God sees us all equal so just leave us be. We will know when the times comes who actually listens to their lord and knows who he loves. He loves us all.

[mycookie6]

i think that gays should be allowed to have the same freedom as straights. EVERYONE is suppose to be equal, man, women, black, white, asian, spanish, either one. Everyone should be able to do what every they want to do. ITS THEIR LIVES LET THEM LIVE IT!!! To the people who think it is wrong, just i know i shouldnt say it but seriously just F*** off its their business not yours. Let them do what they want to. And if its "damming them to hell" well god see's us all equal.

Psalm 81:12

"So I gave them up unto their own hearts' lust: [and] they walked in their own counsels."

Luke 17:26

"And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man."

Romans 1:24

"Wherefore YHVH also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:"

[derekdb2]

Repent Gays

Leviticus 18:22 Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it [is] abomination.

Romans 1: 26 For this cause YHVH gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:

27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.

vote NO on prop 8, great video by the way im a straight person and i dont know any gay people and i support this because its not a matter of opinion its a matter of equality these people who r against this are sick

Why Prop 8 was ever passed in the first place is beyond me. I believe same-sex couples must be allowed to marry. Call it what you will, married, civil union, whatever. It's all the same. Heterosexual male-female couples do it all the time, why can't same-sex couples marry and express their love. We may not be able to reproduce, but does that make us any less a family? I don't see how.

THIS IS THE TRUTH THE WORD and THE REAL DEAL!
