I see this fight for homosexual marriage as a struggle to put a "nice" spin on something that is disgusting and unnatural. Homosexuals have the same rights to marry as I do, but we must protect our society from those things which would destroy our moral backbone. Homosexual marriage is one of these things. I suppose when homosexuals finally have their way, it will be only a matter of time before NAMBLA will be getting their way with young boys!!!
You can call it what you will, but homosexual marriage will never do anything to assist the growth of our society!!
Wow! What happened to turn the other cheek and to error is human to forgive divine, love thy neighbor? Maybe you should climb down off your high horse and take a homophobic break! Or maybe you should let God do the judging since they are his rules and who better to interpret them. You know what would be the ultimate irony...is if you were denied entry into heaven because of your hatred! Soon they'll be teaching it on the corners! Are the voices in my head bothering you?
Tony I think you hit the nail on the head!
It is as if you are saying that I must close my eyes to what is going on around me, and let life be what it is. I must be a pacifist and allow the evil around me to be justified and allowed in my world.
I do not put myself on ANY high horse and in fact view myself as a sinner more than any other. I sin and struggle on a daily basis with sins that only I will know, and are between myself and God. I do not judge, but I cannot stand by idly while those who attempt to justify their sin through laws and society do so. I am called to be a man of God, and if that offends, so be it. I am as great a sinner as any homosexual, but refuse to be blind to the sin that has taken our world by the throat.
At the same time though, my love for that person (whether homosexual, murderer, whatever) as a child of God will never cease. I believe the Bible teaches us to not judge, because I have sinned more than I can ever even consider paying for. That's why Christ died on the cross for me and all who live. But at the same time, we are not told to sit by idly while sin overtakes our lives. Even Christ cleaned out the temple because He, as God and human completely, knew what they were doing was wrong according to God's own word. And if I do judge a sinner, I hope that God will hold me to as high a standard. I hope in the deepest crevices of my heart that you see this and understand that I would never treat anybody as less of a person simply because of a sin, but at the same time I will not justify their actions simply because they want to "feel" some sort of normalcy by rationalizing their sin.
