Who teaches kids about gay marriage in school? I'm genuinely curious to see an established example of someone who does this (not any singular incidents). That argument is moot unless you can prove to me that there is a school district that has such a thing in their curriculum.

Well then lets just say fuck it all and throw out all morals and principles taught to children.

...I don't think it's the purview of the public school system to tell any kid what to think about any sex. That's the parent's job.
Also, teaching kids about morals and principles does fuckall, if you're willing to be honest about it. I'm not saying to not teach kids morals and principals, I'm saying that it's entirely up to the kid and his/her peer group, as well as his/her parents whether or not such teaching sticks.
Case in point - I went to a high school where probably 75% of the student body were practicing Baptists. That means Sunday mornings and Wednesday nights, they were in church. Prayer groups before school, church functions all the time, crosses around their neck, etc. A great majority of these students were the ones having premarital sex, drinking underage, getting knocked up, getting high, getting into fights, stealing cars, etc. You can thump a bible (or other religious text) all you want, but it doesn't make you a better person.

How you bring a child up has no bearing on the sexual preference. Maybe I took that statemtn out of context, but it didn't make sense to me.

If I wasn't married, I'd be all over that, Ib.
If gays were allowed in the military (and same-sex marriages), you'd see ALL KINDS of same sex marriages between straight guys just to get better benefits.
