<p>There’s nothing wrong with people having an opinion. Period.
But government shouldn’t base its laws on something as abstract as religion.</p>

<p>Goverment should be 10000% separate from religion.<br>
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof…”</p>

<pre><code> – The First Amendment
</code></pre>

<p>ya but people vote on it and their opinion may be based upon religion</p>

<p>Government was made by people who hate government, none of this **** makes any sense.</p>

<p>Are you talking about the government in the US? Because that was created by people who just didn’t want a monarchy again so they didn’t want a strong central governemnt</p>

<p>It’s a quote/joke from a youtube video. :stuck_out_tongue: Our governmentz is pretty cool.</p>

<p>The bill of rights says what the bill of rights says. We can only assume intentions through the Bill of Rights itself.</p>

<p>So, what do you guys feel about gay rights? ^_^</p>

<p>Being gay is an insignificant part of people. It shouldn’t matter. Equal rights for all.</p>

<p>^^ completely against gay marriage</p>

<p>^^Thanks!
I’m for gay marriage but, I’m kind of glad because a male can’t ask me to marry him so I don’t have to say yes or no. :stuck_out_tongue:
^ Why?</p>

<p>its in the bible</p>

<p>Are you aware the bible was rewritten by the Church during the 4th-5th centuries?
Even so, if the bible is our standard for living life, shouldn’t we be owning slaves?
The Bible, IMO, along with the Koran and the Torah, is a load of phoeey. Starting with Genesis.</p>

<p>Well your opinion is that it a load of phoeey and my opinion is that its not</p>

<p>Really, here are some stuff from the Bible. </p>

<p>Ephesians 4:15 15
Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ.</p>

<p>Polygamous Marriage, one man with more than one wife. A polygamous marriage is not an Adam and Eve style marriage relationship yet God accepted, affirmed and blessed polygamous marriages in scripture.</p>

<p>Strangely enough, modern Christians reject polygamy, a Biblical form of marriage, on the basis that in our modern world, polygamy is illegal and is not affirmed by modern culture.</p>

<p>Levirate Marriage, from the Latin ‘levir’ meaning ‘brother-in-law.’ In the ancient near East, if a man died without having children, his brother was expected to marry his widow and produce children to continue the lineage of the deceased brother, Deuteronomy 25:5-10. Marriage in the Bible.</p>

<p>Obviously, this is not marriage in the Bible as portrayed in the story of Adam and Eve in Genesis 2. No western Christian today would practice this ancient Biblical law. Think about it.</p>

<p>Would Focus On The Family support any Christian in western society practicing levirate marriage? Focus On The Family would tell us that because levirate marriage is illegal in western society and levirate marriage goes against modern cultural values, therefore FOTF opposes levirate marriage. </p>

<p>But, LORD helps us if two same sex couples gets married instead of Levirate Marriage and Polygamous Marriage. </p>

<p>God made me gay, and he still loves me.</p>

<p>Scripture: For God so loved the World that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life" </p>

<p>Also, how in the hell does me marrying my boyfriend affect you life at all, it doesn’t</p>

<p>Matthew 5:22 22
But I tell you that anyone who is angry with a brother or sister[a]** will be subject to judgment. Again, anyone who says to a brother or sister, ‘Raca,’[c] is answerable to the court. And anyone who says, ‘You fool!’ will be in danger of the fire of hell.</p>

<p>Also if you want to protect marriage ,make divorce illegal.</p>

<p>If not marriage at least give us all of the basic right of a straight marriage in a union.</p>

<p>in 1 Corinthians 6:9-10
“Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, not idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodimites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God”</p>

<p>Leviticus 18:22
“You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. It is an abomination.”
I never said that you marrying your boyfriend would affect my life.</p>

<p>Several polls show that pro gay marriage is over 50%, gay marriage is going to happen.</p>

<p>It may happen but that doesn’t mean I’ll support it</p>

<p>/side note: I don’t believe god will send me to hell. I’m a good person. He forgives all, people do things much worse that being gay and he forgives them.
*Being gay IS ok.</p>

<p>He forgives them when they repent</p>
