Caroyln Ebach: IF THEY WANT TO POUND THE SHIIT BACK UP EACH OTHERS ASSSSES ITS UP TO THEM... BUT REMEMBER IF THERE IS A GOD.. THEY HAD TO ANSWER FOR IT TO GOD WHEN THEY DIE..
Gennie Shauer: Simple: because being gay is the minority and people that are not in our group can never comprehend how we feel. The people that are a minority are denied rights based on the beliefs of the majority. People that are in the majority can't understand what it's like to see a partner die and not be able to be in the hospital room. People that are the majority can't understand what it's like to be viewed as inferior. Then you have the people who are so overly religious that they want to say we can't marry because a book says so. It's funny too: there have been many studies about countries that are "happy". Denmark has come out on top for years and they have legalized gay marriage and are also one of the lest religious countries in the world. They don't have problems like we do in the ! U.S. in terms of mothers killing their babies, rapes, murders etc. I'm not striving to be like another country, but their a lot of social lessons that our country could learn from a place like Denmark. I will also never understand why people deny myself the right to marry. The one's that are against it will never attend a ceremony I have nor would I want to sit in their place of worship that comes off as oppressive to many....Show more
Ronny Dorge: I think it is supposed to be a sin or something.Love is Love.
Tatiana Evanosky: They have the right to be gay, what else do they want?
Patricia Dornbos: marriage is between a man and a woman. call it something else for a man and man or woman and woman.
Melina Minneweather: this is a question I have always asked but also think shouldn't go in this section cuz everyone agrees with eachother, if you want answers on both sides put it in the politics section
Scot Sepulbeda: Because heterosexuals have alwa! ys called formalized relationships between opposite gendered p! artners "Marriages". They look with dismay, sometimes hostility when partners in same gendered relationships want to have a similar means of expressing their commitment to each other.Religious heterosexuals claim that Marriage is a Sacred Institution. Marriage is not a Sacred Institution. It is a human, a 'Secular' institution. Couples have been announcing their intent, within their community and to society as a whole, to 'marry' and live together as husband and wife for thousands of years, long before religious groups and organizations took over the task of solemnizing the commitment that those two people have to each other, to the exclusion of all others.'Marriage' can be best defined as a legal-social contract which formalizes the commitment or the bonds that two people share with each other in a relationship.Groups, Communities and Societies are slow to accept change, or very reluctant to accept change that affects the status quo. The proponents of same Gender or same S! ex marriage have been pushing for the equal right to 'marry' for a long time; it is only recently that they have seen some small measure of success.This issue is going to remain a highly contested one for many years to come, as long as it's the religious 'conservatives' vs. the 'liberal' elements of society failing to or not wanting to reach some sort of compromise that is satisfactory to all....Show more
Robbie Starchman: The practice of homosexuality is destructive to the human soul and God gave His warnings about this in the Bible. Supporting gay marriage is a sin because it means to support homosexuality. Iniquities (sinful tendencies) pass down the generation line if they are not removed by the Blood of the Lord Jesus. Homosexuality is caused by iniquity and the Blood of Jesus cleanses the iniquities of all who accept Him as their Saviour.After a person accepts the Lord Jesus as their Saviour, they are transformed and made a new creature in Christ (2 Corinthians ! 5:17). So the gay person would be changed and so would the alcoholic, l! iar, drug addict, fornicator etc. It's the power of the Blood of Christ and the Holy Spirit in the believer that brings about this transformation.REDEMPTION BY GRACE THROUGH FAITHBecause mankind is incapable of meeting God’s standard of perfection necessary to abide in God’s presence (Romans 3:19-20,23), God sent His Son Jesus Christ to pay the total debt for the believer’s sins and mercifully credits to his account Christ’s righteousness (Romans 3:21-28,5:1-11; 2 Corinthians 5:18-21). Jesus’ gracious act of atonement was complete and covers all sin (Colossians 2:13-14; 1 John 1:9). Salvation is not based on good deeds but according to the mercy of God (Titus 3:4-5). Believers are justified by faith; it is a gift by God’s grace (Romans 4:3-8; Ephesians 2:8-9). A true, living faith will result in a desire to live a holy, loving life of good works (Ephesians 2:10; Galatians 5:6; James 2:14-26), but failure to be absolutely successful at righteous living does not n! egate the believer’s justified status.If you sincerely say this prayer, your sins will be washed away, you will be redeemed to God, be saved from eternal torment and inherit the Kingdom of God:"Dear Jesus, I am a sinner. I repent of my sins. Please forgive me and save me by your shed blood; come into my heart. I want to receive you as my own personal Lord and Savior. Amen"...Show more
