How is it that we can elect an african american president (yes, I did vote for Obama), yet still not allow homosexuals the human right to marry? I am less than thrilled with the outcome of Prop 8, and honestly disgusted. This wasn't about "gay marriages" being taught in school. This wasn't about "gays" suing your church. This was about keeping a law in effect that allows homosexuals the same rights as heterosexuals, the same rights as humans. The right to marry the one you love.
How brainwashed has the church system made this country? Being homosexual isn't their choice. The science is all there. All I keep hearing is "Marriage is the word of god. It's a sacred religious ceremony." I call bullshit. If it's such a powerful "word," then why is the divorce rate over 50%? Maybe they should check the sacredness of this said "word" and think of a new excuse. I doubt that half the hetero couples that get married are religious anyway. If anything, homosexuals are less likely to take this "word" for granted seeing as it's something they haven't had the freedom of doing until last May. But now that freedom has been revoked. This proposition is threatening to amend the constitution and state that marriage is only allowed between a man and a woman.
It's selfishness, ignorance, and blatant discrimination.
I find it hard to believe that this is "gods will."
