Against gay marriage? Just remember straight people make gay babies!

This is so TRUE - straight people make gay babies!

Finally after much unnecessary deliberation the state of New York legalized gay marriage! And its about time. This is yet another rightful victory for the gay community which has been the cause of much celebration across the nation. The fact that this even had to come to a court hearing is insulting. Those of you who are against gay marriage should hold a 'come to Jesus meeting' and re-evaluate your moral convictions as well as your definition of what a 'good' person means. After all isn't that what the Bible teaches - love your neighbor as you would love yourself? And yes that teaching still applies even if your neighbor is gay or a lesbian.

I think its pretty clear what the gay people are fighting for here but what are their opponents trying to push? And why is it any of their business anyway? Here is a simple rule of thumb that everyone should adhere to in order to make this world a better place: "mind your own business and don't stick your long nose where it does not belong!" I have been hearing some really poor and sorry excuses from the so called 'good christians' as to why gay marriage should not be legalized and honestly there is not a single excuse that anyone can come up with that can justify taking away someone's freedom and choice. You should always put yourself in their shoes. How would you like to be told what religion you can believe in and when?


Lets just take a look at some of the lame excuses that people have come up with:

- Marriage originated from religion and it is against the teachings of the church!
  Sure, whatever, it might have originated there but this is the 21st century and we have come a long way and our definition of marriage has evolved as well. Also, just to remind everyone, the Constitution of the United States clearly states that there is a complete 'separation of church and state' - google it if you don't believe me. Also, in case you just awoke from a very very long sleep the state has its own legal definition of what marriage is and it has absolutely nothing to do with church or religion. Also, a lot of people around the world these days skip the antiquated ancient rituals and get simply married in court.

- It is just morally wrong!
  You are entitled to your own believes but you have no right to push it onto others as this violates their basic constitutional freedoms of religion, sex and speech. This is the same constitution that allows people to pursue whatever religious believes they hold. If you deny people the freedom of sexual expression that will also make it ok to attack religious freedoms.

- This is not how nature intended it!
  Perhaps you should watch more nature and animal shows instead of soap operas and reality tv. Animals exhibit plenty of gay behavior in nature.

- I am homophobic!
  A lot of men are. I am no exception but that does not stop me from doing the right thing and from respecting personal freedoms of others.

- It's dangerous for health and causes AIDS!
  It is no more dangerous then christian sex. There are many ways to contract STDs this is just another one of them. Contrary to popular belief gay people did not introduce AIDS. Instead AIDS was introduced into the gay community in the early days as an attempt to put an end to the movement. Instead the plan backfired and AIDS spread worldwide affecting all communities. I guess what comes around goes around.


And those of you that are still not convinced that it is ok and perfectly acceptable to be different in sexual orientation don't worry a day will come when your child or a close family member will come out of the closet and then you will have to face the music and to learn acceptance and open mindedness one way or another. Karma has a way of catching up to people and you are no different and won't be spared - feel free to pray all you want!
