A few Bible passages which explains what God’s intention of marriage was originally intended to be:
“But from the beginning of the creation, God ‘made them male and female.’”
—Mark 10:6 (NKJV)
“And the LORD God said, ‘It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him.’ Out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field and every bird of the air, and brought them to Adam to see what he would call them. And whatever Adam called each living creature, that was its name. So Adam gave names to all cattle, to the birds of the air, and to every beast of the field. But for Adam there was not found a helper comparable to him. And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place. Then the rib which the LORD God had taken from man He made into a woman, and He brought her to the man. And Adam said: ‘This is now bone of my bones And flesh of my flesh; She shall be called Woman, Because she was taken out of Man.’ Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh. And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.”
—Genesis 2:18-25 (NKJV)
I could find a whole bunch more. Remember, that old saying, “It’s Adam and Eve, Not Adam and Steve.”? It really is true if you think about it! I’ve been speaking about my thoughts on marriage equality on twitter and facebook. Trying my best to not sound offensive and hateful, so I won’t get a public backlash, and so far, I didn’t get one. Nothing wrong with disagreeing with marriage equality, it’s how it’s being said.
Even though, I don’t agree with marriage equality, sure enough, there’s always going to be people who are going to be pissed off or disagree with me… but I don’t care. Not everyone have to be a supporter of marriage equality. We all have a right to disagree with it. There will be some people who think it’s alright that I’m entitled to my own opinion even if they won’t agree with it, but there always going to be a few who will still hate me for it.
That’s what idiotic about same sex marriage debates. When you disagree with it, you’re all of a sudden looked at as an evil and hateful person. No matter how positive or how less offensive, your thoughts on gay marriage is, when you disagree with it. Not everyone have to have the same opinions on everything, in politics and current events, ya know? If people want to remove me from facebook or unfollow me on twitter ’cause I simply voiced my opinion, that’s fine. Let ’em.
I have the right to believe in traditional marriage. Traditional marriage, all began with Adam and Eve. People just don’t understand that. I’m sure some do understand that, but when you bring same sex marriage into things, that’s just disrespecting and re-writing the traditional part of things. Know what I mean? Look don’t get me wrong, honestly, I would have loved for gay people for being able to get married, but since the Bible and God doesn’t allow it, that is what makes it wrong. Really think about it guys. Doesn’t wife/wife and husband/husband, sounds a bit awkward and strange?
I’m only trying to give people a reality check here.
Of course, like I said before, it wouldn’t surprise me if gay marriage does become legal in the USA today, ’cause President Obama will have a big hand in making it happen. All he has to do is go to the Supreme Court, sign a few papers, and that’s it.
A marriage should be between a man and a woman. Disagreeing with gay marriage, doesn’t mean I hate gay people, though. I totally respect them, all the way. Everybody has their right, whether to agree to disagree with gay marriage . Gay marriage is just disrespecting what marriage was originally intended from the beginning.
