I just found this thread and wanted to share that I am also a huge fan of Thomas Sowell. Very interesting article, and yes, Mr Sowell always provides an interesting perspective in his writings.

That said, I won't try to sway those who support gay marriage to support opposing beliefs (IMO a simple bulletin board thread is not an effective means of changing one's opinion).

So here's a question: if gay marriage is OK, then what about polygamy...is that OK as well? How about older men who want to marry 16yo boys?

just curious,

ironic how you call me a bigot. seems to me your the one who is so closed minded about me having a view other then yours.
funny how you too brush aside a significant portion of the population because they dont feel the same as you on gay issues.

dont get so mad because your first link didnt turn out the way you liked, feel free to provide another.
i dont mind waiting for this supposed proof that homosexuality is genetic.


BTW,I have no problem with someone making a lifestyle choice.

I don't think there's any irony at all. I'm not going to be sympathetic to you and the others on this post who are clearly homophobic and espouse bigotry. Now if you need assistance in researching this topic go to Google and type in the following;

Gay Genetics
Civil Rights
Ku Klux Klan
Womens Rights
Bigots
Racists
Uneducated
Ignorance

I'm back for a bit. I gave the movie 20 minutes. It's awful. I tried. Really. I'll go back down in a bit and pretend I'm watching it. ;)

I'll just address the 16 year old boy issue. Children shouldn't be allowed to marry whether it be a hetero or homosexual relationship. Kids aren't allowed a sip of wine until they are 21 years old. Why should they be allowed to enter into a lifelong commitment at 16 years old?

Please, let's not equate homosexuality with pedophilia, beastiality (sp?) or anything of the like. It's insulting.
