"Judge not, that you be not judged. For with what judgement you judge, you will be judged: and with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you. And why to you look at the speck in your brother's eye, but do not consider the plank in your own eye? Or how can say to your brother, "Let me remove the speck from your eye" and look, a plank is in your own eye? Hypocrite, First remove the plank from your own eye, and you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye" (Matthew 7:1-5)"
The personal choices of people are their own affair and in no way we are allowed to single out a certain person because they are gay or not. Whatever choices people make are theirs and theirs alone. They are responsible for their choices and they live with them. Our belief system makes us judge others as if we are flawless or without faults. No government or system should interfere with people choices.
Their personal sexual preferences are theirs and they take responsibility for it; to separate a couple by force who are in love and who found the real love in a relationship is so unfair.
If they are faithful and sincere in the relationship, they should have equal rights to married couples and if they want their relationship to be blessed in a church, synagogue or temple, they have a all the right to do so.
I have a numerous number of gay friends who are much more sensitive and fragile than many of my other friends; many of them remain for years undeclared because of family liens or social pressure and are always stressed and unhappy because they cannot come out with it. They just need to be understood, accepted and treated normally to be able to flourish and develop.
People used to think I am crazy when I told my children at the age of 16 that if any of them was gay, it doesn't mean I will love them less. They are free with their choices and I will respect them. None of them turned gay, but I tried to teach them that there is nothing wrong with our choices as long as we are happy.
Give them their rights as humans, we talk day and night about human rights when we cannot respect personal choices of humans. Do we tailor human rights according to our social beliefs and if they differ we fight against them!!!! I really need answers to set my records straight....
They have rights..... give them their rights!!!!!
A sexual orientation is nobody's to interfere except the person himself. But it stops there. I definitely agree that no one has the right to separate or judge such couples. But for God's sake don't tell me that you agree that they also should be blessed and get married, next thing I know......... you will suggest that its ok that they have children? No Noha I don't agree with you on this one, I am sorry,,,,, and mind you, I also have lots of friends that are this way and I love them big time, they are very very special, sensitive, loving people and most of all very good friends, so please dont misunderstand my comment.
