I'm Catholic and there's a gay marriage debate at my school tomorrow. I'm for it.

I know, apparently there's somewhere in the bible that says its wrong, but I really don't understand all the fuss. People were born that way. God made them that way. I mean, if we're god's children, why would he let someone be born an "obomination"?

Also, if we do allow gay's to be married, aren't we doing the right thing? Gays will be together anyway and if we don't allow them marriage, they'll have sex before marriage.

For those of you who think its wrong, why?

(Btw lets all keep an open mind because I'm talking about this from a religious viewpoint. I don't want any idiots making fun of my religion, plz.)

I've been raised christian my whole life.
And what I've learned, being gay, bisexual, transexual or anything else of that sort if there even is, it is a sin.
But don't get me wrong, it isn't like I hate the person.
You should never hate the person for what they've done.
Just hate the sin.
And I'm not sure why god even allowed it, but if you think about it, it's like people going off and murdering, stealing, or anything else.
When it comes down to it it's a sin.
It's a choice.
It's a hard choice.
But one none the less.
We all have choices to make and their choices are to like the same gender and change their bodies.
But I don't think we have the right to ban people from gay marrige at the same time.
What I think is if they want to be together let them be.
But if you can always save them you should try.
1. Prove it's a sin.
2. Prove it's a choice.

In the Bible, it said "Love is patient. Love is kind."

And in Leviticus, it said if you were to lay with another man, then you won't get into heaven. The Bible is one of the most poorly written books in history, because there are so many contradictions within its pages.


Care to back this up?


I'd love to.

Psalms 145:9 The LORD is good to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works.

Jeremiah 13:14 And I will dash them one against another, even the fathers and the sons together, saith the LORD: I will not pity, nor spare, nor have mercy, but destroy them.


How do these quotes taken out of context back up your entire set of claims?


I find it incredibly funny that whenever I write something self-explanatory from the Bible, Christians say I'm taking things out of context. I'm not reading into anything, nor am I trying to find an underlying issue behind the words. I'm reading the simplest message of each passage based on its simple, easy to understand wording, and form a commonly believed idea about the passage. The only difference is that I'm connecting the dots to how it continuously contradicts itself.


I find it incredibly funny that people disregard context so quickly.

"America is at peace."

"America is at war."

Simple, self-explanatory, seemingly contradictory statements. But if you knew that the first statement was said in 1870, and the second in 1943, the contradiction would no longer be there.

Well I'm sure it can be proven, but if not that's cool.
But I know for a fact that being gay has been proven to be a choice one makes, so try again.

Empirical proof is not just you saying so. Where is your evidence?

I asked you to back up your statements.

And also, the APA has debunked that theory already. Try again.
