reality check guys:
hompsexuality is NOT a mental illness, as much as you want it to be. and, as far as genetics is concerned, its not hereditary either. as far as the scientific world knows.
if you say that the 'founding fathers' were christian, and slave owners, which you did, first off, its not even an argument, its an example of how you feel. but secondly, are you suggesting that the slave trade was okay too? because, if you 'put two and two together" like you said, then slavery is a good idea, and homosexuality should be condemned.
But see, up here in the land of Ice and Snow, aka Canada, we, and by we, i mean most of us, believe in human equality and that includes equality regardless of sexual orientation.
an yeah, gay people get aids, but if they are getting married, they're not going to be sleeping around, dontcha think? wouldnt that lead to the stop of your so called spread of aids. that is, if you honestly prove that they are responsible for it, but they're not, so end of story.
