Default Re: Gay marriages... dictated by religious authorities

No offense intended but I think your posts show a fundamental misunderstanding of homosexuality. As if there's an army of "on the fence" bisexuals just waiting for laws to change so they can finally declare their allegiance to the gay team.

You are looking for something too extreme and naturally not finding it. The effects I'm talking about are slow and subtle and take a long time to creep into peoples' subconscious.

And how does gay marriage lead to heteros' kids' futures being a "dead end street"?

[/ QUOTE ]

If that's what society is telling them they should be doing, given that society doesn't care about the succession of its members, rewarding opposing behaviors instead, then that could be interpreted as a dead end street, or at least a long uphill battle against a lot of opposition -- something that doesn't faze me personally, but might have such an effect on some.

The fact that one of the actual reasons you are having 8 kids is so you can rest easy knowing that most of them will likely be heterosexual... is fascinating to me.

I want my genes to continue on for as long as possible, preferably for as long as humanity exists, and I also want to maximize their representation. Is that so unusual? If one of my kids is homosexual, well, there's a dead end branch for my genes. So I want to make sure there are other branches that are not dead end.

I really fail to see what's so unusual about this.
