Ok, quick note: Piguy, not at all against your opinion, but would you possibly start a separate thread on the idea of scripture and homosexuality, though many have been done? Politics and religion should be separate, I think is the point being made, because this country SHOULD be based on the principles of Separation of Church and State. Though the scripture may disagree with, and this is a digression to a necessary new thread if you wish, at the moment the law and politics is the primary concern. Let us leave the scripture to the religious threads and the Kerryness/Bushness to the political threads.

First of all someone asked me why I personally had somthing against gays. Secondly, seperation of church and state was a law originally intended to keep churches from controlling the gov't like the roman catholic church has done in the past. This does not mean we should not use the bible or laws from the bible. In fact the bible is just as much a history book as it is a church law book, And the point of remembering history is so we don't make the same mistakes twice.
Also HIV started with gays, then there were some "unfaithful" gays who had sex with women and men and then it bacme widespread. Its not based around only gays.

The allowance of gay marriage could help stop some of the spreading of HIV. It would encourage gay couples to stay together and not have many sex partners, just as "heterosexual" marriage does.

But what's stopping from another disease similar to HIV from starting also. And you can't say that gays won't cheat on their partner as much as a heterosexual would.
