Something I just thought of the other day...okay, so you think homosexuality is a sin. But regardless of that, doesn't everyone deserve equal rights? Would you try to sit there and say that blacks or native americans don't deserve to be married or to share in the same rights as we do? Equal rights shouldn't be based on what the BIBLE says as not everyone believes in the Bible, sorry, but it's true. Furthermore, isn't the gist of the whole thing that according to the Bible homosexuality is a sin, but those who participate in it will pay the consequenses, right? So not giving them equal rights isn't going to STOP them from being homosexual and somehow "save" them. Why not just support their right to do what they want, even if it goes against what you believe? Because in the end, they'll be the ones to pay for it, not you. (According to your beliefs anyway)
