Actually you did. You just pretended it was a fact:

Quote:
The part about homosexuality being evil is an opinion, sure, but the part abouttheir goal being “to defeat the marriage-based society and replace it with a culture of sexual promiscuity," is not. It's a claim about someone else's goals. It is either true or not.
You cant speak for all homosexuals so you cannot prove their opinion is wrong and most importantly, that they know it is wrong which defines a lie.

I said they can't KNOW what homosexuals are thinking. That's a fact.

I maintain that it's an obvious and stupid lie that this is their agenda, based on their statements, not reading their minds.

And neither can you. That is also a fact.

So once again you have no proof they are lying, just your opinion that they are.

True. But I can know what they say. And they have said many times they they want equal rights period. They haven't said they want to destroy heterosexuality and all that crap. My beliefs are based on reality.

Look, this thread has turned stupid. I'll start over: the idea that gay rights is about destroying heterosexual culture or whatever is just paranoid stupidity.

And that's really about the sum of it when dealing with these people. They are not given to rational thought. They resort to the most paranoid of derangements and try to disguise them as reason. The idea that homosexuals have an agenda apart from the agenda of every good American is just laughable. Every good American wants the freedoms to freely express, freely associate, and freely enjoy their individuality and personal liberties without intrusion or hinderance. That's the struggle of every man because it is what comes naturally to a creature who was endowed with certain inalienable rights by divinely perfect creator.

Admit it though, Tex, you'd quite like that law enforced in Texas too, wouldn't ya? Wouldn't ya?

You seem more adamant about defending the integrity of the visitors, who went there to preach their anti-gay bile (even if they stopped short of calling for the death penalty) than by defending the lives of innocent gay Ugandans who might suffer horribly by this satanic law.

What is impressively ignorant is that you would even play this game of associating sexual orientation with a political agenda. Saying that gays want to see the end of marriage is like saying that straights want to see the end of NAFTA or that bisexuals want to see a flat tax or that asexuals want to see greater control in immigration policy. It is inane and absurd to suggest that gays and lesbians all share the same political aspirations, particularly since there are groups like Log Cabin Republicans and GOProud which epitomize how wide the expanse of views can be.

It is, in fact, libertarian minded individuals who wish to see the government out of marriage and leave it to religious institutions to conduct such ceremonies. There are gay libertarians, just as there are straight libertarians, and asexual libertarians.

But seeing you take such a clearly stupid line of reasoning really confirms a thing or two I have suspected about you all along.
