Ok, first, it IS unnatural. There is nothing natural about sex between same sexes. If it were natural, offspring could be produced form the act. No offspring, unnatural.

Next, the Christian religion does not really preach tolerance. The diluted Word of God is being preached. God is *intolerant* of sin and homosexuality is deemed a sin. The fact that so many want to call it otherwise only lends credence to the notion that God has delivered them to the depravity of their own mind. That is a tragedy.

Next, the word marriage has always been used, where humans are concerned, to describe the relationship between a man and a woman or God and His Church. See above for why the homosexual relationship should not be considered a marriage.

Lastly, I have a problem with many things that occur in my city/state/country. I am allowed to speak my mind, thankfully. I see this as an affront to a value system built on something more than "I want". I will be judged by many here who will say I should not judge, but that is NOT what God wants from us. He *wants* us to judge. Judge ourselves and each other. Then help each other NOT to do those things that keep us from a relationship with HIM. Sin is exactly what it is that separates us from God. Homosexuality is a sin. So, YES, I have a problem with that, and I will try to help those who commit sin to stop. That is my charge.
