The idea that some people hold ridiculous or even worse, criminal predjudices against any segment of society in no way diminishes that segments consitutional rights in our society. To say that anyone victimized by a criminal does not have equal protection under the law is just not true.
You are referring to a break down in the power of attorney laws, it does and has occurred however it again has no affect on rights. Hospitals do not have to let family in they simply choose to. Doctors are only obligated to speak with the patient. Clinton did the right thing, when you look at the distructive nature of gay marriage on child rearing you can see why it is correct to restrict marriage.
What is the destructive nature of gay marriage?
Gay marriage will create a breakdown in the social systems installed to aid children and the mothers who dedicate their lives to these children. When SSAs think they will achieve “family” insurance, dependent social security benefits, tax benefits, etc…,. They won’t, instead they will drive a rewrite of laws to develop non-family status for mothers and children within the law (that is a bad thing). The father duties will be replaced by government. Saying all this is by no means a slam on SSA I know some SSA people and they are some of the best people I know. We do need to fix the power of attorney thing do allow them to resolve some problems in their partnerships. Damaging marriage laws will not help the SSA at all.
Marriage between two homosexuals can never be valid in the Christian sense of what marriage is. The Church and the Bible teaches that a man and a woman become married and becomes one flesh. Two men or two women can never become as one flesh as promoted by the Christian idea of marriage. This becoming one flesh is significantly important in Christian theology to the point where it is always a mortal sin when there is sex outside of the marriage sacrament.
I try and never use the word “gay” as it is a euphenism that attempts to minimize the evil of homosexual beahavior.Here are the tactics used by homosexual activists to desensitize the American public concerning “gays” and “gay rights”. They’re getting away with it too, as we see here by the many posts supporting homosexuality.

For the utmost in clarity, perhaps you could simply always use the adjective “evil” before the noun “homosexual”. No ambiguity there.
Aberrant sexual behaviour is evil in the eyes of God as we are instructed in the Holy Bible and acting on evil impulses cannot be condoned or tolerated. Most people do not discuss or extol their sexual preferences nor should they. Nothing “perfectly normal” about fornication between unmarried people. Marriage is a holy union reserved for a man and a woman as this union is the only one that has the possibility of producing offspring and is a total commitment and covenant between the spouses and God. If you are a Catholic, please read up on this important issue and follow God’s laws.No! They can’t get married. It’s perfectly normal. You don’t keep your straightness to yourself do you? Then why should they have to keep their sexual orientation to theirselves? The insensitivity and arrogance here repulses me
Of course people who engage in homosexual behavior can get married, subject to the same restrictions that apply to all Americans regardless of race,creed, gender or country of National origin. The ignorance of the law here repulses me.No! They can’t get married. It’s perfectly normal. You don’t keep your straightness to yourself do you?

If you left your job to take care of someone not covered by the FLA you would be fired also. Your friend has the exact same rights all Americans do regardless of race,creed, gender or country of national origin
That’s the point .The law discriminates between my family and hers. What you are saying is is unreasonable. That we are equal under the law beacuse the law doesn’t treat us equally.
A couple shacking up isn’t covered by the FLA either nor is any other unrelated couple living together. Are they victims of unjust discrimination? Should there be no limits to who is covered by the FLA?
A couple that is “shacking up” has the same opportunity to recieve the benefits of FMLA. They need only get married. Only takes $30 and a trip to the courthouse. Can be done in 20 mins. That’s if their straight. Gays not so blessed. Gays families are families too. But they do not have equality under the law.
