Dragon dan that is so true at one point interracial relationships were looked down upon.. The lighter your skin tone would determine how you were treated.. Has people we evolve we get better, learn and improve all the people saying no and backing up there reasons are coming with some old beliefs that they feel should justify it.. But if the whole world were stuck in the way things used to be done we would all be cavemen.. There's a lot of things that we used to believe was the "right" now we look back at it and know it was wrong.. Don't judge a man or woman on the colour of their skin or who they chose to lay down with at night.. It's a new day either evolve or stop living period
Like I said, State? (civil union) Sure. Church? No. Against religion. At least Christian/Catholic. Married by church is 100% religious cuz it's union under God.
I'm a catholic.. And I don't care if same sex loves each other as long as its true.. You all saying being homosexual is a SIN, well then.. Didn't you know that living is a SIN? If you refer to Adam and Eve we all are made of SIN therefore, just by living means its a SIN.. But even though we are already a SIN to begin with.. We strive hard to do right from wrong which the fruit of knowledge Adam and Eve ate.. We know what is evil/good, right/wrong.. Who made the first bible? People..(SINNERS) so we can't say for sure if they add or remove some important things into it..(AS PEOPLE ARE NOT PERFECT) P.S. Living is a SIN so to enter the KINGDOM OF HEAVEN trust your instincts and do what you think is good/right not evil/wrong.. Since every single person born has this innate knowledge of right and wrong
*we know what is right/good, evil/wrong since Adam and Eve ate the fruit of knowledge before making a child.. *every single person born has this innate knowledge of right and wrong automatically within himself
Why people use something that to all intents and purposes is a work of fiction to demonise other humans never ceases to amaze me. The church condemns gay people as unnatural etc yet does very little about paedophile priests. What's worse? 2 people in a loving, consensual relationship or some dirty old bastard forcing themselves on a child? Yet one is condemned and the other is protected and still believers accept every word.
Idc if they do or not lol they make each other happy go for it but if your religious probably not the best idea. Just do whatever
to hell with gay marriege, fuck all the gay ppl, all the homosexuals will never see the afterlife, they should all be banned from coming into public, homosexuality is a disgrace to the human race, an unwanted desses, it's a monstrosity such as there never was b4
When civil union was introduced in 2005 to NZ it gave same rights to same-sex couples as it would have in a marriage. I can't speak for any others but myself and my church did not have anything against it whatsoever, In fact our minister who would possibly be called a homophobe supported this without any problems. Fast forward to 2013 and the debate and eventual legalisation of same-sex marriage. Big opposition from the church, and all hell broke lose. Why? I have no problems with seeing two people in love formalising their union. My issue, like many others before me have already argued, is doing this through marriage. Straight people have already tarnished the true meaning of marriage, it has become this social convention where if you no longer need it or you want a change, it can be severed just as fast as it was entered into. Marriage to those in the faith is not just a title or a ceremony that enables you to call someone 'husband' and 'wife'. A real and true marriage is a covenant, a sacred bond between man and woman, sworn before and including God. It's a promise and a commitment that this union will follow in Gods divine plan. Ask anyone in the Christian faith and they could possibly quote to you multiple passages supporting this. The fact that this has lost it's meaning with quickie marriages and even quicker divorces is sad and disappointing.
Definitely Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes Yes Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Definitely. Because gay couples are so cute and funny.
In my opinion gays can do whatever they want and call themselves whatever they like as long as it doesn't infringe on anyone else's freedom. However Forcing pastors to marry gays and pushing their viewpoints on my kids in school does! Give them all the freedom they want but leave me mine!!!
LOL Marriage has always been a civil institution. Religion is there to add some lipstick and glitter, but marriage is a civil contract. For a few thousand years, women couldn't break the contract. They were either purchased and sold via dowry and bride price. Those were not the good old days for anyone except privileged white males. Churches have no say in what marriage is. They can refuse to ordain and preside over the ceremony, and that's it. But seriously, look at what the old and new testaments say about marriage... Most of what is written doctrine is not followed. Churches pick and choose what is important. "Traditional marriage" is code for putting women back in bondage. And anyone should be entitled to a civil contract.
Not just no but hell No. Why its my belief. Do I have gay friends yes. Have a gay brother. Have 2 Lesbian Aunts. Its not a hate thing BC I love them for them and they know that. I just disagree with the marriage thing. Why BC I do. Its my right to be able to agree off not just like many of you have the right to agree. Am I a BSD person for this no . Are you a bad person for saying yes no your not. So why bash each other over it. People what an opinion but when you say it want to jump on you for not be leaving as they do.Well this country was founded on people taking a stand for what they thought. This county was also founded on change, so I do get that part. All I'm saying is it seems a lil wrong to be a mob of people who want to hate and bash BC others will not give in and say yes. There are places that allow it go to them live happy. The ones that don't like it those people go there and live happy. Don't hate ever its wrong and will harden your heart.....But Again A BIG NO! For me....
no gays should not be married. being gay didn't happen overnight. Its been around since the early biblical times. First of all marriage is between a man and a woman not just between two people. the second there's no religion that condones same-sex let alone same sex marriage. if the Creator is against this then how can man change it just to fit their own homosexual ideology. during the book of times people were laying down with the same sex all the time they were happy even though they were they were looked at as an outcast to the rest of the community because this is not normal this was considered an abomination. Now we wanna change what marraige means to win political votes ftom the gay community. Allowing gays to get married walks over the sanctity of marraige. Gays dont need to b married to b happy. They can still b gay, still live together and still love who they want. I dont expect unmarried ppl to understand bcuz u dont have an appreciation for marraige. Y should ppl get special rights when they choose yo live or b a certain way. That's not a civil right to b protected. Civil rights r to protect ppl from unjust from things they cant help. Like ur culture, ur gender, being disabled, etc. Gays should have rights to protect them against unfair treatment bcuz they r gay. Like being turned down for a job , being attacked, not getting an apartment, etc. To say gays cant b happy without being married is ridiculous. I thought gays were together bcuz they were happy eith each other. If they werent happy already then they eouldnt b together to try to get married. We give this nonsense too much power. Nobody is stopping gays from being happy. They r being stopped from makin a mockery out of marraige
The Bible is also against women wearing red and men cutting their hair. The Bible also says that if a husband dies, the widow is obligated to marry his nearest living relative. The Bible also had no problems with concubinage. Don't use a book to justify prejudice by picking and choosing the parts that you agree with.
