I'm not Mitt Romney. I have no pearls to clutch, no fancy stool upon which to pass out. But I am unfortunately aware of the reality of this situation, which for some reason, due either to ego or the 'seeing-red' glee of moving in on a potential kill, many otherwise wise minds seem to be turning a blind eye toward.
There are groups of individuals who believe homosexuality leads society directly to the acceptance of pedophilia. I know this, I've talked to them. They see it as a decline of morality, as an acceptance of moral relativism wherein morality is relative to nothing, instead of, say, a God or some other standard. They base this idea off of the bible. Their belief in the bible stems from their belief in God, their invisible, infallible, omniscient creator. The same people believe that everything on the news, everything that takes place in politics is left-wing propaganda; global warming, economic catastrophe, NDAA, GITMO, 9/11, the Kennedy Assassination, you name it. It can be tied to a seedy shadow government run by reptilian overlords answering to the Anti-Christ (Obama) whose diabolical plan begins with everyone getting health care.

I'm not a callous, theocratic, right-wing nut job. I'm not an Austrian moral-relativist who, in the same breath, claims moral relativism doesn't exist to prove the moral superiority of their 'non-aggression principles' and 'right to discriminate constitutional interpretations'.
