There’s freedom in America, the land of the red white and blue;
but there still must be laws, things you just can’t do.
And I adore the fact that you are appointing yourself as sole arbiter of how I should live my life.
You can’t marry your sister, your brother, or the family pet;
a sheep, or a goat - at least not yet!
Lessee...incest, incest...and I wish to point out that while you cannot marry a brother or sister (to prevent the spread of genetic disorders, by the way, not just because it's icky) you CAN marry your cousin in, if memory serves more states than a man can marry a man, or a woman can marry a woman. And the rest cannot give informed consent.
That how is it with homosexuality, what the Bible calls sodomy;
men lying with men as with women, is perversity!
And I don't believe the Bible is anything other than a book of fables and parables utilized by one person with an agenda after another. So why should I care what it says about homosexuality, and more to the point, why should I be legislated by it?
That they’re not designed that way, tis easy to perceive,
but yielding to sinful desires, man is soon deceived.
Prostate. Easily access through the rectum. If that's not designed that way I don't know how else to interpret it.
A moral wrong is not a civil right; like the sin itself, that’s confusion;
calling evil good and exchanging light for darkness, is sure delusion!
Still not giving me a better reason here other than "Because I think it's icky, and I say so."
History tells us where this will lead, from societies now in dust,
When a nation casts off the laws of God, and follows it’s own lusts.
I assume you mean Sodom? Their sin wasn't homosexuality, it was inhospitality. They didn't want to fuck the angels, they wanted to RAPE AND KILL THEM. There is a difference, and if you need to be told otherwise, I fear for your wife.
Promoting a sin which sends one to Hell from an early grave,
dishonors God and robs man of the Life He gave.
So it dishonors God for me to live a happy life, content with the man I love? To honor God would to be in a sham marriage, denying who I am, hating myself, and spinning into depression?
Fuck. Your. God. Then.
There’s but one answer: the Risen Jesus gave Himself for our sins;
Repent and believe, then truly follow Him!
If your God cares more about who I fuck than how I live my life, he's not worth my worship. I raise money for cancer research. I am kind, goodhearted, but if all that is trumped by the fact that I love a man, then so be it.
