As in, being taught that being gay is okay in schools? That some people are gay? Of course that should be taught in schools.

Affirmative Action and Gay Marriage are different topics

-And I agree. I don't feel that most gays want to change the church. I just don't want to grant them this victory because their struggle to gain gay marriage rights is already being manipulated and used by liberal politicians, and if the gays succeed then the liberal politicians will use the gay's victory to their benefit. For example they might start to say "Hey, if gays can get married then we should also teach their ways in our schools" and when it gets to the schools and reaches the young students it will undermine what parent's teach and what their religion teaches. Creationism can not be taught in schools for obvious reasons (other than the fact it is bull shit), so if a rule like that should be enforced then the church has a right to say "well then you can't MAKE LAWS allowing gays to get dressed up and get married in front of an alter with a phony minister in the mean time making a joke out of a sacred ritual that dates back 100 years." I think gays should get the benefits, but no marriage and no wedding.

What do you mean "their ways"? Some people are gay, get over it, it should be taught in schools.
What their religion teaches? If a religion says something that is pretty much refuted by science, then it shouldn't be taught in schools.
Why? Why should gays not be allowed to have a marriage ceremony that people dream about having from childhood on? It's not a minister, and it's in a courtroom... What's wrong with having a small ceremony?

-So you agree then that modern day gays are not second class citizens? They had harsh treatment in the past, but the lack of a few benefits given to married couples hardly supports the argument that they are currently second class citizens.
-And I addressed earlier in this post that i think benefits are good, but should be obtained by different means.

Again, I'll repeat, why? Why should gays be treated differently from straight people? Separate but equal =/= the same
