On November 30^th one of my class mates; Andrea Crosser wrote a blog regarding Same sex marriage.

This is a very delicate topic to agree on a conclusion, since we are a nation “known” to have a mixture and acceptance of different cultures and race diversity.

As Andrea mentioned some religious people believe that homosexuality is a sin, unfortunately most of the human beings base their lives around some type of religion or believes, and with that they think they are allowed to judge people. The First Amendment of the Constitution clearly states  freedom in a  person's religious views or lack thereof must be protected.

I believe as American citizens we have the image of fighting for “independency” since back in the days we always fight for our rights. We have a history of fighting against slavery, women’s rights, privacy and even voting.

America was founded on the concept that the majority should rule and this identifies us from other nations, “democracy.” It is the main reason we have a Bill of Rights as well as anti-slavery and equal protection amendments. Denying marriage to a homosexual couple is no different than denying marriage to Hispanic or black couples. This would be like taking a step back and starting the fight against discrimination once again.

A marriage is a relationship between two people. How does it hurt society or people not involved in the marriage?

Since gay couples cannot have kids naturally, this will likely increase the desire to adopt. Since there are so many kids around the country in need of adoption. This could possible decrease the criminal rate in the USA since some kids who are destined to grow with no love would have a change of life.  I am not against gay marriage but I do agree with “ Live and let Live.”
