What if I'm Gay??
What's so Wrong with Being Gay?
There have been rallies, protests, meetings, committees, and everything else to convince the government that gay marriage should be illegal, and that the gay community should keep quiet, or just not be gay. Well i think differently. These people are who they are and if they want to be gay, then let them. Who is it really hurting?
How would you feel if someone walked up to you and said, “Ohh, I'm sorry, but you can't marry the person you love. Congress just announced that it's illegal. Too many people don't like you loving the same sex.” This is basically what people are saying, even though they say it in a nicer way.
People need to mind their own business. I know that sounds rude but they really do! You can't help who you love, you just fall for them, whether its a boy or a girl. Being gay doesn't hurt anyone even when people know so how is it a problem? Say you are standing next to a gay person in line at the grocery store. Unless they are showing some type of PDA with their partner then you wouldn't even know. It doesn't hurt you in any way at all.
The bible states that another man shouldn't lay with another man as he lays with a women, and the gay community knows this. If we are telling them this and they still want to be gay, then let them. It's not their fault, we shouldn't hate them just because they sin like every other person on the earth.

Sometime there needs to be change. Traditional is not always the best.
I hope one day America will be free, because without everyone having the right to marry the person they love, it's not really freedom is it?
What does gay marriage have to do with polygamists? Gay marriage is about allowing TWO people that love each other to have the right to marry.
It has nothing to do with polygamists. That is just another excuse that people use to keep homsexuals from having the same rights as everyone else.
