s/o Taboo Topics...any that you and DH disagree on?

I'll say that I am for gay marriage. My DH, with his religion, is vehemently against it and thinks homosexuality is wrong. I don't think people choose to become gay, he does. It is one topic that we really clash on and have had many debates on. He has even made comments to DS like "Daddy is the ONLY boy you can ever kiss", to which I often reply "Don't worry, if you want to kiss boys, you can kiss boys, Mommy will still love you." Even with my (in my opinion) very valid arguments, he is really By the Bible about it and I can't get him to budge. We really don't disagree on much else but that is a big one.
So are there any "hot topics" that you and your DH disagree on? Different political views, etc?

I think DH would have been quicker to talk about ending a pregnancy if we had found out something was seriously wrong with the baby. I am not as quick to think that. Hopefully we never have to make such a decision.
I am probably still a little more liberal than DH, and more religious/spiritual but we agree on most of the same things.
We have different religious views. DH is agnostic and I believe in God.
However, he still participated in a religious wedding ceremony for me. The church was very important to me because my gparents and parents were married there. It was more about the place than the fact that it was a church. Still, we had a traditional United Methodist ceremony. I loved it.
The two men in my life. Oh, and I have a husband too...

- He says he could NEVER ever adopt... he said he'd always feel detached from the child because it's someone else's. I would have no issues adopting AT ALL. He's not really a kid/baby person though. He has no interest in anyone else's child but ours.
- He blamed every disagreement we had on me having PPD (which I didn't) when Connor was born. Maybe I just needed some help, understanding, sleep and encouragement?! Grrr...
I'll love you forever,
I'll like you for always,
As long as I'm living my baby you'll be.

I don't believe in spanking. DH does. We will obviously have to have some very serious talking/researching/rule setting in the near future. (by which I mean he will eventually agree with me).
We agree on everything else and were just having the "gay" talk with some family members last night. We both believe the bible, but do NOT think being gay is a choice. If the bible says homosexuality is a sin, and the bible says we are born in to sin, why can't people be born gay? Gay people are often treated badly, and people wouldn't just choose to be bullied as teens and ridiculed as adults-sometimes by their closest friends and family- for fun.
He thinks he's awesome, I disagree. Clearly, I'm the awesome one.
This is always my argument with DH! I often challenge him with scenarios like..."If the only 2 couples who could raise our child were a gay couple who would love him more than anything and give him the best of everything or a straight couple who would beat the shiit out of him and leave him to sleep in his own crap for days on end, which would you prefer?" and he always weasels his way out of actually answering.

I am not sure I want to be pregnant again, especially when there are so many kids around that need a home. He would rather use a surrogate if I am not capable of having another baby, but if some other woman is going to carry my baby, to me it would be the same as adopting (not physically mine) so for me it reinforces adoption anyway.

OMG, I love you.
Represent. I never got into Star Trek, but I've watched my fair share of BSG.
I am Locutus of Borg and DH knows resistance is futile. lol
This is fantastic. I am totally picturing Capt. Picard in his Borg days. And yes, I do have the hotttts for Patrick Stewart.
Almost the exact same at our house. We say we want him to be whatever he wants to be. DH thinks I will "make him gay" by telling him he can love and be whatever and whoever he wants. I agree people don't choose to be gay. Who would choose to be hounded and bullied for loving someone? I know it's more accepted in other parts of the world, but not so much in the Midwest.
This is my DH and I. I tend to be more neutral or easy going whereas he is a bit more extreme with his views. And agreeing with the the last few pp we argue enough as it is without throwing different views in the mix!
Yay the Borg and BSG - made my Wednesday!
Me, too!
Superb! I knew I couldn't be alone in that. Engage!
We agree on just about everything. We are both very liberal and fairly tree hugger-ish. I would have to say the only difference is I am a little more out there than DH is. I am willing to give up toilet paper or the washer, and he is not. I am open to the idea of reincarnation, he is not.
Lately, we have been in disagreement about me being a surrogate for my best friend. I am very willing, he doesn't want me to.
You're not alone. I am pretty sure DH has the hots for him too.
Yep. I'm much too passionate about the things I believe in. Being a crazy left of liberal hippie, I find it incredibly odd my perfect match is in the Army!
Yup same here - at least the big things. We disagree on petty things like, whether or not dinosaurs existed
LOL I like to argue with DH about that just to get him fired up.
This.
Wait. There is a group of politicians that we both don't like. He just thinks that they are selfish and greedy, whereas I think that they are evil. I guess that's the only thing we don't agree on.
