As I mentioned before, I suppose you would encourage them to be taken out of society and put into camps maybe? Dropped on some island and left for dead? Barred from working any job or functioning in "d3ecent" society perhaps? You are the type who probably loved HUckabee when he ran in 08 and said he would like to wrewrite the constitution to be more CHristian.
Do you have any clue how bad your comments sound? Your gay coments make me think maybe you have a white robe and hood in your closet.
We should not endorse sin, but we also shouldn't treat sinners like lepers or effectively make it impossible for them to live in society. Maybe some want a theocratic country where only those who live "right" are allowed rights here, but I don't. I think the free society we have is pretty great.
If you have such a problem with gays, perhaps try to win them to CHrist that He may heal them instead of arguing their ban from society.

I supported McCain and am on record, here, as stating Huckabee would never be president because, he is a big goober.
I'm going to disregard most of your hysterical, pro-gay agenda comments and get to the point.
In 2000, the Supreme Court upheld the Boy Scout's ruling - “membership to individuals who are open or avowed homosexuals or who engage in behavior that would become a distraction to the mission of the BSA."
They ruled that the First Amendment’s freedom of association allows private organizations to exclude whomever they choose.
For any person or candidate that would desire to make some semblance of a gesture to uphold those rights and keep our country on the moral high ground, simply would not add to their comments - "I feel that all people should be able to participate in the Boy Scouts regardless of their sexual orientation."
They are simply siding against our First Amendment rights AND siding against the Supreme Court's ruling. It is political pandering and continues to keep the misguided fight alive.
If Romney wasn't such a schmuck, he would have said, "I side with the Supreme Court's ruling as that gives every American and American organization or business the right to exist on it's own personal merit. After all, that is what the history of our country was founded upon - freedom."
That is the conversation that should have taken place, years ago, by people with intestinal fortitude who should have sided with the same ruling as the Supreme Court - period.
You are advocating the same thing that the homosexual movement is pushing on us - accept us and accept our rights - IN THE MEAN TIME - we do not accept your beliefs and your rights under the same Constitution. We are supposed to kowtow to their whims, pushing our beliefs aside. That has become a very strange conservation in this country.
I am also on record, here, saying that I am offended any time I hear the ridiculous comment, "God didn't make Adam and Steve." That is condescending and you don't play around with gripping, clutching sin in any category.
To be forced to push the Bible, i.e.
Romans 1 aside in favor of political correctness is untenable and this country is already paying for that.
We are discussing a heated topic here which has EVERYTHING to do with our First Amendment rights and NOTHING to do with putting on a white hooded robe and banning anyone from society. Take a chill pill.
