LouBelle, thankyou for your input, I know that most christian faiths teach this, from a bible standpoint... I get why homosexuality is portrayed in that light (as bad), but I do not agree.
I am a deist of sorts (I believe in God- but not as the bible describes/teaches ). I see purpose and cycles in the creation.... We are born of the earth, we live here for a time, then our bodies die and return to the earth (I cant say for certain what happens next or what came before)...
I see a natural purpose and need for couples to exist who cant 'procreate' for many logical reasons (as well as for the more romantic ones)... couples who can not produce children are available to raise the children of parents who may have died, it also helps to maintain a sustainable population... also- you dont get a say in who you fall in love with. I married a man because I fell in love with a man, if he were a woman... I still would have married him/her (if was legal- the relationship would exist regardless)...
Not all partnerships, marriages are based on sexual activities... some are life long friends/companions who love each other deeply and choose to share their lives together....
Sex is just sex! But making love is a physical act of expressing that love shared by two concenting adults (regardless if they are both the same 'gender' or not). Making love is not a dirty subject, although some faiths teach this to be so......
