[Charlemagne_III]

The history of the world is that in no society and by no sane person has gay marriage ever been imagined, never mind advocated, until now. Homosexuality (the essence of which is sodomy) has been largely condemned in most societies, though tolerated in some more than in others. Sodomy is offense against nature and common sense. Rules against it have existed in virtually all societies long before the Catholic Church even came to exist.

We live in morally depraved times; otherwise the belief that gay marriage is a human right would be laughable and ridiculed by sane people. It is only the aggressive intolerance of a depraved liberalism that has put conservatives, rather than sodomites, in the closet where liberals and sodomites want them.

That document should be read by anyone starting a thread about homosexuality or same- sex marriage on this forum.

So are you saying that sodomy should again have rules against it? You do realize that millions of heterosexuals engage in and actually enjoy it. That in itself completely contradicts your argument. I’m glad we live in these “morally depraved times” when people can be and express themselves without fear of being punished/stoned/killed.

I really question your claim that millions of heterosexuals engage in (sodomy) and actually enjoy it.

Unless you have some factual study that confirms “millions”…I would say that there may be a couple of thousand of perverted heterosexuals that engage in sodomy. And while half of them may be enjoying it… be assured that the other half is not.

More importantly, stating that heterosexuals also engage in the number one homosexual
past-time does NOT contradict an argument. Actually it is a very illogical defense of homosexuality since two wrongs do not make a right.
