Gay marriage debate today at the Globe and Mail

The G&M is having an online discussion today on the gay marriage debate.

Here's the question I submitted:

Homosexual relations can never result in procreation, yet homosexual activists both insist that their behaviour is normal and natural and also insist on their "equal right" to children, in the process tacitly nullifying a child's natural right to a mother and a father.

They claim to be for marriage definitions rooted in sexual orientation rather than human biology, and "equal marriage for all", yet have not advanced the case for one of their own constituents, i.e., "bi-sexual marriage". It appears that some sexual orientations are more equal than others.

Could you please discuss the apparent contradictions.

We'll see if they use it. I've noticed that whenever I insensitively bring up the topic of teaching the act of sodomy to our school children as a normal, healthy behaviour, they always nuke the post. Perhaps they think it's impolite to bring up the subject, or perhaps they think it is irrelevant to discussions of homosexuality.

In the end, it's the children that get shafted.

Can we find out which way our member voted?

Follow-up: the G&M did not use my question. Instead, they went with soft-lobs like, "can you comment on the cost to the government of re-opening the same-sex marriage debate".

The G&M seems to ignore a lot of the other costs incurred by the government.

What about the gun registry? What about taxpayers' money being passed out in brown envelopes in Quebec restaurants?

There are lot of questions that don't seem to get asked.
