So what just because we them doesn't make them totally right, and neither do some aspects of the gay movement, like gay marriages or adoption.

Pedophiles should just be taken out to an isolated island somewhere in the Pacific, pensioned off and left to rot. Contain the island, drop food supply's off paid with by their pensions, and neuter them of course in case some poor kids get shipwrecked there.
We tried that once (minus the neutering part).

It's called Australia.

Where does it say in the Constitution that men should be allowed to marry each other and raise family's together?
it doesn't ban it or really give government jurisdiction to.

That wasn't around either in law, but probably was discussed, I doubt gay marriage would have even been seriously considered as anything but a joke by the average person, if it was thought of at all.
They had other things on their mind. But they also counted slaves as three fifths of a man...so the founders weren't perfect.

I still don't understand how homosexuality is bad, but this time, I need evidence, proof, or something to back up your answer.

So what your argument basically boils down to is 'it's just not right'.

Sorry, but your morals aren't mine.

No my argument boils down gay lobbyists argument for equal marriage rights, have as they see their idea of marriage having little difference to traditional, despite the obvious, when it is really their interpretation of what marriage values are, in order to get laws passed, not copying the same.

Debate forum, it's what it's for.
So far I'm yet to see anything from you other then using common opinion to justify an arguement and saying what you're ideas of morals are, peoples respective morals will be different.
If you want to win the debate then I suggest you hurry up and think up something that is seriously going to prevent homosexual marriage being viable, Dirty Name had a good starting point, maybe you should think about building up from where he left off?
