OK, say you have a best friend for years and she comes to you and says she’s gay and wants to marry her partner. Are you going to turn your back on her after she has stood by you for years?
How do you know if your own doctor is gay or not? Would you choose not see him anymore just because he is gay?
Not knowing someone’s sexuality seems to make him or her all right until it’s known they are gay. When some people say they are gay, often they are rejected, treated like they have a disease. Trust me, it’s not contagious. You won’t catch it.
Homosexuals are continuously being stereotyped. If two gay guys are seen together, some assume AIDS may be involved. The Bible says, “Judge not lest ye be judged.”
According to Stephen H. Miller on the Web site Independent Gay Forum: Marriage and Relationships, same-sex marriage is unlikely to cause an increase in homosexuality, but it is likely to increase levels of happiness among existing homosexuals.
The Bible says marriage was meant for man and woman. But why aren’t other things in the Bible picked apart as well?
When those that are picking gay people apart stop and look at their own lives, then they’ll have room to talk. As the Bible says, “He who is without sin, let him cast the first stone.”
According to the Web site, “Marriage needs protecting, all right – from heterosexuals who don’t take it seriously. Why don’t gay marriage’s critics spend some energy denouncing straights whose behavior undermines traditional marriage?”
Would somebody explain to me what sense it makes when a heterosexual guy will sit and ridicule homosexuals then turn around and get off on a porn video with a couple of lesbians? I guess it’s OK for some as long as they benefit from it.
According to the Web site, Vice President Dick Cheney had spoken out during the campaign that, “people ought to have the right to enter into any kind of relationship they want to enter into.”
Since President Bush claims to be so Christian-oriented, maybe it’s about time he accepts the things he cannot change, change the things he can and gain the wisdom to know the difference.
Passing judgment on someone who is gay is the same as judging skin color. It’s putting them down for who they really are. We’re all human and have the same emotions. I think if we all are going to ever come together to make any kind of peace in this world, we need to accept what we cannot change and instead need learn to love one another.
The freedom of choice should belong to every individual. Nobody likes or needs to tell someone else how to live. I am not gay, but I do believe in freedom of choice. I wouldn’t want another to tell me how to live.
Once it’s realized that gay people are not going to change, that only more are going to want to be married, then maybe we can accept the inevitable and move on with our lives.
That’s sad that many homosexuals feel they have to stay in the closet because they are afraid. I have seen firsthand families rejecting someone because that person was gay. Gay people have hearts and feelings the same as the rest.
Someone who condemns gays, just as Bush does, has obviously not experienced being close to someone who is. Just remember, those who are gay should have freedom of choice just as you do.
