BLOG ASSIGNMENT STAGE 8

This post was done by Sammie, and I have to give her kudos. Her article is about gay marriage and how everyone should be equal. I 100 percent agree. There is a separation between church and state for a reason, and so far I have heard nothing from the people that do not want same sex marriage to be legal that wasn’t related to sin of religion.

In Sammie’s article she wisely states that this issue will never have a conclusion that appeases both sides. She also asks some tough questions like, “How can anyone truly justify this as a legitimate basis on which to deny rights? What happened to true equality? Who has the right to make exceptions to fairness, to choose to grant rights to some but not all Americans?” Way to go Sammie! These are great points.

She goes on to say that the nuclear families are not the only type of family that can raise kids. “Families rely on tender, loving care, regardless of the gender of one's parents.” I completely agree. Kids aren’t going to see people as homosexuals they are going to see them as parents.

All in all there are links to other articles, and good clear points. It is only one person’s opinion, but I like how she doesn’t tell every one this is right. She tells people why she thinks it should be.

For those of you who are wondering I am Catholic, God judges, not man. What’s right for me is not for others.
