I'm glad that those states banned on same-sex marriage. If it does, we're dooms. I can't wait to go to Heaven.
Because gay marriage will have what effect upon your personal life?
none.
If gay marriage passes, unless youre planning to get a gay marriage it will have zero effect upon your life, or your well being.
Its not like if gay marriage were to become legal you would wake up tomorrow, grab a box of cereal, sit down to eat, take a big spoon full in your mouth and then spit it out and scream "ah fooey them damn gays can marry! now everything is ruined!!!"
It will have no effect upon you. It will however have an effect upon thousands of normal everyday people who just so happen to be gay that would rather enjoy being able to have to same tax benefits, insurance benefits, and just over all pleasure of being married.
Its not about "approving" of homosexuality. You dont have to agree with homosexuality to believe that every united states citizen, male, female, black, white, Christian, any other religion, gay, straight, bisexual, blond haired, brown haired, blue eyed or brown eyed should be treated exactly the same as everyone else. In America we have standards of living. We do not have to agree with others opinions, lifestyles, sexuality, or religion, to agree that they should all be treated fairly.
This is not an issue of asking if you "agree" with or "approve" or homosexuality. Rather its an issue of equality its an issue of do you agree with and approve that every single human being should be treated with dignity, respect, justice and equality?
I mean that is what the pledge of allegiance says isn't it? with liberty and justice for all. For ALL, that means not just gay people, not just straight people, not just women, not just men, not just African Americans, not just Caucasians, that means for ALL
For all does not mean for "who we chose should be treated with respect" it means each and every single American citizen and like it or not, that includes homosexuals.
