I don't want children being raised in a homosexual environment. Bottom line. Don't we, as Christians, have to stand up for something at some point?
I actually don't care anymore. If they want to get married, fine. No skin off my back. I went to an uncle's funeral yesterday and spoke with 2 young (female) relatives who have joined the other team. To deny them is futile. Why complicate their lives any more than they already are? The economic impact (on the nation's economy) is negligible. The religious aspect? How about "live and let live"? My energy is better spent trying to convince people that we are still in the middle of a war on terror and that devoting billions to an effort to control the climate is stupid.
+100-100=0 So you are saying you'd rather kids go through the often terrible foster system than have two loving adults concerned for their well being. Some gay parents may try to push gayness on the kids, but some straight parents push some less than desirable ideologies on their children currently. Not all gay folks are terrible people. In fact, I'd guess most gay folks are generally decent. They may have issues, but what human does not?
We're in a war against terror like we're in a war against poverty. Terror and poverty win every time. We can't bomb away terror. To fight terror we must be less susceptible to fear. There will always be someone in the world disgruntled.
