Samesex Marriages

Same-Sex Marriages(Should it be allowed? Should it involve children?) "If a man lies with a man as one lies with a woman, both of them have done whatis detestable. They must be put to death; their blood will be on their heads."- Leviticus20:13. "Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do notbe deceived: ......homosexual offenders.....will not inherit the kingdom of God."- 1 Corinthians 6:9-10. "Do not lie with a man as one lies with a woman; that isdetestable."-Leviticus 18:22. According to the Bible same-sex marriages would be immoral and sinful. Beinggay and loving another person is certainly not illegal, but uniting that couple in marriage isnot only rejected by most of society but also by Judaism, Christianity and Islam. As aChristian I find same-sex marriages unacceptable, but I know that not all people believe inthe Bible and we do have freedom of religion in the US . Courts in Hawaii would not allow same-sex marriages and that is now beinglooked at as unconstitutional. Not allowing the marriages discriminates against certaingroups that are United States citizens and that is unconstitutional. Even though I don't approve of same-sex marriages, according to our laws there isreally no reason why the marriages shouldn't take place. But I do think there should belimitations. Marriages of the same-sex should not involve children. There is no naturalway that two people of the same-sex could possibly have children of their own and shouldnot be given custody of a child or the ability to adopted a child. Governor Wilson, California republican is proposing to ban "Second-parentadoptions, which in the past have been approved. These regulations would require maritalstatus to be given to the Department of Social Services. I don't believe that gay parents will cause such a child to be gay. But all thingsbeing equal, I do believe that child is being deprived of crucial, necessary two-sexingredients
