Gay Rights

Conservatives believe that homo sexuals should not be able to get married. They believe that it is going against religion and this country was found by Christians and we should follow certain values such as not accepting gay marriage; that marriage is a sacred ceremony only between a male and a female. Most conservatives believe that being gay is a choice. Liberals believe that gay marriage should be and accepted law. They believe that peoiple should not be judged based on their sexual orientation and any two people have the right to get married. Most liberals think that being gay was something your born with.

I am personally liberal on this topic. I completely support gay marriage. Why would someone chose to be homosexual? Why would someone chose to be "different", "unacceptable", or to be discriminated against? i don't think people neccessarily want to be this way, they just are. I also believe it is not the governments right, responsibility, or place to tell homosexuals that they cannot get married. The presentation went well, especially the conversation. It is a hot and controversial topic, yet it is mostly opinion based.
