Subject: RE: BS: Can't have your gay cake and eat it
"No it does not."
Yes it does - the church opposed decriminalising homosexuality, now it is opposing extending the same rights to homosexuals as the rest of us
Paint it whatever colour you wish - yhat is homophobic bigotry.
"Having a traditional view of marriage does not make anyone a bigot."
The depriving of basic rights to those who do not hold those views does
It is not what people believe that is at issue, it is imposing those beliefs on others that is - that is fundamentalist bigotry.
"Many gay people oppose gay marriage"
So what?
The vast majority of them do and if the minority attempted to impose their views on the rest they would be bigots.
