Shellfish, pork, sodomy (even opposite-sex sodomy) and the list goes on. Have you actually read the Bible?

Read it at least every week. You do realize that Christ fulfilled the scriptures, leading us to the knowledge to be able to consume shellfish and pork safely, right? There has been no such fulfillment for sodomy or homosexuality.Shellfish, pork, sodomy (even opposite-sex sodomy) and the list goes on. Have you actually read the Bible?
This verse is in the Bible.Rather than cherry-pick that particular book of the Bible, why not read it in its entirety and weep at a few other "abominations."
Because, Red Lobster is NOT trying to make laws forcing me to eat their food.Like Shogun alluded to, why don't you and all you other bigots picket Red Lobster?

Then how can it be cherry picking?!?!

No, you're forcing society to accept your definition of marriage.
Then call it something else, like farriage. Get it? Fairy Marriage.No, I'm not. Civil marriage is a legal contract between two people - that's precedent. Your silly argument only holds water if homosexuals were asking the government to force churches into marrying them.

One disruption and a threat. Big deal. Even if the APA was bullied into changing its position, there are many other reputable organizations that have concluded that it is okay to be gay.
They have even concluded that there is no significant difference in children raised by gay couples when compared to children raised by straight couples.

But, actually, some same-sex birds do do it. So do beetles, sheep, fruit bats, dolphins, and orangutans. Zoologists are discovering that homosexual and bisexual activity is not unknown within the animal kingdom.
The APA was bullied and who are these other "reputable" organizations that say its ok to be gay and is backed by authentic scientific research and not politically correct activism?
LMAO, you haven't been reading current scientific research have you? Read and weep:
Psychol Rep. 2008 Aug;103(1):275-304.
Re-evaluation of the "no differences" hypothesis concerning gay and lesbian parenting as assessed in eight early (1979-1986) and four later (1997-1998) dissertations.
Schumm WR.
Academic and policy effects of eight early dissertations on gay and lesbian parenting are discussed with a focus on their having been cited at least 234 times in over 50 literature reviews, beginning with Gottman in 1989 and 1990. Most literature reviews, referencing these eight early dissertations and agreeing with Gottman's early conclusions, have reiterated the theme that parenting by gay men or lesbians has outcomes no different than parenting by heterosexual parents. Here it is proposed that certain potential adverse findings may have been obscured by suppressor effects which could have been evaluated had multivariate analyses been implemented. Further, several adverse findings were detected by reanalyzing data where sufficient information was yet available. Some of the dissertations' results (absent controls for social desirability and other differences between homosexual and heterosexual parents) supported the 2001 "no differences" hypothesis discussed by Stacey and Biblarz. Yet, differences were also observed, including some evidence in more recent dissertations, suggesting that parental sexual orientation might be associated with children's later sexual orientation and adult attachment style, among other outcomes. Odds ratios associated with some of the apparent effects were substantial in magnitude as well as statistically significant. Also, more recent research on gay and lesbian parenting continues to be flawed by many of the same limitations as previous research in this area of study, including overlooked suppressor effects.
What is there to weep about? It is just a difference of opinion.
Now, it is the opinion of these people that ultimately matter.
Gay and lesbian parenting enjoys broad support from medical experts. Organizations that have officially supported adoption by same-sex couples include the American Psychological Association, the Child Welfare League of America, the American Bar Association, the American Psychiatric Association, the National Association of Social Workers, the North American Council on Adoptable Children, the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Psychoanalytic Association, and the American Academy of Family Physicians.
Oh. I am so sure that the Child Welfare League doesnt care enough about child welfare to review information that it has received concerning gay parenting. Yeah. Right. It would rather bow to this alleged gay mafia. Similarly, the pediatric associations dont care about kids. They were duped by the pressure groups. Of course the Council on Adoptable Children isnt concerned about what is in the best interest of children. They are interested in what is in the best interest of gay groups. Look. The proof is in the pudding. When it comes down to it, look at the groups and organizations whose goal it is to care about the interest of the kids. I think that most of the time you will find that they think that gay parenting is okay. Dont tell me that gay pressure groups bullied all of the above organizations or that the organizations are too ignorant and were swayed by faulty research. It is part of there job to find out what is best for kids. So it seems to me that they would be careful with what research information that they receive. It is reasonable to conclude that they have looked at much of the literature, and even got to know and assist gay and straight parents, and that based on experience and research, they see that it is okay to be gay parents.
Next.
Difference of opinion? LOL, looks more like that PC theory that homos wave around as proof isn't completely factual after all. Where is the research by these so called "reputable organisations" that confirms anything? gays did bully the APA and not all of the members of the APA were in complete agreement anyways. A house with a male and female parent is best for kids, not a house with two mommies or daddies.
I sufficiently argued my case. You asked for a list. I gave it to you. It is reasonable to conclude that those organizations that care for kids would not be readily bullied by a gay mafia or easily duped by faulty research. I am not going to waste my time on a scavenger hunt gathering examples of their evaluations and experiences.
BS, you haven't proven anything. As far as the APA they were basically forced into making their decision on homosexuality. You can't find and research and or evaluations by these people because none exist.
