Puke- What a horrible ad

Yeah, but that get's right to the heart of the matter. Homosexual marriages are illegal because God doesn't like them. It's a stupid ad, because you don't really need to reaffirm to the religious conservative base that homosexual marriages are contrary to God's design. There is no non-religious rationale for discriminating against same-sex couples that is reasonable.

Yep. It is disturbing that people actually buy into that dogmatic BS and that they feel it is their right to impose their will on others.

This is not true. Homosexuals clearly break natural law, and their inability to produce offspring is detrimental to the human race. Also, for them to get the tax benefits of a normal couple would be a drain on the economy.

The pagan philosophers all condemned homosexuality as well. This is not a "Christian" thing.

Which natural law is that? Conservation of energy? Momentum perhaps? The law of gravity?

It is? How so? My mother is 74 years old. Is her inability to produce offspring a detriment to the human race? I look around and see plenty of people pounding out squalling brats, more than enough to make up for those that either can't or choose not to.

[/ QUOTE ]

Um, how would someone being able to keep more of their own money be a drain on the economy? It clearly would be a boost for the economy, since they would have more funds to spend. Furthermore, even if it were a drain on the economy, wouldn't that mean that tax benefits for "normal" couples is a drain on the economy? Shouldn't your position then be to eliminate tax benefits for heterosexual couples, rather than simply deny them to homosexual couples?

Some citations, please?

What do you expect from a bunch of drunken hillbillies who believe in a magical, non-existant figure as their savior?

You've got nothing on them in the tolerance category.

The ad looked fine to me. It did a good job of conveying a message many believe.
