2. The reason I threw that example out is becasue it's already happening in Canada. Three months or so ago (barely 6 months after Canada redefined marriage), a school district in BC became the first to come up with a sex ed curriculm that would be taught side by side with the traditional sex ed curric.
Is that a good thing, considering that adolescents begin dealing with their ever changing bodies and raging hormones, to have the govt treat homosexuality as a norm? Afterall, the natural order of things is hetherosexuality. Think about it.

Bigot:
One who is strongly partial to one's own group, religion, race, or politics and is intolerant of those who differ.
You are strongly partial to a group defined by sexual orientation, your so-called "normal" group, and you are intolerant of those who differ, the non-"normal" group.

So, better safe than sorry: just in case you're right, we must discriminate against gays.
You have a long list of justifications for your need to discriminate, but in the end, you have no idea if you're right. And so by default, you discriminate. Otherwise .... something catastrophic will happen?
That's not the "normal", default behavior of a human being. Your behavior is a sociological by-product of your environment. Maybe brought about by latent homosexual feelings to which you have been programmed to feel shame, maybe brought about by sexual abuse when you were younger - I can't possibly know - but I do know it's not normal.
