Why Gays Should be Allowed to Marry!

Because they love! They love just like any heterosexual couple loves. In some cases they love more.
AND because they have the excuse to NOT commit to marriage yet still desperately desire the RIGHT too commit to marriage!
How many straight men can you say the same thing about? Honestly?
But let’s say you are a married couple who opposes gay marriage, for whatever reason, but most likely it is religious. Let me ask you this: If a gay couple down the street marries is that really going to effect the quality of YOUR marriage? Is it? Think about this deeply. Is it? Is God going to see your union as LESS THEN?
If you believe that it will diminish the value of your own marriage then you possibly may be limiting your scope of both Jesus and God.
If you are a Christian you will know that Jesus loves everyone and that the trinity respects and loves all people. I was raised Christian and Lord knows that I have been far from exemplary.. but the little bit I learned in my Episcopalian upbringing is that it is not our place to judge or decide. In essence I am saying worry about the cleanliness of your own house before you decide who else deserves to live in a house.
PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT!
I'd say you are right on target. I live in San Francisco and I was happily married. The fact that some gay folks love each other did not harm my marriage one bit. I wish more people out in the heartland knew how many gay people there are – probably right in their community, then they wouldn't be so afraid of them
Thank you for leaving a comment! And not just cause you agree with me.
i think gay people should know what their doing before they walk down the aisle. On survey, only 5 couples out of 150 stayed together for 5 years.. and all the rest had more then 1 thousand sex couples while they were with their partner. Is that what you want marriage to become? they dont give a shit about it.. they just want the name.
