Well, that's up to be debated o.o;; Though a lot of people say that people are "born gay," I just don't believe this is true. I think people choose to be gay or straight. I don't think there's some "gay gene" that decides your gender. Then why couldn't there be a "murderer gene" or "geek gene" or "athletic gene." I think it also has a lot to do with culture and the changing times. If people were born gay, then why is it that there are suddenly a huge mass of gay people now, unlike 1000 years ago. Shouldn't there have always been this amount of gay people all throughout history?
But, this is just my opnion ^.^;; please don't lock this or ban me or anything T_T
I must respectfully disagree. I did NOT choose in any sense my bisexuality, nor did some event in my childhood shape me. I've just always thought (always being since I hit puberty, at least) that guys can be as attractive as girls, and that I could date them just as easily.
As for the actual issue of gay marriage, my beliefs are simple. Same as straight folks, let them have the legal benifits of marriage through a civil service, and if they want a chgurch service and can find a church willing to provide it, allow that as well. My personal belief is that if I were to be in a homosexual rerlationship that were tu result in marriage, then I wouldn't want to be involved with an organization that had spurned and persecuted me and those like me for the past 2,000 years. That's just me, though, if a church wants to tell me to get out, fine, if they want to marry gay couples, fine, and if a gay couple wants a church wedding, fine. That's not of concern to me. What is of concern is the denial of rights to a minority, when every other individual, regardless of race, religion, national origin, what have you (sexuality aside) can go and get married overnight to any gorram Vegas stripper they please whereas members of this minority, regardless of the committment or length of their relationship cannot even obtain the legal rights of a marriage. That is injustice, plain and simple.
