I've come to this same conclusion. It's absolutely none of my business what somebody does in regards to his/her sexuality.
This.

Yep.

Would be nice if people hell bent on broadcasting what they do in the bedroom to the whole world held that same opinion.  Some people don't realize that it's supposed to be a 2-way street.  But today I guess that means people would "be in the closet."  Gimmie a break.  No one cares about your business unless you involve society (gay marriage, et al).  Just shut up already.
Just curious-did you support 'civil unions" back before the term "gay marriage" was legalized? If so, what on earth is the difference between a civil union between gays and a courthouse marriage between gays?
Gays still cannot receive the sacrament of marriage from the Catholic Church or the blessing of the local Baptist preacher in a ceremony-which is in accordance to what the Bible says-and 1000% their Constitutional right. They do the gay thing, Baptists do the Baptist thing, Wiccans do the Wiccan thing,etc,etc.

If there was no difference, then why weren't they content with civil unions?

How many folks "out there" thought there might be a "gay gene" in the first place?

Aside from the vast "born that way" crowd?

B/c some states wouldn't allow civil unions, so once the ball got rolling it wasn't going stop. Personally, I could care less about the legal verbiage/title.

I don't think "born that way" is the same as believing there is a "gay gene".

I doubted there would be a "gay gene" that was obviously detectable in the genome.  It really makes little sense there would be one.

But I realize a lot of folks are a bit hazy on genetic theory etc.

I was never really thrilled with civil unions, but I canâ€t stop people from entering into a contract to divie up their property when they pass, etc...  Now wording might seem trivial to some, but marriage is a biblical sacrament, so...

As far as churches go, some will perform gay weddings.  Theyâ€re wrong and hopelessly naive and stupid for doing so, but they are a “private” entity if you will, so be it.  I personally donâ€t want our society putting the stamp of approval on gay “marriage.”  Now as Iâ€ve said in the past I am all for getting the govt out of the marriage business.  So if your “church” is willing to do your wedding thatâ€s their deal.  As an American I want my hands washed of this lunacy.

I've mentioned before that in France they have "civil unions" at the local "Maire", THEN after that you can have a church wedding if you want.

Step 2 has zero "force of law".  Step 1 is all you need.  Makes sense to me.

I don't recall the last time i saw either side broadcasting what they do in the bedroom.

Because there is a difference.  Nobody wants to be treated like a 2nd class citizen.  The whole 'separate but equal' thing has already been tried and failed.

Who needs a parade? Protected class types. Who needs a month? Protected class types. Seems the protected class types are making everybody else 2nd class. 

I don't care what a person's sexual preference is, his skin color, or anything else. I only seem to notice when that person shouts it at the top of his lungs for me to notice. Then I hope that person gets what he wishes on others not like himself.
DC is a symptom, not the cause. The cause is basic voter stupidity and economic ignorance.
