Subject: RE: BS: major religions and homophobia
The only perversion associated with homosexuality is all the people who are interested in what other people are doing in bed.

Making laws against homosexualtiy is as clear an instance breaking down the separation of church and state as I have ever seen. It ought to be treated as an attempt to overthrow the Constitution of the United States.

A few years ago I worked with a guy who said that gay and lesbian marraige should not be legal because the purpose of marraige is to produce and raise children. He wasn't bothered by the fact that he and his wife were childless and intended to remain so.

Anyone who thinks being gay or lesbian is a choice should remember back to when they were 13 or so and just becomming sexually aware. Remember how you felt about members of the opposite sex? Do you really thing you would have had any choice in your sexual orientaion? What makes you think anyone else has any more choice?
