YEAY FOR THE BISEXUALS!!! *waves around banner with the Bi Triangle on it*
There is nothing wrong with it. My favorite point for it right now is: If marriage is between
one man and
one women then divorce and re-marriage should not be legal. Because that would be a marriage of
another man and one woman or
another woman and one man.
Marriage does unfortunatly have ties to religon and that's the big issue now. Originally marriage had little to do with love at all. It was about making badies. So this has become a deep-rooted thing in Christians' minds, that marriage is for creating babies and obviously two people of the same gender cannot have babies (unless it's two women and they do an insimination using the sperm of a doner). However, by saying this, Christians are admiting that the last thing marriage is about is love. Some great moral high ground ya got there. Also the Bible says homosexuality is wrong...of course it also says people who're left handed are gonig to Hell which anyone with sense knows is not true at all. Christians have forgiven so many mistakes and misconceptions in the Bible already why does homosexuality have to be so different from being left handed? Like being left handed it is inborn, the person cannot help it. To say they're going to Hell for it is a bit harsh, ne? Also the Bible was written by men in a time when homosexuality, like left handed-ness, was greatly misunderstood and feared because humans fear what is different or what they do not understand. So the idea of two men/women together was greatly disturbing to their poor "pure" minds [insert big roll of the eyes here]. Also, Christians say that sexual intercourse outside of marriage is sinful but they have barred homosexuals the abiltiy to be "clean" in that manner by denying them marriage. Strange no? Yes, the Bible says homosexuality is a sin...and so is eating birds apparently. The problem is NOT ALL OF AMERICA IS CHRISTIAN. To pass laws based on faith is wrong. Church and Sate are supposed to be separate, guess Bush missed that memo. To deny a group of people something based soully on a faith not shared by the who country is wrong and unfair. Now yes, if every single human being in the United States of America was of the Christian faith then fine but as 'for mentioned that is not the case. Also, I would like to ask the Christians something: how does this effect you? How does two men getting married directly effect
you? You are free to live your own life as you wish as are they. Your life style and theirs shouldn't effect each other so. Why is it that the idea of somewhere out in the cosmos two people of the same gender loving each other is so horrifying to you? It's love, love is beautiful and is
not something to be feared, loathed, looked down upon or have bigotry directed towards it. That brings me to point B. I think Christians when you say the word "homosexual" only hear the "
sexual" part. They seem incapable of believing that love could possibly have anything to do with it. Well, no wonder they find it disgusting! Plain lust can be just that; disgusting. But that is not the case with all homosexuals. Yes, there are some lascivious, sluty gays but the same is true for heterosexuals. You can't glump us all into one category, it doesn't work that way. We are individuals and each make our own choices on how to live our lives, just because a small percentage of us have not made "the right" choices in your eyes doesn't mean we all have. To many of us love is very important and is very much a part of the relationships we form with our partners. Oh, and don't give me the "it's alright to love another man/woman but that doesn't mean you have to act on it" BS, if I flipped that around and told you that just about someone of the opposite gender you'd go up in arms 'cause then you'd realize how unfair that is and how difficult it would be to do.
So to make some sense of this long-winded post: I support Gay Marriage.
