Ad: Same sex marriage will take my freedom away

[w¡n9Nµ7 §£@¥€r 123]

When gay marriage becomes more widely accepted, will you be less free?

without a doubt.

Which specific freedom will you miss the most?

In case you missed this, Danno.

Alternative (**) marriage opens the door to many changes in our society which impact basic freedoms we have grown accustomed too.

One of the most intimate is the right to a public education.

Schools will be taxed with the job of training youngsters (I like that word) .... to embrace life styles which are contrary to many people of faith.

The only option will be private or home school.

Businesses which are run by people with traditional values will be forced by legal action to accept people whose very behavior or lifestyle they object too.

Such as if someone owns a bed-and-breakfast business or offers marriage services such as photography or limo.

If the homos legally hounded the BoyScouts, to the tune of hundreds of thousands of dollars, I doubt they will show mercy to anyone else who has a similar opinion on their lifestyle.

The cost of Gay-marriage both direct and indirect could be sizable.

1. Schools - schools don't teach the hetero 'lifestyle' today, what makes you think they'll teach the ** 'lifestyle' tomorrow?

2. Laws banning discrimination against homosexuals in businesses of public accommodation can exist without gay marriage.

Maybe I need to make this a poll, but...

At what point did everyone here choose to live a heterosexual lifestyle? A what moment did you realize that Suzie made your heart palpitate and Billy made you want to beat him in sports?

My earlier hetero memory involves an issue of Playboy from back in 1986. I was in awe of the female form then, and am in awe today.

You made a worthy choice, my friend. Your parents should be proud.

1.We don't have to wait for tomorrow for the to teach it, we have Gay marriage already in some places and we see the "teaching" going on already. Here are vids of it happening.

My fav scene is the one where, one teacher worries "they might be teaching something contrary to what the parents would approve of"...... then the group of "educators" dismisses that concern as meaningless.

2. True, these laws can proceed on their own ( as they should).

Teach it? Making people aware that being gay is ok, is quite different to teaching one how to be one Danno. I am sure a gay person could try forever to 'teach you' to be gay, but you would always fail

Unfortunately it wouldn't be the first class I failed

But the "teaching" in not so much about 'how to be gay' but rather "indoctrinating" (and I don't think that word is inaccurate) children to reject long standing.... social, religious and traditional values that should be protected even if they were not in the mainstream.

Clearly this is not the role of Government.

You equate teaching a child to be nonjudgmental towards gays as indoctrinating them? What is the proper way to teach your children about gay people?

I saw this vid yesterday. When I have children, I'll tell them the same thing my mother told me about the 2 women who ran the local video store...

"They're lesbians. Now go pick out which video you want."

Seriously, the point is... people are different, so......?

Same sex marriage is not taking away my freedom.

Yep. I think Danno has skidded down that slippery slope. Let's just go back to teaching kids how to read, write, and calculate.

Religion certainly is a form of indoctrination (indoctrination is not necessarily bad).....I am not against indoctrination by any church, parent, gay group... whatever. These are all private entities. What I am against is when the Govt indoctrinates children in areas contrary to the parents moral views. Really this has no place in school to begin with.

Religion is taught in public schools too. Do you think that teaching children about different religions is a bad idea? Or would you prefer your government to just teach christianity so that your children do not get confused?
