All people are born in the image of God; and if they have any sense, they seek Him instead of trying to redefine reality or elevating their personal passions over the eternal laws of their Creator. There is a difference between the worth of people and the worth of various behaviors.
...and homosexuality is now an accepted sexual orientation.
Actually, no, it isn't. It's only accepted by some individuals. Most of the U.S. has had its "acceptance" forced on us and our children through judicial activism and leftist indoctrination. A large majority of states outlawed gay marriage around the time of DOMA, only to have their "consent of the governed" overturned by rogue judges in state after state, who had been pre-organized by radicals. Opposition to legalized gay marriage, like opposition to abortion, will never die due to man-made laws having been passed, because it violates the eternal moral law established by God.
Freedoms for masses of humans, as the constitution attempted quite well to achieve, mean all freedoms, not just the ones you like.
Not forever. God has not been tolerant of sexual immorality, from Genesis on through the present day. Only two Israelites survived the 40 years in the desert because of their immorality consorting with pagans at Peor and frequent disobedience to their anointed leader, Moses. Nehemiah, when he came to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem, had Ezra read the law to the people and separated the Jews who had married non-Jews forcibly from their pagan wives and children, even beating some who refused to separate. On and on, throughout history, to the present era. I could cite many examples, but take for one, the debauchery capital of sex tourism in Asia, Banda Aceh, being the site of the huge tsunami that wiped it out. Now, 15 years later, it has sharia law and adulterers are publically whipped, because the pendulum of human cruelty has swung and there is no pretension of the relative "kindness" of Western penal codes.
the kindness our religions and cultures have ingrained in us lately has helped minority groups
God is not a socialist, making everybody "good" and "deserving" and being "nice." His laws are not mere suggestions. There will be a correction.
I am simply not connecting your thought out and cogent religious arguments against homosexuality and gay marriage with FReepers making derrière and other crude jokes about Mayor Pete. They really are not the same thing.
