I figured that. My point was that such actions were done in the past to “legislate morality”, but such social sanctions for bad behavior vanished into the politically correct landscape.

When shame is removed, why be surprised if people behave shamefully?

Two quick things:
DarthRove–I don’t want people to advocate those things. I also don’t think gay marriage should be banned. My point is that anyone who cites ‘protection of marriage’ as a justification for banning gay marriage should also work to legislate morality in those other ways.

Second, as an aside, I’m with John Deaux–AzN’s comment was over the line, but he should not be banned for it. I enjoy reading this blog particularly because commentators will disagree with each other, and call each other out when need be.

I hope you’re joking about peer-reviewed journals. If not, then there’s really no point in discussing science with you.

Global warming removed any integrity that peer-reviewed journals once enjoyed.

AzN crossed the line and was called on it. It’s definitely not ban-worthy.

Personally, I enjoy AzN’s perspective on a wide range of topics, just as I enjoyed Blind Mule’s. If we keep allowing trolls to be offended and get commenters banned, there will be nobody left but the trolls, and that’s exactly what they want.

If you really want to prevent the decline of marriage as an institution, then work to penalize divorce, penalize out-of-wedlock birth, and penalize couples for living together without marrying.

But those actions are hateful, racist, intolerant, old-fashioned, and equivalent to forcing morality onto people. Or so the left has told us for the past 40 years or so. You reaaaaaally want people to advocate these actions, or are you just looking for another goat to scape?

My heartfelt thank you to the gaynazis for publishing such a wonderful list, you saved me lots of work in seeing who supports traditional family values.

For everybusiness that you list, I will check with the manager, and if its true then I will support them with my MONEY and future business.

Likewise, any business that advertises in the gay yellow pages, I will boycott and its already cost me from eating at my favorite pizza restruant in Memphis. Its a sacrifice that I am willing to vote with my wallet.

So gays, keep up the good work and see how much more you can offend people from coming to your point of view. The next stop is to start getting law enforcement, DA’s and the courts to start equally applying the hate crimes laws against you.

I don’t see how gay marriage, an institution which doesn’t exist in 98% of the states, could possibly be the cause of this

because of Kurtz’ research in the netherlands…which you do not believe…even though he quotes dutch researchers…sigh…

I think we agree that if marriage is made meaningless, then marriage will decline. It looks like we differ as to where gay marriage fits into this. You seem to think gay marriage is causing marriage to become meaningless. On the other hand, I think that marriage has been growing increasingly meaningless apart from gay marriage. The large number of out-of-wedlock children, divorces, and couples cohabitating without marrying would seem to point to a general decline in society placing a value on marriage as an institution. I don’t see how gay marriage, an institution which doesn’t exist in 98% of the states, could possibly be the cause of this. Rather, I think gay marriage is an outgrowth of this decline of the traditional importance of marriage.
If you really want to prevent the decline of marriage as an institution, then work to penalize divorce, penalize out-of-wedlock birth, and penalize couples for living together without marrying.
