I have not told anyone this because I don’t want to be thought of as different.

If this bill is passed, that means that I am unable to enjoy the happiness of marriage. I need to ask: Why are people fighting against my rights as a citizen? Am I any lesser of a person than all of you? Why would you dissallow me to legally marry whomever I choose?

God made a woman so that he could create a world. Now that we have no problem with underpopulation (do you see a shortage of people?), it does not matter. But how is it your choice to decide if homosexual people should be allowed to have the happiness of marriage or not?

Okay, here’s what I believe: God made Adam and Eve, one man and one woman, NOT  two men or two women.  Homosexuality is a sin.
Romans 1:26-27 – “Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.” (NIV)
God gave everyone the freedom to choose their lives, but let us know what was right from wrong. There is no reward to this sin.
1 Corinthians 6:9-10 – “Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.” (NIV).
Believe me, I am not set on hating and despising gays.  They may be a great person, but that cannot fool God.  I choose to like the person for who they are, but I will never agree or like what they do. 
But, that’s just me. If you see God’s love when you see a person who is gay, then you should try to look deeper into that love, for that love is filled with sorrow and heartache, for His children have wander away from Him, but His love keeps Him reaching out. God Bless.

Do we force gay beliefs on Christians and tell them that they must accept something which is against their religion? It’s a lose-lose situation as it stands…

I’m so sorry for you Speakthetruth. You feel the need to tell others that being themselves is a sin. I myself am not a religious person, which allows me to think for myself on this topic, unlike yourself. Gays are no different from you, if not better, because they do not discriminate unlike you.

How can this article be inappropriate for a high school to print; when there are currently gay/lesbian students walking around the halls of Buffalo High School? Sure this article may be biased and not the best journalistic work, but this is an opinion article. If you don’t like what this story has to say or respect this persons opinion, don’t read it.

It rhymes, so it must be true.
