 Bill, you have a very good point here, and that is that murder, rap,
 and theft must first have something in common with homosexuality for
 it to be classified with it.

 Well, what if we said PhediphiliaPhobia? Lets see...
 HomoPhobia is a fear of someone?
 MurderPhobia is a fear of something?
 PhediphiliaPhobi is a fear of someone doing something?

 We do have a fear of homosexuals, that is that they will fool other
 people into thinking it is normal and okay, especially when it involves
 children.

 The Gay rights movement wants complete sexual freedom not just homosexual
 freedom.  If it is against the law to inflict bodily harm on anyone then
 something going where it doesn't fit (in other words, PAIN) should be
 against the law.

 But, where did these laws come from?

 Well it all boils down to what society defines to be right in its eyes.
 We live in a society.  So society decides what's "okay" by law and not
 "okay" by law.  The process of deciding what should and should not be
 law used to be mostly based on the Bible.  What does the Bible say?
    1) Sex outside of marriage is wrong.
       a) are most homosexuals married? no.
       b) what marriage is considered holy before God? heterosexual. (only)
    2) When men have turned away from God, God will
       turn them over to their evil desires and they
       will exchange natural relations with women for
       unnatural relations with men.
  
 Now if you do not believe in the Bible that is your free choice, but
 our ancestors made previous laws based on what you just read.

 So, if you don't believe in the Bible then what?
 I asked my roommate, who does not believe the Bible to be the word of
 God, how you explain sexual attraction.  His response was that it was
 necessary for the continuation of a species.
 Hmmm...
 Homosexuality does not lead to the continuation of a species!

 Well what if it is a cultural thing?
 YEAH RIGHT!  If you believe that then try and find someone else who 
 believes it also and come back to earth when you've found them.

 What about population control?
 What about it? There isn't a shortage of land just city space, so find
 some land and live there.

 Summary, as long as the majority of the people know that it is wrong
 they will continue to try and discourage and even out law the activity.
 To say we are HomoPhobes is weak and childish.  We believe in standards
 and morals which preserve a society and it's structure.  Less structure,
 less strength.
