Allowing gay marriage and putting less social stigma on gay hookups in general, ironically, might DECREASE the number of gays in the future.
That is, we might have less gays marrying the opposite sex, either supressing their urge to have sex with the same sex, or getting some on the down-low. Gays marrying the opposite sex have children. And pass on their genes.
So, if you wanted to "eradicate" gays through eugenics, you would support gay marriage. Someone please pass this onto the church. If gays are eradicated through this, then the church won't ever have to explain to Sister Smith why her son Jimmy ended up gay, beyond the sort of statement we frequently hear from Mormons: Sister Smith raised a son who made the choice to be gay.
Boy there are so many ironies in all of this. Is the church going to put out a news release explaining how the practice of polygamy destroys the family?
Don't lose faith, my friends. Inmates do from time to time run the asylum, but there reign isn't permanent.
