>I'm mostly conservative but these two issues bother me.  I do not understand how people being openly gay or gay marriage hurts anyone or our society.  It also seems obvious to me that though abortion is a horrible thing it is not as horrible as an unwanted, neglected, abused, starving, or abandoned child and is therefore the lesser of two evils.

If you are going to say gay relationships or marriage are illegal because the Bible forbids them then wouldn't you also have to make a Christian marrying someone who doesn't believe in the teachings of Christ illegal and so forth?  The Bible is pretty harsh when it comes to condemning non-believers.
