Same Sex marriage will destroy the morality of the United States. It’s not of God and is an abomination. Gays will burn in the eternal fires of Hell for their chosen life. Marriage is between man and woman. It would have been Adam and Steve instead of Adam and Eve. I remember going to this church and during the pastor sermon he said that if you are a homosexual you’re an atheist because you cannot be that way and believe in God. Do you believe this?
Same Sex marriage is a heated issue throughout the world. It has been debated in the United States that if same sex couples are allowed to marry than that would open legalization of polygamy. Possible Republican presidential candidate in 2012 Mike Huckabee states, the effort to allow gays and lesbians to marry is comparable to legalizing incest, polygamy and drug use.
The Federal Marriage Amendment (S.J. Res. 30) states: “Marriage in the United States shall consist only of the union of a man and a woman. Neither this Constitution, nor the constitution of any State, shall be construed to require that marriage or the legal incidents thereof be conferred upon any union other than the union of a man and a woman.” I can understand people reasoning for what they believe but should what others believe disrupts other people life. People will be with whomever they want to be with, same sex or not.Not allowing same sex marriage in my opinion is unconstitutional and is discrimination. I am going to be biased because this is something that affects me, but I am also a triple minority so rights are very important to me. If all of the lesbian,gay, bisexual, transgendered (lgbt) in the U.S decided they will not pay taxes because the Constitution deny them rights I’m pretty sure that same sex marriage would be taken into consideration. Granted the IRS may enforce jail time but when you don’t live your life openly and living in shame you are in jail anyways.
I grew up in a southern church so I was taught to believe homosexuality was a sin but something did not sit right with me. I never understand how God and hate could be in the same sentence. If God is love why would He (She) deny any type of love? In my opinion, everyone should have the right to love whomever they please to love. I was reading this article in the newspaper and this guy loved cars. Not just love as a hobby but physical and emotional love towards cars. Did I find it strange? Of course. Did I understand how someone could be in love and intimate with an inanimate object? No (other than sex toys of course). Did I care? No. Why? Because that was his business not mine. I did not understand it but as long as I don’t walk out and see him humping my car I could care less what he does. My point that I am trying to get to is this, I understand people beliefs but is it fair that your beliefs overturn others beliefs. Growing up in church I know why people are against same sex marriage or just same sex anything. We are raised that it is against God and if we question we go against God. But I don’t understand why people don’t agree to disagree. I do take in consideration that I do not think like most people or maybe we all think a like but I’m not afraid to voice it. God does not pick and chose who He (She) love. God just love.
California same sex residents was given the right to marry only to have it take it away. The American Foundation for Equal Right states: An integral part of our nation’s character and laws is the principle that all Americans are entitled to be treated equally by their government. Since 1888, the U.S. Supreme Court has 14 times reiterated that marriage is a basic civil right, including their landmark decision that struck down bans on interracial marriage more than 30 years ago.
The U. S has came a long way. There are a few states that recognize same sex unions and more companies are offering same sex benefits but there is along way to go. It's not just about changing your beliefs it's about allowing others to celebrate their own beliefs. “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.” Martin Luther King, Jr.
