You keep bringing up "special rights". Apparently, you're just going to ignore the list of rights that blacks, Jews, Hispanics, Christians, Muslims, Hindus, Latinos, Mormons, Bhuddists, and women have that gays do not, and concentrate solely on the issue of gay marriage.

Convenient, from your standpoint, I guess, but how is one supposed to argue a point with you, when you don't want to address the bulk of the conversation.

If your boss can walk in and say "Jim you're fired. Because you're a Christian." and get away with it, something is wrong. Just like it's wrong if he were to walk in and say "Jim you're fired. Because you're gay." In my opinion, Jim should be protected in either case provided he's doing his job.

You disagree?

zip You can't fire, not hire, house or lend to someone in this state (Washington) soley because they're a homosexual or lesbian.

So to keep bringing that (employment) up or comparing them (homosexuals and lesbians) to a race, religion or gender whose prospective employment needs to be protected is a red herring.
