Discrimination naturally exists in some way, shape or form... earlier in this thread I demonstrated that affirmative action is itself, discriminatory. The real problem is when to draw the line. A lot of people are just like me saying, look, we have to draw a line somewhere because once we go down this road, we can never look back. This will set a precedent that every nutcase down the line can point to, and since we haven't drawn a line on enforcement of discrimination, they'd win.
Has the slippery slope argument not been completely disproven through the course of this thread yet? Maybe it's your self induced myopia instead of the inherently fallacious slippery slope which you keep reverting back to which is the stumbling point here.
This discussion has disproved nothing yet because you've made a lot of statements but backed none of it up with evidence. The slippery slope cannot be disproved just because you say it's disproved.

If we look back on the history of gay demands the slippery slope is very evident. With each demand it's been, "Just give us the right to have a gay parade and we will ask for no more." The Vriend case is an interesting case. He had a teaching position at a Christian College when he declare he was a practicing homosexual. The college had no choice but to let him go according to their teachings. The question is, will the gay community next force their rights on every church as well? I would suggest that is one of the next steps on their agenda. The gay community doesn't seem to be able to tolerate anybody who holds a different life-view from them.
