akenaton

Right from the start I've said that from the point of view of people who believe in the traditional institution of marriage, redefinition is an infringment of their rights.

Other points like promiscuity,the break-up of marriages or civil unions, or religious issues have absolutely nothing to do with redefinition.......Its all about the word.

What akenaton actually said at the start -

Regardless of "Gay Marriage", homosexuals will never gain social acceptance while the vast majority of the population perceive the homosexual act as disgusting...Ake

A few other things he said along the way -

The problem is that homosexuality and how we view it has become a political issue, when in fact it is an issue of morality.

But there are sincere people out there who do care.....committed Christians, people who believe in the "sanctity" of marriage, in short, traditionalists just like folkies.

The homosexuals want their lifestyle accepted by Christianity or Islam, regardless of the firmly held beliefs of the followers of these religions.

Homosexuality is a moral issue to devout Christians,or Moslems. Maybe not to you or I. As far as people's rights are concerned, there are many many more Devout Christians and Moslems in this world than homosexuals. Therefore, should this minority (homo sexuals) have the right to subvert the core beliefs of the religious?

Nice to see that he can be flexible in his arguments.
