ROFL!

Had to share this.

I go to a web site where there's a lot of debate over gay marriage -- lots of really ignorant comments made, but always some very witty comebacks (that make a lot of sense, too).

So, the progression went something like this:

The question was asked, if we let gays marry, then why not let men marry monkeys or grandmothers marry their grandsons, etc. I'm sure you've heard them all before. So, the standard replies of "informed consent" and "consent to a contract" are made, but then the original poster claims that homosexuality is not about love, it's about sex. Someone else jumps in with how, if a homosexual truly loves their partner, they wouldn't ask them to "sin" by continuing the relationship. Someone pops in with the comment that homosexuality is biological, not spiritual, and so the question is asked "If it's biological, and there was a test for it, would you support abortion of the fetus if it was determined that the fetus would be homosexual?"

The reply, simply stated, was that "I'm thinking though, if they could detect homosexuality before birth, that suddenly abortion would become a sacrament to the Christian right."
