My Opinion:
My Opinion On Gay Marriage
I read in the news where some one said, "The union
of a man and woman is the most enduring human
institution, honoring -- honored and encouraged in all
cultures and by every religious faith. Ages of experience
have taught humanity that the commitment of a husband
and wife to love and to serve one another promotes the
welfare of children and the stability of society."

This may have been the truth at one time, but
pretty hard to swallow at this time, with all the
broken marriages, and people who are just living
together.

They say Bush won because the majority of the
people cared about moral values, but the vote was
almost 50/50. The question is who's moral values
are they considering?

We have for years fought against prejudice in this
country, and have past laws to prevent this. Yet the
issues in this election were nothing but prejudices
based on religious belief's. This whole business
against same sex marriage is nothing but one of
prejudice. Just another reason for keeping the
division of church and state. You can not have
freedom of belief if it does not apply to all belief's.
The melting pot of the world contains nearly all
religions. This is no longer just a Christian country,
believing in Christian values.

I went to church, and studied the Bible too, I
married a woman for 28 years and have kids. Just
so you don't get the idea that I am ignorant in the
teachings of the church, or a gay person. I say what
I say because I can not stand those, who preach one
thing and do another. I do believe that when there
was both a mother and a father in the home, and
the mother stayed at home with the kids, and the
parents rights were honored, the kids were the
better for it, and society as a whole.

Christian's believe that God created Man and
Woman as mates just as with the rest of the
animals, yet they also turn right around and claim
that sex is the original sin, and we are all living in
sin. Of course they use a tale of the apple to explain
it to the young, but we all know the apple
represents the gaining of the knowledge of sex.
Which they believe they were not suppose to do,
and were cast out of the garden to fend for them
selfs. Why give the ability to reproduce if we were
not intended to use it, just like other animals. This
also must mean that God also made the gays, or
they would not be here.
The Christians would have you believe that
marriage was invented by God, it was not, it was
instituted by man. People did not start to marry in
a formal ceremony, until societies began forming
where there was a need for proof of inheritance.

The marriage ceremony was a legal means of
establishing property rights, and the right of the
sir name for the child. If you ladies stop to think
back the words were a lot different at that time, "
To love, honor, and obey" your husband.

The marriage doesn't even have to be done by the
church, it can be preformed by a judge, ships
captain, there are others that do not come to mind
right now. It is just as legal whether sanctioned by
the church or not, the holiness of marriage is in
the mind of the individuals personal belief. Which
in our society under the right to believe as we
choose, can not be forced on to some one else.

America is a free society, which limits the role of
government in the lives of our citizens.

If this were true there would be no objection to
this type of marriage.

I do believe that it is not the fault of true gays that
they are the way they are. This is a fault in the
genetic make up, that controls the emotional
make up of  the brain. Until science can find the
cause, and correct it, we will have these people
amongst us.

They can not produce off springs to carry their
names, but if they are allowed to adopt which has
happened, the child would carry it's own sir name
from it's original father. Unless the name was
legally changed to that of one of the partners. If
they want to have a marriage ceremony with a
licences for the sake of property rights, I can not
see any harm in letting them.

By rights any law passed or a amendment to the
constitution that forbids this, is unconstitutional.
Since we are suppose to have the freedom to life,
liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
