i'm against gay marriagesjust watched oprah and she featured James McGreevey, the disgraced NJ governor who was accused of a gay sex scandal. he has just written an autobiography on his wretched life. man. this episode of oprah really pissed me off. but first, let me give u some background into this guy. he was married with 2 children, opposed gay marriages in his time as governor before he was accused of some 'corruption'...with the bigger focus on his scandal. so, he was a closet gay. and now, he has come into the open. he is in the process of divorcing his wife and has found himself a 'life partner' and is advocating gay marriages, saying that gay relationships need to be acknowledged by the society and is for the greater good of the public as it enriches the fabric of society. and has very supportive parents and was and still is attending church. he even went as far as to say in the show tt 'this is God's grace to me'. and...what about the hurt he has caused his ex-wife? his children? what on earth! God loves gays. He loves everyone. but He condones sin. homosexuality is a sin. no doubt about it. there's no grey area. sin is sin. i know some people are attracted to the same sex but if you are a christian, the only way to run away from this sin is abstinance and just a dying of your desires. tough call. but i have known of people who have triumphed over this. and they are living a very different lifestyle now. the very fact that he is advocating what he did just made me so angry. how can someone be so blind to sin? how can they knowingly live in sin? how can they think that homosexuality is acceptable in God's sight? has christianity been so whitewashed and so accepting that even sin is being embraced by the church right now? there was a bit of a hooha a couple of years ago when the anglican church in America and England wanted to allow gay marriages. the South East Asian anglican churches opposed the move. i can't remember if any other churches opposed the move. what do we make out of this? how do we let truth shine in such dark times? to be honest, it scares me. the way the world has become around me. what kind of a difference will i make? |
