What the heck does same-sex marriage have to do with "crimes against nature"? Note, that same-sex relationships exist /throughout/ nature and marriage itself is not "natural".

Me thinks your biases and agenda is showing...

I don't necessarily agree with his point but homosexuality (/sodomy/buggery) used to be categorized as a crime against nature: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime_against_nature
I knew someone was thick enough to make that remark, seemingly unaware of the two different meanings of the word "nature".

1. Basic or inherent characteristics of something. What GP is trolling about.

2. The entire global ecosystem and physical phenomena on planet Earth or the Universe at large. What I was talking about.
