5 Reasons Why You Shouldn't Support Same Sex Marriage

Same-sex marriage is a dirty, sinful practice, which, as unbelievably, is slowly, but surely becoming legalized across the United States of America. This thus promotes the anarchic homosexual lifestyle that people have been working hard to keep out of our uncorrupt country for generation upon generation. Here are five reasons why you shouldn’t encourage or support the legalization of same-sex marriage in our country (let’s make America great again).

1. It affects you directly.

Same-sex marriage absolutely has everything to do with you, even if you’re already in a happy, healthy, heterosexual relationship. Can you imagine a world where everyone could get married, no matter the sexuality? Gross. That would mean that people could have equal rights and benefits in all aspects of life, and that’s just not fair. Can you imagine exposing something like homosexuality, to the youth? That would be disastrous and inhumane.

2. It’s a sin.

Marriage, and the tradition of it, is between a man and a woman and that’s all there is to it. The covenant title of “husband” (singular) or "wife" (singular) is not the same as "partners," and should only be between husband and wife, as it has always been intended to be. Being gay isn’t the same as being African-American or black; therefore, this isn’t an issue of civil rights, because gays didn’t earn this right like they did. Not to mention the fact that marriage has several purposes, and one being to encourage reproduction. Last time I checked, two eggs or two sperms don’t make a baby. Same-sex marriage will result in the deconstruction of the human race.

3. It’s gross.

The last thing I want to see on a walk in the park, or while running everyday errands, is two gays, let alone two gays showing affection. Because if same-sex marriage becoming legalized, it is becoming supported and promoted. As if the “Pride Parades” where the homosexuals gather and celebrate themselves, on the premise of sin, aren’t enough already, who knows what kind of immoral tradition they will come up with if it becomes universally legalized?

4. It’s unnatural.

As aforementioned, homosexuality is a sin, and like most sins, it can be cleansed and washed away. Why would America encourage gay marriage if being gay is only temporary? This subject is just a waste of time, space, and energy, and what we should be spending our time on is conversion therapy.

5. It will be a catalyst.

If same-sex marriage gets completely legalized, who knows what kind of risqué, demoralizing behavior will become acceptable next? Next thing we know marijuana will be legalized and then what? We’re going to have a bunch of the gays hanging out on the street corner, smoking the devils lettuce and corrupting the youth. All-in-all same-sex marriage is disastrous to America…and the world.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
