Well, this ditz who got hit on the head too many times with a big family Bible says so...
An American Christian radio host who last week said that same-sex marriage encourages children to have gay sex has now said that as she believes humans arent naturaly homosexual, gays arent people and shouldnt be protected under the definition of a person.
Linda Harvey, a radio host with an Ohio based Christian radio station WRFD asked her Mission America listeners: Why should the equal protection argument be made in favour of homosexual behavior, which is changeable? People are not naturally homosexual, so the definition of person in the Fourteenth Amendment is being twisted to make this assumption.
Person should be understood based on historic, beneficial, or at least neutral and fact-based traits; it should not be twisted to incorporate behavior that most religions and most cultures have said a firm no to.
Its also behaviour for which theres no recognised science demonstrating a genetic or hormonal origin. And its also not beneficial and does not stand the definition of marriage, used for millennia that is, the act of consummation. Its another sad fact of homosexual behavior that two men or two women can never consummate a marriage; they can never conceive children together.
The right winger continued: This should still have some standing and it remains a fact that there are only two types of human in the world: male and female. Any other distinctions made are appearance, custom, and construction. So marriage is the lawful, orderly confirmation of what we already see in nature.

(35,077 posts)Should the 14th Amendment apply to people with pacemakers or glasses, what about people with dyed hair or tattoos, and that whole "cultures have said a firm 'no' to" thing; people have said "no" to Jews, the Irish, blacks, Muslims, Catholics in Protestant countries, Protestants in Catholic countries, and more, so what about that?
I want to say "unbelievable", but I can't anymore.

What RELIGIONS say is irrelevant.
She is ignorant of the fact that there ARE marriages without consummation.
I have never known any animals to be married in a church.
