We have laws covering discrimination. Blocking Gay marriage is discrimination. So there's no need to pass legislation in favor of because the mutual consideration litmus test fails.

Where do you get your facts when you state that gays want to dissolve the 18 year old barrier?

Thats an opinion on a very slippery slope. I guess we'll have to see how the reality of it shakes out. I don't think it is discrimination or at least if it is, its discriminating against deviate behavior. Thats my opinion, like it or not. I don't apologize for it anymore than a gay person would apologize for his or her opinion on heterosexuality.
What blows my mind when I stop to think of it is that such a level of sexual deviance is now being discussed as dinner table conversation in household throughout the country and the world.
I think sexually, we as humans are all deviant to a point. The question is, do we now have a group that has come up with a label to excuse their behavior.

Astro, glad to see you aren't like most people. "Well, it the catholic church, who cares if they rape little kids, they holy men." Thankfully, you don't believe that.
I would say that MOST people disagree with this. Hell, the Catholic church has lost a lot of members because of it. I say we should lock them up and let the convicts deal with them prison style.
But why is same sex deviant? You say it is more attraction to soemthing that is different, not because they are in love, but as asked, you psychic? I wished I was able to read the mind of everyone.
Same sex is devient in the fact that it only means "Differing from a norm or from the accepted standards of a society." I think the term has taken a negative connotation and is used as such, but from a technical definition it's true.
BTW, I'm a man, I can change, if I have to, I guess.
