    your right there is no gay gene as such
    but its down to chromosones that are split into y and x or male and female chromosones men have one y(male) and one x (female) women have xx chromosones where as they have found that some gay/effeminete men have xxy

    Really? Do you have a link to that research?

    I am aware of the make up of chromosomes,;) my point was in regard to the findings re the make up of those of gay men.

    Where is the study which shows that particularly?

    If they want to get married then they should have the same rights as anyone else

    That's really kind of funny..if being Homosexual is perfectly normal as we are told,then how the hell did they come into existence.

    No i dont believe it should be recognised..doesn't it say in the bible about man must not lay with another,its thirty years since i looked at a bible but think its something like that.

    If someone wants to join any private institution they abide by the rules or go elsewhere. That is the same for all, straight or gay.

    Isn't it illegal for private institutions to unjustly discriminate on certain grounds? It would (quite rightly) be illegal for me to set up a nightclub that had a "no gays" or "no blacks" policy, for example.

    Civil marriage has to be enough for many who do not fit the criteria for a church wedding.

    My sister doesn't "fit the criteria" for a church wedding (she's atheist), but she was able to get married. Actually, I think it would have been illegal for her to be in a civil partnership.

    The church does NOT have a monopoly on marriage.

    Have you really not noticed that heterosexual parents can have homosexual children? That's obviously how they came about! Just like in the rest of the animal kingdom.

    It's been thirty years since you looked at a Bible?! Either you're a really bad Christian, in which case your input on the religion is going to be taken with a pinch of salt anyway, or you're not Christian in which case you're nuts if you're using a random book as justification for your prejudices.
