So which rights should gays be given by the state? Should they be allowed to get married? Have kids? Serve in the military? This issue seems to be one of those subjects that everyone has an opinion on.

It’s a complex question. But here’s my simple answer: Give unto them whichever right you’d give unto yourself. In the words of that famous Jewish sage:

“That which is hateful to you, do not do to your fellow. That is the whole of God’s teachings (the Torah); the rest is the explanation; go and learn.” (Hillel the Elder, 1st century BCE)

There you have it. Love thy gays just as you love thyself, you vag-licking heteros.
