It was said that this situation resembles that of the Civil Rights Movement and to this comment, I must laugh.

During the Civil Rights Movement, African American people fought for their rights as free people. In this situation, yes, homosexuals are fighting for the same. However, the biggest different between the two, is the African American people cannot choose whether or not they are black or white. They were born into their race and did not try to change that fact, but simply change how their race was viewed. And yes, I know that some homosexuals argue that they were born gay, but they are sadly mistaken.

The Lord God made every person on this earth to love another person, of the opposite sex, unconditionally for their entire life to be bound with in matrimony. No where in the Bible does it say that the Lord made some people to unconditionally love and to marry another person of their same sex. Therefore, God never made anyone to be homosexual and no person is born being such.

Homosexuality is a choice, and therefore the situation at hand does not resemble the Civil Rights Movement. Homosexuals chose to be as they are; they were not created by God to be homosexual. OPINIONS
