I know the topic has been beaten to death, but still, when you haven’t got something, you just can’t seem to let it go! So, I was thinking, what’s the real bottom line on gay marriage? Let’s go down the list:
Will it mean that gays can live together…already doing that.
Will it mean gays can now have sex?….Um, right.
Will it enable gays to commit to each other?… Any 2 people can commit to each other–don’t need a law for that.
Will gays be able to have kids and form family units?…got that, too!
So really, what difference does it make?
And here’s the bottom line: gay marriage supports spouses in the ability to take care of each other: medically, socially, financially and emotionally. That is really all we want. TO TAKE CARE OF EACH OTHER. It is a travesty that we have to beg to have this right. It is a travesty that some people can lobby and vote to prevent other people from something so basic and so profoundly human…and to use religion and love of fellow man to do it. That’s the real abomination surrounding gay marriage.
And that’s the bottom line.
