Let me start off, with saying that this view is expressly mine. This is in no way shape or form a reflection of anyone else, or any Church affiliation. That being said, let's begin
I am extremely sick and tired of "Homophobic" teachings, and just "Homophobia" in general. You choose to live your life one way, and I another. If I throw my religion in your face constantly, telling and yelling @ you that you must accept it, you cry fowl. You claim that I am not being fair, and that you deserve a voice. On the other hand though, you think it right that you can bowl over any/all who oppose your standpoint? You can not be a follower of Christ, and be homosexual. It clearly states so in the bible. It may "feel good", but a lot of SIN does. That does not make it right. If you want to openly (or behind closed doors) be gay, then you are allowed to by all means. You are NOT allowed however to coin a term "Homophobia" at any and everyone who disagrees with you being gay. I have no fear of you. The only thing I fear is my creator and saviour. Who are you to tell the government, and the CHURCH, what they must teach? Why is the government so weak that they bow down? Homosexuality promotes no future. Man + Women = Child. Child = Future. Man + Man = no offspring. Woman + Woman = no offspring. If everyone was gay, there would be no US. None of heterosexual people I know, will taunt a homosexual person. I've seen homosexuals yell, physically harm, and torment straight people though. Threaten them, as well as their children .. simply because we do not agree with homosexuality. There is NO future in homosexuality. I can not, and WILL not stand for it. There is no bias. I don't agree with ANY sin. The difference between me falling off of the road sometimes but getting back up, and walking towards God still, is that I KNOW I've fallen. I KNOW I've sinned. I repent, and try to never make that mistake again. Actively sinning, falling off the road, loving the place you are off the road, and thinking God is cool with it, is completely wrong. How can you read the bible, believe in God and Christ, and sin so happily while claiming him as your Lord and Saviour? It's impossible. He died on the cross so that we DON'T fall back into the sin you're so gladly living in. Do you feel no remorse?
The whole reason for this, is this whole thing with the Liberals in Ontario. How DARE you tell me I have to teach my child about accepting homosexuality as a proper way of life. That is NOT for you to decide, that is for me as a parent. Not only have you gotten a weak government with no spine on board, you're also corrupting Catholic Churches, and kids being home-schooled. My child will know not to bully, and to love everyone. That's because of the Agope love of our Father God. Love the sinner, hate the sin. I know people who are homosexual, and while I completely disagree with their lifestyle, I love them with all my heart. I pray that they come to their senses, but I do not bully them. Homosexual advocates often claim that there are more suicides due to bullying, feeling unloved, and unwanted. How do we not also take into account the homosexuals who ARE the bullies, make heterosexuals feel unloved, and unwanted? Why do they get to play the helpless victim, while secretly sliding the initiative of acceptance on us. It isn't about acceptance. The world has long since accepted homosexuality. The thing I see happening is a corruption, through mis-information. Homosexuality is a CHOICE. There are no two ways about it. You are NOT born homosexual. There are absolutely no scientific studies to support that. Homosexuality may be okay in your life, but you do NOT have the right to teach my children it is okay. This is in DIRECT contradiction to my beliefs, and my teachings. My teaching my child about God, and Gods love, is all that they need. There are radical Christians out there who seek to devalue and deface homosexuals. I disagree with them. I think anyone who has a true understanding of Gods love disagrees with them too.
Marriage, is between Man, Woman, and God. If you want to be "married", then coin your own term, and use it. Marriage is from God. By trying to fight for same sex marriage, it's also yet another way of forcing people into having believed that the Church is okay with homosexuality. It isn't. We aren't. And if they are, they aren't abiding by Gods written word. This all upsets me so, as I have a young daughter who was just born into this world. If things continue as they are, with God being removed from schools, and Homosexuality replacing him, I am most certainly uprooting from Canada and heading back to the states. If I can't homeschool my child, because even that course of study will be mandatory for them to be taught, else they fail, I'm definitely leaving. To have the government tell me I am not allowed to remove my child from school, because of what they are being taught, is outlandish to me. The whole thing we should be concerned about is BULLYING. Not the root of the bullying, but BULLYING in general. If a kid stops getting bullied because he is gay, but is getting bullied now because he's obese, is that okay? No. We need to place proper values and morals into our children. Things like the gay pride parade, are horrible. That is not child friendly. Half naked people walking the streets? Fully nude people at times. Sexual acts performed for all to see? No. Never will I accept that. By my belief, you are living your life wrong, and when the time comes of judgement, you will pay heavily for your sins. Hell is not a one night party that's fun. It is eternal, and painful. The way I raise my child should have nothing to do with the government so long as they are tolerant, understanding, loving, caring, and allowed to love their Father with all their hearts.
Reading blogs about how people who are openly against homosexuality get chastized, is bewildering. They want their voices to be heard, yet they stiffle ours at every avenue. It's not right. Again, to say you'll rape someones child, because they do not approve of your lifestyle, is too much. WAY too much. I follow Christ, but I am still human. If anyone, and I mean ANYONE ever laid a hand on my daughter against her will, it's game time. You can live your life your way, but don't you dare try to tell me how I need to approve and comply with yours.
