Religious homophobes: Besides marriage rights, what other rights do you want to deny to the LGBT community?

Perhaps you think they shouldn't be allowed to vote? Do you think they should be denied the right to a speedy trial?

Why do you single out marriage? Do you think it makes your bigotry more acceptable if you limit yourselves to denying them marriage rights?

(I asked this question in LGBT put I'm reposting it here to get the views of religious homophobes because none answered me there.)

Update:

again: I learned that the word "bigot" applies to anybody who wants to deny rights to other people. I would consider people who want to deny others of marriage rights "bigots."

Angel: I didn't say anybody actually wanted to deny homosexuals those rights. I am simply trying to understand which rights people want to deny homosexuals, and I used those as examples of rights that are clearly given to all people in the U.S. Constitution.

    i remember one right-wing fundie said 'it cheapens his marriage.' how cheap can marriages be when more than 50% end in divorce? i've met people who have been married more than once. marriage is really a bargain at such low price.

    Talk about going on a tangent. Don't be daffy who said you can't vote or get a speedy trial. Its people like you that tick others off , so who in their right mind would agree with you. Stick with the issue and not lie about things that no one even has brought up.

    They probably won't answer you here either. They do not want to be confronted with their hate program. They want to hate and try to bully others but they don't want to discuss it. After all they REALLY love everyone but hate sin, (defined by them).

    It matters not that you may have different lifestyles or a different religion it all has to be defined and approved by their rules and their interpretation.

    how about giving birth to a baby - but I guess I might be too late for that with the pregnant "dad"

    It might just be me, but the gay men I know would hate to placed in the same category as lesbians, let alone bisexuals or transsexuals. Where IS this community, exactly?

    Being opposed to gay marriage does not make a person a homophobe or a bigot. Stop trying to use labels to intimidate.

    LGBT is not my thing. but you guys are better people.

    No SPECIAL rights. I cannot talk about my sex life at work because that falls under "sexual harassment." No homosexual should be allowed to talk about their sex life, either.

    I find it offensive that homosexuals try to equate themselves in status to the disabled, the elderly, or to other legitimate minorities. If you don't want to be judged by what you do in the bedroom, then keep what you do in your bedroom IN YOUR BEDROOM and don't tell the world.
