David: I apologize for assuming you might not be Christian. My point was to say that this is not just an issue between the Church and gay community. I have seen comments made by people of other faiths and those with no faith. One just needs to look at any article about the "gay agenda" to see this.

QD and david nailed the point I have been trying to make all along. There is no fact or conclusive evidence that one is born gay. So why does the gay community "preach" that it is fact and that they have no more choice over their sexual orientation that their skin color? QD said it best, " you can't teach something that isn't known".

Sure gays get ridiculed and mocked. So do those with faith or overweight people. But the gay community can not compare their "struggle" to the civil rights movement. They are on different levels and and degrees. No one is taking any civil rights from them. Marriage is not a civil right Guaranteed in the constitution. Therefore, every gay individual is given every single right that a heterosexual individual gets. They are 100% equal in terms of legality. I would like to point out what happened in California. The issue was put to vote and the people voted to ban gay marriage. This judge Vaughn Walker comes in and overturns it. Is it not the duty of the courts to judge on legality rather than personal morals or political views? How can he take away the voice of those who voted on it. That would be like tossing out the elections this year and keeping Obama in office simply because some might vote against him because he is black. Since when does the vote, voice and opinion of the American people get disregarded like it is meaningless? You can not push the agenda of a minority on the majority. Put it on ballet in every state and let the people speak. If it passes it passes, if it doesn't it doesn't. Then the true opinion of this nation will be known. Like what happened in NC, the people spoke and now the gays are having a hissy fit. Get over it. This is not a civil rights issue, as no civil rights under the law of the land are being taken. This is a personal choice issue. What's next, protesting and suing religious institutions for not placing gays in the roles of leadership?
