TurnRightThenLeft, will number one be my personal all time favourite?

That the god who created the universe gets really upset that gay males waste sperm.

- A universe with something like 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 stars in it (http://imagine.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/ask_astro/answers/970115.html) and us with eyes capable of resolving about 5000 of the brighter close ones (http://astronomy.swin.edu.au/~gmackie/billions.html).
- A god who's own son was supposedly celebate.
- A god who's churches largest denomination has celebate priests.
- A god who designed human reproductive systems so that when used at capacity only have one sperm used out of millions for each child.

My all time favourite reasons for making life hard for gay males - god does not like sperm to be wasted.

Ha, R0bert, I like your number one better.

No, the number one on the list I found was that gay marriage will cause meteor showers and wipe out life on the planet.

It was from a discussion group satirically entitled 'Gay Marriage Killed the Dinosaurs' in an effort to show how stupidly paranoid most of the reasons raised against it sound.

Regrettably, were I to posit the absurd notion that gay marriage would result in meteor showers, I have a horrible suspicion that a few posters would nod sagely and cite the wrath of god.

TurnRightThenLeft, how about Earthquakes?

"(IsraelNN.com) MK Shlomo Benizri (Shas) caused a tremor Wednesday when he linked between homosexuality and earthquakes. Benizri addressed the subject in the course of a debate in the Knesset plenum on earthquake readiness.

"I suggest that the Knesset inquire into how it can prevent sodomy and thus save us a lot of earthquakes," Benizri said.

He later explained to a reporter that the Gemara calls earthquakes "zevaot" and teaches that they are caused by a number of things, including male homosexuality. "I therefore suggested that in order to limit the damage from earthquakes, it would be better to make fewer laws that encourage sodomy and other perversions, like adoption of children by lesbians," he said."

I think he was serious.
