed due to invasion of the Monotheist religions of the Indian subcontinent. Many Native American groups that had Gay marriage that was built in to their culture.
You are welcome to your beliefs. I also believe that sects of Christians should have the right not to have homosexual unions in their churches.
Why do you deny our faiths the same rights as you have. Don't we have freedom of religion in he USA?

The sexual act between two men or two women can be as respectful or as abusive as the sexual act between a man and a woman. If it is hetrosexual or not has nothing to do with it, it is what do you that matters.
In which case the term fornication becomes meaningless. And about marriage and "family unity", it is good to have a family. But the traditional model is hardly the only one, and I wouldn´t even say it is any better then the other ones.

Not clearly. That's how you get to be a Christian extremist.

It's not even that traditional. These guys act like social norms that came in with the Industrial Revolution are the law of nature.

Same sex marriage also known in ancient times.Here a quote from Wikipedia:
Various types of same-sex marriages have existed,http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marriage#cite_note-40 ranging from informal, unsanctioned relationships to highly ritualized unions.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marriage#cite_note-41
While it is a relatively new practice that same-sex couples are being granted the same form of legal marital recognition as commonly used by mixed-sex couples, recent publicity and debate over the past decade gives an impression that civil marriage for lesbian and gay couples is novel and untested. There is a long history of recorded same-sex unions around the world.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marriage#cite_note-same_sex_marriage_a09-42 It is believed that same-sex unions were celebrated in Ancient Greece and Rome,http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marriage#cite_note-same_sex_marriage_a09-42 some regions of China, such as Fujian, and at certain times in ancient European history.] A law in the Theodosian Code (C. Th. 9.7.3) issued in AD 342 prohibited same-sex marriage in ancient Rome, but the exact intent of the law and its relation to social practice is unclear, as only a few examples of same-sex marriage in that culture exist.

I think what many people here are failing to understand is that homosexuality is a sin.

No, I think that many people understand that other happen to believe that..

But what you don't realise is that this belief is founded very heavily on the very best of logic.
1. RTP that homosexuality is a sin.
2. The Bible says so, ergo, it must be a sin.
3. Quad erat demonstrandum.
How can this not make sense to you?
