Sooo.. I just read that the LGBT fight for gay marriage can be closely compared to, if not deemed the same as, the Black community's right for equal rights.
Sorry to break the news to all LGBT supporters but using the Black civil rights fight as your vehicle is wrong and unethical.
The Black community was robbed of their civil rights. People with low self-esteem and low self-worth decided that, as a means of uplifting themselves, they would take Blacks hostage and make them slaves thus ripping them of their civil rights and independence.
Being in a LGBT community is a choice. Just to be clear, I have nothing against a LGBT. It's just that this fight for what they feel is theirs is starting to aggravate me. Demanding the right to have a gay marriage is just like demanding the right to drive your car after you just wrecked it. Being in a man on man relationship or woman on woman relationship is a sin.
The government decided to bring politics into marriage. Marriage is not a legal union, or at least is should not be. Marriage is the union of two individuals under God. The government, being the greedy bastards that they are [lol], decided "hey, let's make money off of what God created"..
In my opinion, if the LGBT community wants to share in the benefits of being legally married then their official title should be 'legal partners'. That way they can share all the benefits that those legally joined can receive [filing joint taxes, etc]. However, LGBTs can not get married. Under God, they can not be called Man and Man or Woman and Woman and they can not say that they are married. Instead they are legal partners.
I just feel that a sin can not be justified as right. Being married is a gift granted from God.
And because I'm on the subject.. Common-Law marriage is also wrong. Just because you shacked up for an 'x' number of years that doesn't mean that you are married. As stated before, a marriage is an union before God. If you can't stand before a preacher and say your 'I Dos' before God, then married is NOT what you are.
