It's not much of a surprise though, it was gonna happen sooner or later. I don't get what's the whole "OMG" reaction or some extreme negative reaction from the public. I mean, it's U.S., the country of free-will, rights and the sorts. If the majority of the Americans calls for it, the government won't be able to hold it off for long. (I guess due to the connotations involved with most gay couples..some would view the govt's approval of the bill as approval to the acts that are involved? It's bad for the govt cause they're supposed to take the moral high-ground.)
I get how as a Christian we might get upset at the fact that such a thing is happening. But how can you condemn the leaders who passed the bill when some of them may not even be Christians? How can you write a post and tell others that this is wrong when they may not be Christians and the things in the Bible will not make sense, will not apply to them? It is likened to the muslims being telling others that it is wrong to be eating non-halal food!
Weren't we told that sin is sin? No matter how big or small the sin? Yes, if our brother or sister fall into temptation and into sin, we should tell them what we see from the outside and they can decide for themselves whether they'd like to step out of sin or not.
Yes, we may feel that homosexuality is wrong but please do not go condemning the gay people. They do not deserve any hate because they are people. He is a person. She is a person. Do not tag them under homosexuality and categorise them as a topic that disgust you. They have feelings, they are just like you and me.
Pray for them, love them.
Hate the sin, love the sinner. (this is a very thin line)
Personally, I will never go homo or explore any part of that and I have a natural reaction to go yuck when I think about a guy-guy/girl-girl r/s (I'm not being judgemental I really have a natural reaction and get goose bumps and stuff). In the past, I didn't care for all this gay drama, I was all like ew no homo pls. But when you have a friend who is gay, that's when everything changes. You suddenly realise that this is someone I know and love and they are perfectly normal omg. And you get confused. Or maybe that's just me. I get confused all the time.
