re: Once Gay Rights Are Fully Recognized...What Is The Next Civil Rights Frontier?

Perhaps so, when animals and young children possess the faculties to give consent.
Because grown men and women can consent to sex, marriage, and trade, among other things. Children, and likewise animals, are not afforded this ability.
It's not a question of whether or not homosexuality is innate, natural, etc., but whether or not two (perhaps more) self-owning adults are allowed to enter into a contract with one another.

My question is, if we give full marriage rights to one (and we should), what ACTUAL reason is there for denying the other?

Animals yes, but what makes a 14 year old less able to consent than an 18 year old? Our ages of consent are arbitrary and most humans in history were just fine with adults having sex with what we would call children.
Moreover, are we asking people genuinely attracted to "children" to remain celibate their entire lives? If so, are we not being hypocritical after using that same argument against those who would prevent gay marriage?
To blow this off as an easy "they are sick fricks" issue is intellectually dishonest.

When sex is involved, anything goes. That's why it's legal to kill unborn humans, for homosexuals to openly flaunt their perversion while society gives them a high five.
It's only a matter of time before any and all restraints concerning sex are dusted away.

According to the very doctors who decide if it is a sexual orientation, yes they can.
To word it another way, doctors disagree with you and say it is a positive experience for them in most cases.
Sick isn't it....
