I would like to do my free post this week on gay marriage. My personal opinion is that they should have the right to be married, but I can see why some people are against it. I think that it should be possible for a gay couple to become legally married, but if a religion is against homosexuality, they should be allowed to deny the couple a religious ceremony under their church. The couple is allowed to have a religious wedding ceremony; the church they use has to allow it though. I don’t see how this would be a problem though because I have a strong feeling that a homosexual couple wouldn’t want to be married by an anti gay church. Also even if they can’t be married by that church, they can choose another one. The reason that I think people don’t think that same sex marriage should be allowed is that it started out as a religious based process. They may feel that the government is interfering in there religion by allowing. This is why a church should be able to deny the use of their own recourses to merry a couple that they do not approve of. I think it is a compromise that has to be made in order to gain ground in the fight for equality in marriage.
I think that the religions who have these beliefs should change, but that will not happen any time soon because changing someone’s religious beliefs is like destroying their faith in the god they believe in. I think that people have to put aside their social beliefs when voting on a law like this. Their decision should be based only on the constitution. The constitution clearly gives everyone equal rights in marriage, I don’t think that congress or the United States criticizes should be able to vote to basically destroy everything that the bill of rights stand for. Hopefully soon in the future everyone will understand the importance of this movement. Something important to remember is that back in the civil rights movement, the people who are loved by society today are the radicals. When voting, try to think how your grand children will think of your position on the problems that we have today, that will be famous American history in their time.
