SAME SEX MARRIAGE....HOW DO YOU FEEL?
| Fri, 08-08-2003 - 12:20am |
Well the place that I work does mostly weddings, worked hundreds of them. Today we got into the "big" discussion about same sex marriages. Now that it is legal in Canada they feel it's just a matter of time before we have some at our place of business. Being that I work in a Military ( MOSTLY MALE) environment every one is up in arms about this.
Being one of the senior people there I put in my two cents worth which was not received very well.
My philosophy is why can't a man love another man, or visa versa. If it brings you happiness and is not hurting anyone does it really matter if you love someone who is the same sex???. I just don't understand why people are so against it, I mean their not causing anyone else any harm, and just want to love...who they love.
So I could go on, but you see where I stand, I was just wondering how you other ladies felt about this, I would be interested in hearing any one else's opinion.

This may get me in big trouble with some people, but I say that God is loving (rather than angry and punitive) and wants people to love each other and be happy together. If the person you love is of the same sex and they love you in return, then so be it. I don't believe that God would want me to think negatively of anyone who has found a truly loving relationship.

but I have made sure that my kids learned
the different views.
Such as the way God would have it, with
scriptural back up,
and the way that the "world" would have it.
To tolerate with love, and to choose
wisely between the two views.

are gay, but God did not intend for sam sex unions. If He had,
why would there be two sexes????," Charlie wrote.
Char, I respect ya....but want to answer this one.
In my opinion, and many other people's opinons, it is not
about what we personally believe but about equal rights to
each individual....even those that do not believe as we do.
You have a right to your opinion. Not trying to take that
away from you. Also don't want to take it away from anyone else...
or take away equal rights from anyone else.
We are not here to judge. God said we should not judge lest we
be judged.
Hugs, Sara
