#dignified ranting

- Not all people are Christian (gasp) so not all people should have to follow the laws of the Bible.

- Being a rude ass to people who don't follow the Bibles laws would be hypocritical, considering the bible says to be kind to all people (Matt 22:39). It says to love your neighbor as yourself. No restrictions apply. No "love your neighbor as yourself, unless..." or "love your neighbor as yourself, except if they are ___". So discriminating against homosexual people in any way (including not allowing them to get married) is disobeying what the Bible says. (1 John 4:11)

- Much like Christians are supposed to love everybody, God is also supposed to love everybody. The Bible even refers to him several times as The God of Love, or even say things like "God is love" (1 John 4:8). So churches (I'm thinking of the Westboro Baptist Church) holding up signs that say things like "God hates f***" blatantly disregards one of Gods main qualities and gives other Christians a bad name.

- Even if you are a homosexual in a Christian community, you should still be accepted. No one can completely follow all of Gods laws, as that would be expecting too much and God understands that we are imperfect. 

I would like to bring up one thing: in a lot of posts relating to the Bible and homosexuality, people bring up the fact that the Bible also says you aren't supposed to eat shrimp either or something along those lines. I didn't bring this one up in my reasoning because that law is actually part of the Mosaic Law, which was abolished after the Ransom Sacrifice. (I don't remember the exact scripture for this one, but I do remember learning about it in church).
