As a straight male, who believes in God, and a sort of "ying/yang" philosophy towards nature/nurture and Creationism/Evolution concepts...perhaps this just boils down to tolerance.

If I bought a house, and a gay/lesbian couple moved in next door. They would get the same treatment as anybody else. If they were jerks, I wouldn't like them. If they were good, friendly neighbors, they would be welcome.


The points I'm making is that we are unique opinions on these issues, yes. But, one must know there boundaries as to how far they can enforce these opinions (i.e. via the vote). I'm pro-life in theory, but pro-choiche in practice. It's not my body. Who am I to tell a woman she has to have her unwanted pregnancy. And, just as it is with the gay marriage issue, who am I to say a loving couple, regardless of the composition the two genders...can't be respected by society and live a long, loving, and recognized life together.


Tolerance seems to be the key. And, in the country, we surely have the right to the freedom of speech; but not necessarily the right to be "heard." I'll close by saying that yes gays deserve to be respected just like everybody else. But, keep it as much in your private life as possible. Cause it's mostly none of my business (and being a depressive) I really don't care about the whole romantic/"right to express one's libido"/soulmate/parnership thing. After a while it gets to be such a drag to listen to...
