In the fourth paragraph of Phil Magnan's article he says:

"Defining a Homosexual relationship as loving and monogamous ignores the reality of same sex relationships. Many say that the premise on which we should accept same sex unions is that some of them are "loving, monogamous relationships." Same sex unions may be loving and monogamous from a worldly viewpoint, but if they had “real godly love” they would not subject each other to unnatural sexual activity that leads each other into sin. When we lead others into sin, we are no longer walking in love. In regards to homosexual monogamy, homosexuals remain faithful to one partner about 25% of the time. This is a much lower fidelity rate, than their heterosexual counterparts, which is 80%. It is not unusual for homosexuals to have hundreds of sexual partners in a life time.

Special Note: What kind of stability will be afforded a child who is exposed to that kind of change of a significant other? I also say this against those heterosexuals who also co-habitat, it is unkind to children to expose them to continual relationship changes."

What the hell is that supposed to mean??? He begins with the assumption that being gay is a "sin" (based on his biblically-based perception of the world), and then states that gay parents cannot possibly be loving or monogamous because if they really loved one another they wouldn't be gay. Because, the fact that they are involved in a homosexual relationship proves that they cannot possibly love each other.

Talk about circular reasoning!! Logically speaking, what kind of illogical and irrational word tapdancing is that??? Gay couples can't really love each other, because if they really loved each other they wouldn't be trying to really love each other. And the fact that they are really trying to love each other proves that they can't possibly be really trying to love each other..............Ouch, my head is starting to hurt..............

Mr. Magnan then tries to incorporate some semblance of valadity into his argument by quoting statistics that he provides no source for, nor presents in a way that leads us to believe he didn't just pull them out of thin air. He then states, "It is not unusual for homosexuals to have hundreds of sexual partners in a life time." Which is the biggest truckload of fertilizer he has tried to pass off on us so far.

He makes it seem like ALL homosexual people make it a regular practice to engage in as many "immoral, unhealthy, and unnatural" sexual encounters as it is humanly possible to engage in. He also presents it in a way that would seem to imply that such abominable behavior is an extreme rarity in heterosexuals.

Even the most unobservant person can see that Mr. Magnan paints his ridiculous picture with a brush full of prejudice, ignorance, biased propaganda, and homophobic lies. His agenda is not to be objective or truthful, but to push his anti-homosexual, gay-bashing perspective down the throats of anyone who is willing to buy into it.

I love the way he throws in that last line of his "Special Note" to make it seem like he is being totally impartial and fair about everything he is saying. Yet, he still makes no implication that heterosexuals cannot possibly be "loving or monogamous" in the same way he comes right out and says it about gay couples. Mainly because his sole objective in writing his article in the first place is to display gays in the worst light possible.
