Like everything else, Lisa, your perspective of the situation is 99% what you want to have happened and 1% what really did.
They only have the same rights when you carefully craft the question. As before I gave a simple example of how two people (a heterosexual and a homosexual of the opposite sex) do not have the same rights. One may marry a given person while the other can’t. I’m sorry that makes you grumpy to hear but please stop pretending I never gave a rationale.So far you have not posted any rationale for your contention that if a homosexual male has the right to marry anyone that a heterosexual male could marry, that somehow this means there is discrimination against homosexuals. If both males have the same rights then there is no discrimination against homosexuals. Please explain how if two people have the same rights, one is being discriminated against.
You could get a sex change but anyway this is where you once again ignore the evidence that homosexuality has a genetic component and I once again point it out and you pretend that it doesn’t exist. Frankly that dance is getting tiresome. Trust me I get it: you’ll never accept the evidence of a genetic component no matter what. Okay, fine. I can’t force you to be rational.Further you try to ally the homosexual movement with other civil rights movements. But again you are trying to compare intrinsic qualities with choices and lifestyles. I am female. I was born female. I will die female. I live every day female. That will not change. Any limitations of being female are intrinsic to my nature. I have an African American co-worker. She was born African American. She has lived every day African American. Nothing will change about this characteristic.
Really what are my opinions? I said Gay marriage may have happened. Well guess what? I get that from reading conflicting reports from historians about the matter. I don’t declare unambiguously that they did happen (as opposed to your declaration to the opposite).As to homosexual marriage you simply blow off my statements about no evidence of homosexual marriage saying it “may” have occurred. Well has it? We’re all waiting for evidence. Your opinions are already clear.
I’m on this list to discuss things with people who are of different views than me. I don’t disdain Catholicism. I certainly do disdain some Catholics but thats not the same thing. I do get annoyed by people who pretend to be experts on subjects when they aren’t. I also sometimes feel compelled to correct factually incorrect statements (c.f. “there is no evidence of a genetic component to homosexuality”). I’d much rather be having a stimulating discussion but I hate to leave this topic to people who have shown remarkable prejudice and unwillingness to confront facts. That’s just me though.If you are not homosexual and disdain Catholicism what are you doing on this list? Are you just here to tell us we are all foolish and since you are so compelling in your presentation we will all capitulate? Good luck.
Right. I haven’t answered any of your questions at all. And I haven’t given you links to the studies and the organizations that support my points. Oh no not one!Frankly it is pointless to continue discussing anything with you. You refuse to respond to questions. You fail to provide evidence of your premises. You are just the world’s greatest expert on your own opinion. Aren’t we all?
