And therein lies the problem. Heterosexuality and homosexuality are not equal. Nobody should be obligated to treat them as equal.

One of the biggest problems with our culture is the insistence upon treating things that are not equal as equal.
One of the biggest problems with our culture is the insistence of some people to pass judgment on others. We should treat people like people and not worry about whether they are our equal or not.

In your twisted worldview, fine. You are just like the morons that didn't think blacks and whites were equal too, so no use give them equality as well.


BTW, The Mormons believe that black skin is a curse from God, but if you are a good person, Jesus will make you white when you die.
