Day 18: Gay Marriage

Your Views On Gay Marriage

I want to start off by saying that I am a Christian, and I believe in the unconditional love of God and Jesus above all else.

I don't like the Christians that give all Christians a bad name by telling people that God will not accept them and they are going to hell because they are gay. "God hates fags." They are right up there with "Thank God for dead soldiers." It makes my blood boil.

God is loving and accepting. God is the only one who can cast judgment and decide where you will end up in the afterlife. Who are these people to tell you such outright lies?

That being said, I'm all for gay marriage. Marriage was created to cause monogamy, faithfulness, a trusting environment, reproduction, love, care, companionship and more. In a same-sex marriage, reproduction between the two is impossible. Although, I don't think that's quite as important today simply because of the quantity of people now on Earth. There are far too many unwanted children around the world. Reproduction is still vital, but not in the amount we see today.

I believe that everyone should have the right and privilege to have the things that come with marriage. You love who you love. If they are willing to make that life-long commitment, why stop them? It's not a disease, or a mental handicap. It's the way they have chosen to live their life. God loves all of his children. God accepts all of his children. Unconditionally. Shouldn't we?
