A sin in your little world. not to people who can make their own decisions.
Okay, so I suppose in the murders mind, his "sin" is not sin. He thinks its right, must be. The abortionists mind? Same thing. How about the crack head who steals just to get his next fix, he needs it. Must be okay. Or, how about the young boy and the adult who want to marry, sure, is that okay outside of my little world? No, nor is homosexual marraige. It is rather a slap in the face of marraige, a joke, simply put.

You can't take the religion, or the faith out, it's part of what made this country. Why are they being discriminated against? Because a female wasn't designed to love a female in a sexual union, nor a male love a male. It's pretty obvious to anyone that doesn't have their own head stuck up their own, well, you know.
Faith? Do you really know what faith is? Faith is the blind adherence to a belief because you do not have the strength to face the world on it's own term. Religion is a crutch, an escape and a rut where it is easier to let someone else, be it a priest, rabbi or Pope make your decisions for you. What this country is built upon was the idea that ordinary men were fit and capable of governing themselves by rule of law, not the whim of a so-called Divine Monarch.
A crutch? Why, because I am limping? Do I sound like I am lame? No, in fact, I don't go off what the POPE tells me, or a priest, or even my pastor. I have seen Jesus in action in my life and in those lives around me. The pastor and church mean nothing if it's just a crutch. The pastor, the pope, the priest, they are all sinful men. That's all. My king and ultimate judge resides in Heaven.

The point being? If you want to take God completely out, and use the term NATURE, NATURE has not found it possible for a male to mate with a male nor female with female? WHY? BECUASE GOD CREATED NATURE AND GOD CREATED MALE AND FEMALE and in His eyes, it was good. Satan twisted it, and Satan brought it to the point we are at now.
There is no god. There is no Satan. As many people there are that believe in your god, there have been many more times that number that live and die and are happy and complete without him.
Any evidence of that? Probably not, because you don't know everything. Satan perverts everything made holy by God, including marriage, hence this whole conversation. Is it only coincidence or in keeping with what is normal that marriage has for all of history, been between man and woman? Any possible reason that homosexuality sneaks up on a country? Because Satan is like a lion, prowling and waiting for its prey. He takes piece by piece if he has to, and slowly will destroy the nation.

You want to know why they are discriminated against? For the same reason adulterers were 50 years ago, for the same reason porn was 50 years ago, for the same reason divorce was looked down upon 50 years ago, because people know it is wrong, but most, like most here, are afraid to stand up and say "THAT'S WRONG!" It's not about rights, it's about decency, and the future of our country.
The greatest indecencies that have ever occurred by the hands of men have been done in the name of one god or another. The Crusades. Islamic Jihads. Divine right of Kings. the human race is outgrowing the need for religion and the emotional baggage that goes along with it.
Wanna know something? Nobody is perfect and unfortunatly we are all human.
If we have so outgrown religion, then why does it play such a large part in our world today?
You see, we will never grow out of religion, or grow up from it, because it is all a part of us. God created us with a longing to be with him, to spend time with him, and only through his son Jesus Christ will we ever be completely fulfilled. I hope your life is exactly what you want. Exactly what you want, because if not, then you are still missing something. The only thing I am missing in life is my prayer time, and my personal time with God. God has revealed himself to me, not through the church, but rather through His word, His church (the people), and things that I can only call pure miracle.
God is real, and Satan is real. Satan has you so blinded you can't see that anymore.
