Personally, I could care less what the bible says about gays. I might care what Jesus said about gays though. Can anyone quote him? Obviously, as a libertarian and a "follower of Jesus", not a Christian by any sense of the modern use of the word, I could care less who gays sleep with. However, I am against gay "marriage", support gay unions, and am adamantly against "gay adoption", as a bad framework to raise children within.

None of this, in my opinion, has the slightest thing to do with Jesus Christ.

I could care less if it's called gay marriage, but I am concerned that if it is not, there is greater risk of discrimination.

I also lack an understanding of why a gay family can't raise a child as well as a straight family beyond the excellant propaganda work put out by the "pro-family" crowd. The studies I've seen noted no significant difference in the mental health and happiness of the children.

Thats strange. The studies I have seen show children do better when they have a mother and a father, especially in terms of creating financial stability. And, common sense supports the same principle. What is it, something like 80% of black children are born out of wedlock, and then they blame whites for their problems.......

Were these studies comparing them to gay families or single/divorced families? This comparison is irrelivant if it does not take this into account. Your examples only compare a straight married family to a single parent family or a family with a child born out of wedlock, which has a strong correlation to single parent families. Statistics lie if you don't look at them appropriately.

Personally I think knowledge goes beyong being able to take quotes from the bible. The bible is meant to be inturpreted in meaning and context, not quoted. If not, then there are certianly many more pressing sins we have going on than homosexuality.
