Gay Marriage Should be Legal Free Essay


Gay marriage should be legal. Gay marriage has been illegal since the 20th century because before that gays were frowned upon and had to be married to someone of the opposite gender.

"Thou shall not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination". "If a man also lie with mankind, as he lithe with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them" (A passage from the bible). Look that is just horrible. I don’t think a man should be put to death just for loving another man. I don’t have a problem with Christians and the bible but that is just a horrible thing to teach children and adults. The bible teaches some good things but also teaches a lot of bad things like Hatred and sexist things. 

If Christians believe that god made everyone that means god made gays. When they deny that being gay is a choice it means that god gave them a choice to be gay. It really doesn’t make any sense to me. I have had people talk to me about this before they said that “Everyone has a weakness and being gay is a weakness” He then told me his weakness is that he is lazy and he has to overcome his laziness but he won’t go to hell for being lazy but people will go to hell for being gay. 

First off, I don’t believe in hell, and the fact that gays are supposed to go to hell is by far the worst thing I have heard. Hell is for people that kill, rape, sin, and other bad things. Not for a person that is gay. So what if he/she is gay why does it matter to you? You should just worry about your own life and stop trying to control other people’s lives.

The definition of marriage on the dictionary is ”The state of being united to a person of the opposite sex as husband or wife in a consensual and contractual relationship recognized by law”. Now give me one good reason why gay marriage should be illegal. There is no good answer because it should be legal. Gays are just normal people like you and me. They pay taxes, have families, like to play sports, and maybe even join the army as all normal people do.
