Am I wrong for supporting homosexual rights even if I do not condone them? Basically I think they deserve their individual rights within this country.

If I look at the problem as an American, then they should have all the rights that others have. But as a Christian, looking at the same idea, that's like helping them sin. The Bible makes it very clear both in the old and new testament that homosexuality is wrong. And to support gay marriage, is to support homosexuality in general. Sure it can't be stopped, because America is America, but that doesn't mean that they have to have marriage rights. What do they gain? A marriage certificate. They can open joint bank accounts, they can have consensual sex, they can live together. What do they want by being married?

you're not the only Christian who loves the Church but believes that marriage should be everyone's right, don't worry smile even if the Church never changes teir views, I hope they'll eventually realize that Jesus loves everyone. heart

What do they want by being married? i think things like hospital visits and insurance benefits. maybe even adoption privileges stuff like that.

The American in me thinks that they should have equal rights. The Christian slaps the American in me and points to the scriptures. When a conflict between what you or I want and what God says arises, it is always God that must win.
A quick little comment on the "Jesus loves everyone" line. That doesn't mean that He won't punish you. The presence of His punishments is a sure sign that He hasn't given up on you. When you can sin and He does nothing, be afraid for your soul.

"Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD." heart

No, you're not wrong. Contrary to what most people here believe, there's nothing wrong with being gay. If you feel like your religious beliefs are squandering the rights of other people, then it's time to find another religion.
I know I did.

Hi...uh you posted twice. Is it because of the no edit glitch yesterday? anyway, I'm sorry for pointing this out but what you just said is completely contrasting to what you said in one post.xXBlueBomberXx A few of you seem to view homosexuals the same as I view Christians; The lowest mankind has to offer, the worst of the human race, an entirely lost cause. Sound similar to any of the things we've been saying? .

Christianity doesn't squander any rights- it shows you the way to live a better life, what's good for you and what'll keep you from doing wrong!

I'm sorry about this I just want to clarify things...Ohhhh, I see what you're talking about. When I said " the lowest mankind has to offer", that was in reference to Christian beliefs. I actually support homosexuality, myself. Sorry for the confusion.
