Honesty IS good, but hatred begets hatred

Venomous? Hateful? Not hardly. Being honest used to be a good thing. I know people who are homo and dont go around beating them up.

Violence is not only a matter of the physical. Your particular brand of violence falls under the emotional/spiritual category. It is the same brand of violence committed by passive bigots in the 1950s deep south. MLK wrote his Letter from a Birmingham Jail not to those who were turning the firehoses on blacks, but to his fellow clergyman who were counseling restraint and acceptance to those who were experiencing discrimination and oppression.

BUT if the movement suddenly shifted to "EMBRACE" adultery, pedophilia, being a thief and lying,I would be there just as loudly saying it is wrong!

I would like to assume by "movement" you are referring to gay rights activists, though I get the feeling you are referring to homosexuals as a single unit instead. This is a tragic error in reasoning, as I am sure you would not like me to lump yourself and Bush in the same category even though you are both Christians. But back to the point, I challenge you to produce a single individual or group who is championing the rights of adulterers, pedophelia, stealing, or lying (not sure how the last two have even a single connection to this discussion).

You cannot throw the blanket of morals away just because it feels good and makes you happy. There are absolute rights and wrongs. That lifestyle is against the LAWS of GOD "and" The Laws of NATURE!

Well, this is a legitimate point of contention, isn't it? You feel as though you have a monopoly on morality based on, in my opinion, a tragically flawed and decontextualized reading of the bible. Whereas I feel that there is nothing inherent in homosexuality that violates the laws of God. As for the laws of nature, there are plenty of examples that contradict this argument in sexual terms. Lust is animalistic and even housepets will hump anything they can wrap their paws around. In terms of Love, this is a strictly human construct, so homosexulity, like heterosexuality, is unique to the human experience and therefore has no context exterior to it from which to draw conclusions.

Why should that be taught to young and impressionable kids? It would be one thing if they were struggling with it, but they are embracing it and teaching our kids to do the same!

If sexuality was something that could be taught, then there would be no homosexuals. Think about it. All children are born to a pairing of male/female, so where would existing homosexuals have "learned" their behavior? Not to mention that there appears no causal relationship amongst children raised in homosexual households.

I cannot stand there and say NOTHING! People like you may call it hateful, I call it honest. ...

I'm not trying to infringe on your free speech. In fact, I hope I've made it clear that I am trying to engage you on an intellectual level, attacking your ideas and not you personally. But I think you missed the point of my last post - your words are being perceived as offensive not because of the specific word you're choosing, but because your intent is to cause offense. When someone who clearly despises homosexuality as much as you do, then that person will be hard-pressed to find phraseology that won't be deemed offensive. This is your cross to bear - just as the bigots in the 1950s had to go on television to defend segregation, you will have to also prepare to weather attacks from the more open, inviting, and inclusive elements of society. I hold no illusions that I am going to change your mind and I will continue to love and respect you even when we disagree so strongly. But there will come a day (a generation or two from now) when homophobes will be regarded with the same contempt we now hold for racial bigotry - and then you will have to endure explaining to your children and grandchildren why you hold the opinions that you do.
