Excellent Post! Live and let LIVE!

I just recently a social history project for school interviewing my friend Cory who's gay. :) This is such a great post to write! Thank you so much!

If we look at this from a biblical perspective, then this wouldn't be about love. Homosexuality is a sin, no matter how much society tries to sugarcoat it. This cannot be about love, because homosexuality is a sin, and God is love. The two do not and will never go together. Why? God cannot sin, so therefore, we are trying to put a false identity of love onto a sin. I agree with Pope Francis's statement, we should love them as we love ourselves. The Bible establishes the principle of love the sinner (Which in this case the sinner is everyone in the LGBT community.), but hate the sin (which is homosexuality.). And Artemis, The Bible does not teach that at all, you have misinterpreted it completely. WE are BROTHERS and SISTERS in christ, and we should never touch any woman in that way. Women are just as important to God as men are. We are sons and daughters. Notice how many people who support homosexual practices take random shots at the Bible, and are always wrong in doing so. But I'm willing to bet that at LEAST 90% of christians will not and/or do not know the right way to handle this. The correct way is to simply Love them not as their sinful brother in Christ, (As all sins are equal, so if we sin once by cheating on a partner in a relationship, or tell a white lie, we are equally condemnable as the murderer, or the rapist.) but simply as our brother in Christ, and slowly but surely lead them to the cross, the only way of salvation. And one last thing before i submit this, is that being gay is not a choice. It says in the Bible, that we are all born into sin as soon as we come out of the womb. Some people are born to be more susceptible to being an alcoholic, or being a murderer. Just as some unfortunate people are born into those sins, so are some people born into homosexuality. But they can wash that sin, by applying themselves and working towards being closer to God. The Enemy, or Lucifer, likes to twist originally Godly things like love and sex, and mask them over as to being the norm and socially acceptable. He twists love and sex to Homosexuality, Lust and premarital sex (It is very sacred, society has just forgotten. It is not outdated or uncool, it is respectful towards your partner whether you believe it or not.). Bless all of you, I hope I have enlightened you and turned on your lightbulbs. Be pushin peace and love to everyone.

I agree gay marriage is wrong it's lik Allowing people to have sex either animals or allowing

If we will take the issue on biblical or religious side, it would end up to questions about morality, dignity and faith of those same –sex couples. People will question how strong their foundation when it comes to following what is being normally practiced; that man is for a woman and a woman is for a man. However, if we will only widen our mind and have it logical about certain issues such as “Same Sex Relationship” in a new, and evolving generation like what we have, we can at least try to understand why such relationship exist.

if we look at this from a scientific point of view, then you'd see that being gay isn't a choice its genetics. homosexuality shouldn't be a sin, it should be sinful for person to separate someone from their happiness, god to you might be real and you should stick to what you believe in if it makes you happy, but that shouldn't mean you have any right to take away someone's essential rights just because you believe in a book that was made many years ago that you nor anyone else has any evidence is real, yet I bet you spend your time/lifetime preying for someone that you'll never be in contact with because your in hope and your trying to fill this sense of emptiness, are you really going to spend your lifetime trying to believe something that feels so naturally for some people a sin and keep them from there happiness just because of someone that could possibly be made up. grow up!! its 2017 knock yourself into reality this is about the future not ä book with words in it.

I agree with Shasta! God definately made us to love the people if the opposite sex, hence creating two sexes and although it IS their choice and I will not treat them differently I will not support it. It's unnatural and you can't say it can't be helped. I am extremely conservative and southern and I will not by any standards support such blasphemy. As for you Sasha, you go girl! Tell 'em how it is!

thumbs up!! i love the tolerance preach and i think it good supporting healty, life-long, constructive relationships, be it hetero or homosexual, friendship, family, work or whatever, preach love and tolerance!!
