Notice the contortions that the right has to go through in order to put up the facade of winning something--nay, even, the facade of participating in the discussion.
Will didn't say the Abrahamic religions were the primary religions that were opposed to homosexuality, and all your ranting about Buddhism and Hindu is nothing but a troll. What he said was that the anti-gay sentiment in our country is based in the anti-gay sentiment of the Abrahamic religions. It may well be based in other religions in other countries--that's not what he was saying.
The bottom line is, the
belief that homosexuality is wrong is fundamentally a religious one. It is inappropriate for our country or any state to make law based on religion. In any modern society, a concern for civil rights always trumps a concern based in religious morality.
