My position is an attempt to understand the current REALITY of America's opposition to the "marriage" of homosexuals. It is not dogma.
How do you explain the current rejection of homosexuals marrying? There aren't enough religious dogmatists in America to constitute a majority of voters. There is something else at work here. What is it? |
If it has no quotes, it is to the person right above me, that is how it kind of works....
I can explain the current rejection of homosexual marriage very simply, it disgusts people, gay sex, it makes people gag. They don't want to give rights to people who gross them out. They are homophobes. There justification for that, though hardly a good one, is the Bible, which lucky for them is anti-homosexual (of course it is mostly anti-sexual, but they like to ignore that aspect). Personally, I think homophobia comes first, then religion in the "rejection" of homosexual marriage.
And I am not much different, I think gay sex is pretty gross too, I just don't think it is right to do anything about it. I think a lot of things are gross. Plus I don't want to support banning gay marriages because it will impower Christians, which sickens me more than homosexuality ever could.
