Quote:I'm not sure what the connection is? What does being gay have to do with pediphilia? These are two completely separate issues. I guess we were going down a slippery slope when we allowed women the right to vote and afforded black people the same freedoms as white people. This backwards thinking is what is holding us back, but things are still progressing regardless which is a good thing.

 

 

Quote:There is no connection.

 

The only reason it's brought up is because it's such a toxic topic that by even mentioning it in the same sentence as marriage equality they hope to create a negative reaction in ignorant people.

 

I'll guess what I think D6 is trying to say in regards to the "connection"...

 

There was a time when homosexuality was considered "taboo" or perversive by a large majority of people....in current society, its increasingly not seen as that way, with the help of the interest groups that are bullying their ideas, and maybe also via the ease for anyone to obtain x rated movies via the internet....Most people understand that once something is gained, it usually doesn't just "stop" there....a fringe will want more and more and become bored with the "status quo"...when being gay isn't enough to satisfy their sexual desires, then what?....then they seek something else to satisfy their needs....could it evolve into legal pedophelia? incest? polygamy?? Who knows what road it will evolve into?? I'd bet few people saw where we are now regarding homosexuality being "normal" 60 years ago....
