California Voters Approve Gay-Marriage Ban

I won't be sinking to those depths Rex to prop up my case. Are you trying to suggest that those of us who support Prop 8 are in favour of such things or think it any less evil than you do? Don't you think that even a hint of such a suggestion is grossly insulting.

And I'll tell you something else too. This "they" stoned homosexuals in the Bible stuff is a complete travesty. Isn't "they" such a convenient word. They stoned everybody. You got off or you got stoned. Stealing a sheep, pulling faces at the judges. And a lot of it was to do with family and tribal feuds. And there was no judiciary, or fines or prisons. 50 lashes was our one week probation. All in different villages dotted all over the place with no motorways.

It does apear that by definition that spendius is a bigot,

A Cabinet minister is ready to take legal action to halt a series of increasingly lurid but baseless rumours sweeping Westminster over his sexuality, The Daily Telegraph has learnt.

Westminster; Cabinet minister may act over false claims of gay affairs

The minister, who is married, has been accused of having an affair with a Whitehall official and of having a long-term relationship with a journalist. He has strongly denied the allegations. Senior Downing Street aides are braced this weekend for “suggestive” reports to begin surfacing over the Cabinet minister’s private life.

Friends of the minister have warned that he will not hesitate to take “action” should unfounded allegations that he is homosexual, which are circulating on the internet, appear in mainstream medi

It is not clear whether this action would take the form of an injunction or a threat to sue following publication.

“He is happily married and is not gay, it is as simple as that,” said one source.

“He will not hesitate before taking the necessary action should someone overstep the mark and suggest something which is not true.”

The warning came as Crispin Blunt, a junior Tory minister in the Coalition, announced that he was separating from his wife to allow him to “come to terms with his homosexuality”.

Mr Blunt, the prisons minister, said there was nobody else involved and appealed for his family’s privacy to be respected.

It is not thought that his announcement was precipitated by any imminent newspaper revelation.

The Cabinet minister has faced repeated questions about his private life over the past few months. In recent weeks, The Daily Telegraph, along with several other newspapers, received details of two alleged male lovers of the Cabinet minister.

Photographers were present outside the home of one of the men, whose family are thought to have left the country.

The other alleged lover, a journalist, has also been approached by reporters over an apparent affair.

However, a source close to the man told this newspaper: “He has never met the minister. As someone who works in the media, he has never even been in the same room as him.”

He added: “If he was asked about an affair and it was true, he’d say publicly that he didn’t want to comment on a personal relationship.

“But in this case he doesn’t want to give the claims any credibility by publicly refuting them.”

It would be highly unusual for a Cabinet minister to instruct lawyers over an allegation surrounding their private life.

In the past, ministers have simply publicly denied such untrue allegations.

In 1991, the then chancellor, Norman Lamont, denied knowing anything about his London flat being used as a sex parlour after a Sunday newspaper claimed it had been rented out to a prostitute.

Unusually, he threatened legal action against anyone who “publishes anything which reflects adversely on me or my wife”.

Friends of the Cabinet minister hope that the threat of legal action will deter unfounded rumours surfacing publicly. The use of injunctions has been thrown into controversy recently after several footballers used the legal system to stop newspapers from disclosing details about their private lives.

However, these cases are different because the allegations are not unfounded, but are regarded by a judge as an invasion of their privacy.

The warning came as Crispin Blunt, a junior Tory minister in the Coalition, announced that he was separating from his wife to allow him to “come to terms with his homosexuality”.

You are wrong about your homophobic religion and wrong about your hate... and still you think it is right.

TWO WRONGS DON'T MAKE A RIGHT...

Persecuted homosexuals are the fruits of your wrongs... and you claim to support life...

Hypocrites.

It's as clear as a bell, but some people fail to hear it.
