I think it is ridiculously sad that people have to or believe they have to live like this. As the blog says, it affects many people, whole families, not just those who have to pretend to be something they are not just because certain societies dictate this. It's not right.
What's so wrong with gay marriage?. It's not like it's really all that much of a sacred bond these days with the ridiculously high rate of divorce that our society has. And if you believe in God, aren't we all equal in the eye of God? Why are you not treating everyone as an equal by not allowing people to celebrate the love and committment they have toward another person? How can you think that these people are any less than you?
Obama has now admitted that he supports gay rights. How much longer can it take everyone else? "I've just concluded, for me, personally, it is important for me to go
ahead and affirm that I think same-sex couples should be able to get
married," Mr Obama said in an interview with US network ABC.
The American ABC has said that strong support now exceeds strong opposition as seen from an ABC news/Washington Post Poll.
Most of the arguments against gay marriage are "protect marriage". Protect marriage from what? We are all just people. And I am pretty sure that Henry VIII ruined it way back when.
For those of you who do support gay marriage, I just found the Gay Marriage Blog that seems pretty interesting. Really it's only a matter of time before equal rights are granted. Why not sooner rather than later? Why fight change? The world is always changing and we as a people are always changing. Just let it happen.
This is a message to Australia and Australians. We don't need to be as conservative as we have been in the past. Now is the time to be one of the first to support that which only makes sense and give the gay community full rights. We are all the same people!
WE ARE ALL THE SAME PEOPLE
