    It is not a political issue except in the political arena. So if you don't really know the answers, you can look up the consensus of the research community. Or you could go with your gut. Whatever feels more rational.

    He said that gays shouldn't be allowed to marry. DOMA had a provision that did not allow the federal government to recognize same-sex marriages even when states did. When the Supreme Court struck that down, he tweeted that it was a sad day for the country. If there is "believing in traditional...

    The students are choosing which restaurant to get on campus. Am I wrong? They can not prevent Amazon or any other online retailer from shipping to anywhere on campus. That is very silly. This is not a legal challenge, which you seem to be misunderstanding. There is no legal reason to bar Chick...

    The Amazon comparison is not a comparison unless you are talking about a physical store. To use a real example take Starbucks which vocally supports gay marriage. Our democracy respects and protects minorities. If Starbucks wanted to open a store and a vocal minority protested them for...

    The current hypothesis is a combination of 'genetic, hormonal, and social factors'. Whether it is nature or nurture there is little choice in the matter. Gay people can no more decide to change their sexuality than straight people. For any person their sexuality may change over time, but it may...

    Beautifully said. timnsun and Jimmy I'm glad you guys could come together. I read it as an attack too though not on me. Your clarification later was important.

    We are all people. I want to add that to be gay is uncommon, it is not a defect. It is just different. Also, not all Christians want to keep gays from marrying. A broad brush based on religion is not right. Here we have common ground. Laws that say gay people can't marry were found...

    I am arguing against wanting blanket denial for a gay couple when that same love is celebrated for a straight couple. To make amends with those I've offended, I do not think your disagreement makes you a bad person by any stretch. You are probably very good people, to everyone but gay people...

    It reminds me of France where people recently boycotted Starbucks for turning away women in a Middle Eastern country. The laws there required them to have a separate space for women. The Starbucks shop did not and they were required to turn women away until they could put up the barrier. I...

    Good post, Tom. Thank you for your thoughts in this thread. I was curious about them. For myself, I would eat at Chick-fil-A. I don't, but I am not opposed to it, I am just not a fast food guy. Stopping them from coming to campus is not important. However, criticizing advocacy of intolerant...

    People may convince themselves however they need to that wanting to deny gay couples marriage is not 'intolerant'. It won't change the reality of their position one bit. Gay couples exist. No law, constitutional or not, will stop this. Their existence threatens nobody. Acceptance harms nobody...

    That right is not yours nor the state's to deny to people. The law of our land includes equal protection, thank God. People who do do want a gay marriage are free to choose not to do so for themselves, without denying that choice to others with different preferences.

    Tolerance does not exist while intolerance is accepted. Homophobia is not different from racism, just there are more people who think it is okay. More people who think it is only harmless personal opinion and not the basis of state policy that degrades real people. And that is the case here, a...

    Lincoln, please do that if it will truly make you feel better. Hateful is a strong word, but what else to call prejudice? It's a position that marginalizes people for their sexuality. We as a country are all learning to move from a time where homophobia is accepted norm to a time where it is...

    Chick fil-A doesn't have any bad policies that I know of. The CEO brought this on his own company. The protest is a statement of people who want to express opposition to his discrimination-advocating public statements. Make no mistake, wanting to deny to others something you are able to enjoy...
