A Kalifornians opinion
Here we go ...POLITICS!
I live in the most "tolerant" liberal state in the country and I am leaving because of it. This is how I see your little issue here.
First, I don't know if being gay is a choice, I just know I never had a defining moment when I chose to like women. I just always liked girls and that is how it was.
Second, as a conservative I want a federal government that is so weak, it cannot control who gets married.
The less I listen to others opinions and the less I let them p**s me off, the less power they have.
In my opinion God loves everyone and hates all sin regardless of its nature. Ultimately judgement is his problem, and I am thankful he bears that burden for me as well as all my others.
I am wary that militants will go from promoting equal rights and protections, to enforcing acceptance. I look out for it.
I work with several openly gay/lesbian folks and as long as they stop the bleeding when I get shot or stabbed, and shoot straight and do their job, they are OK by me. I care about them enough to tell them about my relationship with God.
I try to live my life like it is the only bible they might ever read. I fail, but I get up tomorrow and try again.
As far as my kids are concerned I let those questions be opportunities to teach them what I know about it. I can't answer questions that aint been asked.
OK I asked for it, let me have it!
