A father picks up his newspaper the morning after he buried his son, a Marine Corps Corporal. He found the front page dominated by a story about protesters thanking God for killing another soldier.
The protester's justification? Their message is supported by scripture, God is punishing America for being tolerant of homosexuals and the death of soldiers is a welcome sign of God’s wrath.
How is a parent supposed to feel when their beloved child, who happened to be different, dies fighting to protect a people who's only response is “You’re going to hell!†and “God hates you!†?
The claim in question today is "Homosexuality is morally wrong, because God says so." I disagree. I believe that a person's sexual orientation has nothing to do with morality. Just as it would be silly to condemn a person to eternal damnation and hell-fire for preferring the use of their left hand over their right (being left-handed), I think it is equally silly to condemn someone for preferring a person of the same sex over one of the opposite sex. -
There is no honor in that, at all.
Saying things like that at a funeral. For someone who sacrificed themself. For the country which has a line in its constitution that pretty much says you have the right to marry whoever you wish.
I get that marriage between two gay people may offend "religious" people, but what if the "gay" people had a religious belief saying that's the way to do it? The law would then pretty much piss all over their belief. -
Ugh, people, you mess up this world pretty fast.
