Morality aside.
A good friend of mine once made the insightful comment that most people really don't care about the whole hetero/homo issue. Once the militant folks come out of the closet, they now open themselves to criticism by the general public. If they don't like or can't take the criticism, then they should stay in the closet.
My 2 cents.

AZ Infantry said:Now I'll take every single chance to vote against ANYTHING they want. If they wanted a 10 cent tax credit to feed starving whales in New Guinea, I'd vote against it - just because of who is behind it.
You sound so very American! You show you black-and-white way of thinking so eloquently and life must be really neat and simple. On the down side you rarely know who is behind it. You guess you know and other blanks in your knowledge you fill in with your dislike of the group...
(My apology if it sounds like flaming, but this just raised the hairs in my neck. So no offence meant for the other American members here.)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Declaration_of_IndependenceWe hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights,[71] that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

It would be akin to saying, "legalities aside, incest is a healthy family pastime"
Yep,... I'll stand in line behind AZ on this one.
If that were true all lawyers would be on Social service payments.Seno. Morality is subjective, Legality is objective
In a perfect world, laws would be based on morality.Can I assume that you would rather have morality in the debate? I think it would certainly make it more lively. :9mm:
