I don't consider having to see evidence of values you disagree with when you go out to be having them imposed on you.

There are five churches in my town & billboards & notices & ppl wearing crosses. Christianity is not imposed on me by any of this.

Unless you are forced to have same sex relationships or go to church, nothing is being imposed on you by other people doing either.

I'd go further than this. As a Christian, I know that hostility by the world is a feature, not a bug. So why get bent out of shape?
-
Some people will always be hostile to LGBTs, Christians & more. I'd encourage not being & advocate prosecuting acts of aggression.
-
Agreed, and again for a Christian it goes further. All of us are called to be a reflection of Christ in all circumstances.

But people interpret Christ differently. Christianity is dominant here. State religion. Lots of rights no one else at all holds.
-
And as a Christian (a conservative too), I'd argue for severing the ties. Marriage of church and state is the kiss of death for the church.
-
Its the only reason its still relevant here. Less than 1% of Brits go to church regularly but it is still very powerful moral authority.

Is homosexuals not imposed on Christians though? Why should homosexuals have the right to marry (a religious concept) [in a church for ex]?

still a open debate. "civil union" is a option that does not involve the church or its' officials. same societal benefits, no cleric
