Civil Rights and Christian Right - The Gay Community and the Future of American Society

Freedom and liberty means different things to different people. Today, we as Americans live in a free society or rather we all believe we live in a free society. There are many who are upset and say that their civil rights are being violated. For instance, the gay population feels that they are not given the same rights as married couples, as they cannot get legally married in many states currently.

Recently, in quite a heated debate someone from the far-left mentioned to me that it was not fair, and wanted to know; "Why do Christians fight against civil rights for gays," she asked

The gay contingency in the United States spooked the norms of the society, and people felt as if things were moving too fast with their agenda. They got scared and freaked out. Everyone should've expected it to rile the Christian political base. After all, people that consider themselves Christians make up about 70% of our population.

Had the gay population not pushed so hard they would have not be seen as disruptive, and over time they would have gotten what they wanted anyway without the friction. Eventually they will, only it will come at a high cost of animosity now. That's too bad really, as we are all Americans. Rather than fight one another, it stands to reason that eventually all this would become water under the bridge.

Now, we have a situation, and lots of anger and folks on both sides who are willing to go to great lengths to serve their will, no matter what it takes. Americans shouldn't act like this, it's very unbecoming of such a strong and proud society. Please consider all this.
