I find it quite ironic that you look to Greence and Rome as an example to support an agruement relating to human rights. Both of these nations' relied on slavery as a means of supporting their economies and maintaining the relatively high standard of living of the middle and upper classes...

Yes, but did any European culture accept homosexual unions as legitimate, let alone as equal to heterosexual marriage? I have never claimed it is illegitimate because it is uncommon.

You may be able to, but Muslim holy wars (Jihads) are advocated by the religion itself. The conquest of the Americas by Spain, while I imagine was endorsed by the nobility-level clergy, wasn't fought as a "holy war" equivilant, if that makes sense... Yep :)

Haha yeah I agree, I'm staying with physics :) And loool @ Ruse, I've heard the stupidly competitive culture gets to people >.>

Still no mention of homosexual marriages tho, I wonder why... Strictly speaking, "love" between two people is not required for their marriage to be legitimate, however one wonders how the relationship would work if said love was not there. However, even so, consent is still required if the...

Because the Native Americians had a pretty peaceful religion themselves ofc... The Spanish conquered them for $. Most native deaths which occured as a result of European colonisation were because of disease and not of outright violence. Even so, this is a stupid example, the world of the...

Thanks :)

Um... was it dudeitstotallynotdiscrimination? Its not discrimination at all to limit the title of something as befitting certain behaviours, with the exclusion of all others which are not the same. It would be discrimination if I were to say that you should have state recognised unions and...

This is opposed to the gay agenda (as an example) which stands for moral bankrupcy, the promotion of pseudo-science and outright falsehoods and the promotion and indoctrination of otherwise upstanding members of society into an indecent and unhealty lifestyle? Christianity is not violent, it...

Schweppes Citrus Blend, Blood Orange and Lemon Lime and Bitters.

I would have thought they would have done that anyway, even more so after what happened. No its just vandalising public property by a bunch of immature teenagers who think that by attacking the government on the internet, that people will actually take notice of them. Regardless, whether...

Lol, they are actually retarted if they think they can "wipe out the government presence on the internet". Whatever happened to rational, democratic opposition, go organise a protest or get a petition going, but don't bloody vandalise government property, nobody thinks its cool. They sound...

Studies done in Amsterdam in the Neatherlands, where gays can marry (I think) and aren't "unfairly being persecuted by angry Christians!!" gave similar results, and further studies relating to promiscuity among homosexuals (in Neatherlands) demonstrated that gays on average have many more sexual...

Allowing homosexual activists a “protester’s veto” over legitimate medical inquiry and research will only cost more lives, as larger society and especially young men are denied clear information on the special health risks of “gay” sex compared to normal, natural, heterosexual intercourse.

Hahah funny how anything which exposes homosexuality for what it is, even as a service for would-be homosexuals, highlighting the dangers associated with the lifestyle choice is percieved as descriminatory. US's National Library of Health; Cigarette smoking among lesbians, gays, and...

Citations plox. And is there any evidence that these unions were state endorsed, considered equal to heterosexual marriage and accepted as normal, or just tolerated for the sake of avoiding arguement? And what does this prove, regardless? Many ancient civilisations promoted human sacrifice...

Wow... Ruse? ;) For me, I'm *so* dropping Physics, but I'll have to wait until next year (term 3 but w/e) since the only class I can trade into is Buisness and I dun wunna do that, silly timetable -.-

Becuase I can't have anal sex either @ 16, if I were in Queensland and nor can anyone else. Its not like gay men are the only people capable of having anal sex, it inconvenienves everyone who wishes to engage in that activity, be they straight or not. Regardless, it wouldn't really stop a...

While yes it probably does inconvenience one group in society more than others, it isn't at all descriminatory, it doesn't single out a single group at all, it simply legislates against behaviour (which is applicable to everyone). IDK why the Government would do it though, I suppose possibly...

I would say if anything Christians have more of a claim to marriage than homosexuals, if it came down to that...
