I honestly can not see why people can not all have the same rights. We are all human, gay people don't choose to be gay but it all means is someone is attracted to a different sex. Say someone was only attracted to green eyed people, thats how they feel and thats what they feel is right for them, so does that mean they should have lesser rights then someone who prefers blue eyes.
Also does it make any difference to anyone if gay people can get married. I am a bit iffy about gay priests when the Bible is against it. But again I don't see the Bible as a literal history of what happened and what must be followed. I see the Bible as stories to help guide people and show morals.
I'm not sure if it was in this topic where Gerard said about lesbians not being banned in some countries. It was never illegal in the UK as Queen Victoria said "Ladies do not do such things". Just adding a bit of history there.
I just don't understand peoples ignorance for black people and gay people. Black people are black because the pigmant in their skin to protect them from the sun so it evolution. Does that make them wrong and mean they shouldn't have the same rights? Of course not. Gay people are just attracted to the same sex, again big deal. I just do not see whats so wrong about seeing two people who love each other promise to spend the rest of lives together. Anyone should have the right to do so, no matter what it says in the Bible.
