Hey Rick, I hope you were not referring to me.

But let’s stop and answer you concerns, and then I know you will address how the same Christian racist diatribes are so different from the Christian anti-gay diatribes.
Please tell me who the victim is in homosexuality. Incest, man-boy sex, rape, murder, bestiality (I suppose, I’ve never asked the animals opinion), etc., all have easily identified victims. Please point out the victim in homosexuality. The only victims are the homosexuals themselves, who are victimized by self righteous, religious bigots who want their narrow-minded views to be everyone’s view.
I my book, no victim, no problem.

Lighten up a bit; maybe I should have put one of those silly smiley faces after that crack. Apparently, subtlety is not one of your strong points.
There are many victims of homosexuality. Just because they don't jump right out in front of you does not mean they are not there. It tears appart families, ruins lives, goes hand in hand with other risky behaviors, exposes its practitioners to increased health risk, and on and on. The gay community has expended a great deal of effort in debunking all of this as homophobic myth, but at the end of the day, they cannot hide from the raw statistics.
Your assertion that homosexuality is a natural behavior because it can be observed in animals is simply inane in the extreme. It is an all too common argument. Those that parade that tired old jutification about only succeed in demonstrating they have on the one hand swallowed the gay propoganda, and on the other have not thought it through for themselves. This argument will not hold up to even the most cursory scrutiny. There are species that commonly eat their young. Incest is rampant in the animal world. So is murder and rape. Theft of another's hard won prize (predators chasing one another off a kill). No one would ever attempt to justify these actions in the human world because they observed them in the animal world. Why homosexuality? It is a desperate reach from a population trying everything they can to justify their lifestyle to the rest of us. A lifestyle the vast majority of people recognize as aberant.
That said, I stand firmly behind my earlier statement that I could care less how others live their lives until they affect mine. Homosexuality does not affect mine. They can have at it; it is none of mine nor my government's business. There should be no laws concerning it whatsoever. It should also, on the other hand, not be pushed on our kids through public schools as a healthy alternative lifestyle. It is not. Pushing it on any public forum, schools or otherwise, is just as innappropriate as pushing religion in any of the same venues.
