Yes it should be illegal. We have outlawed other forms of sexual perversion, like pedophilia and bestiality and so forth. Why should homosexual perverts get special treatment? I'm sick of our country turning its back on God's law and caving in to perverts who want to take this country down the toilet with them.
The penalty for the crime of homosexuality should be severe, however I am someone who has witnessed the power of Christ to change lives. So for the first offense I would like to see only 2-5 years in prison, but no more than that. Give them a chance to repent, I say. For 2nd and 3rd offenses, though, I would not be merciful. They've been warned.

I never got why Christians make such a big stink about homosexuality. I mean, if the Christians are right, all the world's gays and lesbians are going to hell, so why does it matter?
And the reason beastiality and pedophilia are outlawed is because the other parties(animals and children) don't have the capacity to consent. And the country isn't "turning" it's back to God's Law, we have been giving it the cold shoulder since the onset. It is even written in the Bill of Rights, one of the documents our government is based on.
And what punishment would you suggest for 2nd or 3rd time offenders? Stoning sound familiar?
There is a reason god should stay out of our government: so that we don't become our enemies.
... I wonder if any of them have caught on about King David and his good buddy Jonathan ...
II Samuel 1:26 - "very pleasant has thou been unto me: thy love to me was wonderful, passing the love of woman."
and of course, as I Kings 15:5 says, "... David did [that which was] right in the eyes of the Lord, and turned not aside from any [thing] that he commanded him all the days of his life, save only in the matter of Uriah the Hittite."
... interesting.
And lets ban sex for reasons other than creating children while we're at it! *rolleyes*
Also, "God's law"? He apparently means those "laws" in Levictus and Deutronomy...
Let's see:
22:28 If a man find a damsel that is a virgin, which is not betrothed, and lay hold on her, and lie with her, and they be found;
22:29 Then the man that lay with her shall give unto the damsel's father fifty shekels of silver, and she shall be his wife; because he hath humbled her, he may not put her away all his days.
...
22:23 If a damsel that is a virgin be betrothed unto an husband, and a man find her in the city, and lie with her;
22:24 Then ye shall bring them both out unto the gate of that city, and ye shall stone them with stones that they die; the damsel, because she cried not, being in the city; and the man, because he hath humbled his neighbour's wife: so thou shalt put away evil from among you.
(there are so many ways to force a person not to cry out - gag, threatening with death, knocking uncouncious, and so on)
And thats only from Deut 22. Anyone who bothers can find even more. Like that little law that allows you to marry slaves against there will. Oh, and slavery of cause. No problem here.
2-5 years locked up with only people of the same sex to keep you company is not going to 'cure' you of being gay. I personally am a lesbian because thats the way I am, no excuses, no apologies. Can't beat it out of me, can't pray ot out of me.
I just hurt my stomach remembering the post from a couple of months ago - the preacher who taught that the best way to ensure your son won't turn out to be gay is to bring him into the shower with you and show him your penis.
By the way, is there going to be some kind of year-end vote where we can pick the best submissions from the entire year?
First off.. While I wouldn't personally try it, bestiality is only illegal in *some* states. Second, having seen at least one video out of curiousity, I am unclear, at least in cases like dogs and women, how someone on all fours can 'force' a non consenting dog to jump on them and start humping. Sure as hell looks like the dog is 'choosing' to do it. lol
But seriously, its not even about consent. Its about paranoia and fear, like everything else they hate. At least a medical reason could have *some* validity, if not for the fact that normal sex is probably as dangerous, in the wrong places with the wrong people, if not more so, since they already have human diseases, not one that has a 1 in 10 billion chance (at a guess) of jumping species.
Warning someone that you will treat them unfairly, does NOT make it right to treat them unfairly.
So mind your own fucking business.

Pedophilia and bestiality are illegal because they cause hurt to someone. Homosexuality does not.

It's the gays' country too, is it not? And their country shouldn't stand in the way of their wanting to be married.
