Maybe - Only on the ones trying to change my views over to theirs. I prefer the don't ask don't tell idea. These idiots that want to change my views, and the childrens views into this as an acceptable normal every day thing just have to go. I guess if you have a don't ask don't tell policy, then you are already advocating it, and you will eventually be met by those that want to change your views over to theirs.

To advocate it is a no win situation for all involved. Sad. Welcome to our screwed up world.

So what you're saying Subman is that a lot of gay men seem to find you attractive?

You want me to answer that honestly? I will matter of fact - Yes they do. I have been picked up by guys almost as often as women (which happens frequently too). It ticks me off to. I won't get into it, but the best peice of advice I can offer if you want to avoid the same - when the wife is shopping in the super market, avoid the magazine racks. I learned to avoid them myself. Seems to be a popular place for gays to pick up gays.

Has anyone seen the latest Jack in the Box commercial.

While i could care less if gays get married I found that ad offending and way over the line.

My 8yo nephew was over to visit my wife and me and saw that ad on tv and asked if those to men were going to have sex.

After I got over being stunned by the ad and what the kid asked us.

I said no, the one sitting down is going to pullout a gun and kill the other one.

Jus trying to understand this

In many countries homosexuality is illegal, in many others there is a significant cultural bias against homosexuals. Homosexual pride functions as a way to combat discrimination and hatred. It functions as a signal that mistreatment won't be tolerated, and a hopeful broadcast to closeted homosexuals not to be afraid.

The pride you have in your children would be analogous to this if there was a day-to-day message that you should be ashamed of them. There's no Hetero Pride parades because society has never been ashamed of heterosexuals.
Pride in your country could be a reaction to criticism, same as pride in your church.
Or, they could be genuine expressions of basic pride in accomplishments/ideals/etc.

I honestly don't know whether this is a joke or not...

I take it killing a man is better from a moral perspective and for the education of our children than gay marriage?

If one of my sons turns out to be gay, I guess I should tell him I wish he'd been a serial killer instead.

That's because sane people know its wrong instinctively, as do gays as well.

Not neccesarily, but that is not the point. Nice twist on the facts. Of course, its pure spin.

He turned it into a subject about sane nations instead of what we are talking about. Figured I'd help you out since you are a little slow as always.

Lets analyze a country with such laws in another thread please. If you want a country to start with, let me help you - India. They house a major portion of the worlds population, so they would be a good place to start.
