This bill is disgusting, if people want to better themseleves why should they be denied?  What are we going to ban next, rehab clinics for alcoholics?

That you would even compare the two makes me want to spit on you if I ever ran into you in person.

I have to agree, that was absolutely disgusting.  You imply (actually more than imply) that homosexuality is a disease that those afflicted with should be cured from, if possible.  I would say these things are true about alcoholism.  Homosexuality was taken off the American Psychiatric Associations list of disorder iirc in the 1970's.

What I am implying is that people feel that homosexually is something that they cannot live with and want to try and help themselves, the government should not be in the business of telling them they can't just as much as they should not be in the business of telling them homosexuality is wrong.  The country is taking a dangerous path of giving not an equal field to homosexuals and heterosexuals but putting homosexuals on a pedestal

And you still sicken me.

The only thing sickening here is your disgust for the constitution.  You feel that because your a homosexual and that others feel your lifestyle is wrong, you should be able to squash them.  Why not allow the free exchange of ideas?   Hell, I think astrologers do harm to people, but I am not going to shut them down.

Someone watching stars and telling people predictions that rarely come true is comperable to brainwashing and abusing people who cannot accept themselves, sometimes by violant methods? Really?

Indeed.  Some people make life decisions based on this advice, sometimes devestating.  I suggest watching the Penn and Teller special on astrology, a woman thought her child dying of lupus would be alright because an astrologer said so

Well, my next bill will probably be for legalizing electrical shocks as a legal cure, since banning it could bar some people of searching the happiness.

As long as we aren't forcing it upon people, why not? We allow acupuncture. Hell, we allow women to wax their entire bodies. That has to hurt a ton. But they want it for nothing more than comfort and external beauty, so who am I to judge?

I agree, its not the gov't decision to tell people what is and isn't right, it is there to decision to find it out on their own.

Nay

It would be intersting to know why you voted nay on the amended bill.

Maybe because he likes freedom?  I don't know just a shot in the dark
