The Bible's just used as a shield in hope's no one has the balls to challenge their ignorant archaic beliefs, as in cases like this.

I wouldn't say my beliefs are archaic, I believe we live in a free country where everyone is entitled to an opinion or view. I have absoloutely nothing against same sex couples. See above for my opinion.
I did not post on this thread with the intention of being anti-gay, I am simply arguing for Dave's right to a religous belief.
I'm not sure what your point on western societies fixation with homosexuality is, in my opinion homosexuality is more accepted now than at any other time. I'm not sure what you mean?
