    Note, if homosexuality is ultimately confirmed to be a condition one is born with (I tend to believe that, but no conclusive proof exists), THEN the parallel with race becomes stronger.
    I am specifically limiting myself to mentally competent adults only as well.

    The nature and cause of homosexuality is not relevant. This is not about gay rights. Gays have all the rights they need. They are allowed to have sex, to get married, to have a job and to sit anywhere in a bus. What more could they possibly ask for?

    This is about unconstitutional requirements to marry. Mentally competent adult X must be free to marry mentally competent person Y. It is entirely unconstitutional to impose restrictions based on race or sex.
