Marriage is about love not gender

Word of the day : Marriage…….
(broadly) any of the diverse forms of interpersonal union established in various parts of the world to form a familial bond that is recognised legally, religiously, of socially, granting the participating partners mutual conjugal rights and responsibilities and including, for example, opposite-sex marriage, same-sex marriage, plural marriage, and arranged marriage:, Anthropologists say that some type of marriage has been found in every known human society since ancient times.

Now you are wondering what I am on about since you all know that I am married and have been for a bloody long time, well I am on about “same-sex marriage” yes I am going there.

My husband will tell you that God made Adam & Eve not Adam & Steve and that same-sex marriage is wrong and against the teachings in the bible, that may be the case, however, I am not against it why because I am of the belief that if is wrong and God has a problem with it than it is for those who are gay to answer to God when the time comes.

It is not for me or anyone else to cast judgement, I feel if a person is gay and wants to marry the person they are in-love with then so be it. They are not harming anyone, they are not forcing their lifestyle on anyone else, so why can't they marry.

I don't understand why there are laws preventing it, if the people are of age and consenting adults and are doing so of their own free will then why can't they marry, they are already living together and that hasn't made the world stand still and come to a screeching halt.


A gay person is no different from anyone else, being gay isn't a condition that is contagious, it is not a lifestyle choice it is just who a person is.

  2. USA - from Puritans to Impure-itans

    Any connection between beautiful New England and predicted disasters?
    Take same-sex marriage. I would have guessed that a "sin" city (San Francisco? Las Vegas?) would have been the first to legalize it.
    Oddly it's been America's birthplace that's wanted to be the first place to end America and its values! It's been a Nor'easter of Perversion (helping to fulfill Luke 17's "days of Lot") that began in (you guessed it) Boston in 2004!
    New England has gone from the Mayflower Compact to the Gay Power Impact, from Providence to decadence, from Bible thumpers to God dumpers, from university to diversity to perversity, and from the land of the Great Awakening to God's Future Shakening that'll make the Boston bombings look like Walden Pond ripples by comparison!
    The same Nor'easter has been spreading south and as far west as Washington State where, after swelling up with pride, Mt. Rainier may wish to celebrate shame-sex marriage by having a blast that Seaddlepated folks can share in lava-land!
    The same Luke 17 prediction is tied to the Book of Revelation which speaks of the cities that God will flatten because of same-sexism - including American cities - a scenario I'll have to accept since I can't create my own universe and decree rules for it.
    I've just been analyzing the world's terminal "religion" that has its "god," its accessories, its "rites," and even a flag. It's an obsession that the infected converts are willing to live for, fight for - and even die for!
    Some claim that Jesus never mentioned homosexuality. Well, when gays have birthdays they don't say what they don't want but say positively what they do want.
    Likewise Jesus didn't get negative and mention every sexual variation that He knew mankind would invent, but stated positively that marriage involves only a man and a woman!
    Want more facts? Google "God to Same-Sexers: Hurry Up," "Government-Approved Illegals," "FOR GAYS ONLY: Jesus predicted," "Filthy Still Club (Rev. 22:11)," and "The Background Obama Can't Cover Up."

    [I saw the above article on the net. Any reaction? Lou]

  3. I don't have any problem with same sex marriages. I agree, it's none of my business what other people do in their lives.

  4. If churches don't want to allow marriage ceremonies for gay people, then that's up to them. Some churches won't have ceremonies for non-members, either. But gay or straight or whatever, consenting adults should be able to have a civil ceremony. I'm sick of hearing people say that the Bible says NONONONONO. The Bible also says that if your children misbehave, then you should kill them. Picking and choosing the rules from the Old Testatament that one wants to enforce doesn't lead to anything good.

    Love,

  5. I notice that the long comment above is from Anonymous. I agree with BB - what you have said, I couldn't have said it better myself. Love is love, is love, whatever the gender.

  6. Well said!! As an adult, I don't expect other people to tell me what to do - so I try to show others the same courtesy. And if I DID have a problem with what other people do, then it's MY problem, not theirs!
