I am opposed to gay marriage. I believe that marriage ought to be between one man and one woman. That being said, Conservative Christians need to stop focusing so much on trying to bad gay marriage. If we are honest with ourselves, Gay Marriage is coming to most, if not all of the 50 states within the next 40 years. What Christians need to focus on is that their rights are not trampled upon for objecting to gay marriage. The point is, we ought to be allowed to have nothing to do with this sinful practice.
We cannot allow a defeat of our absolute position to turn into a trampling upon our rights. Make no mistake about it, without us getting involved, our position of Gay Marriage being wrong will not only be politically incorrect, but it will not be allowed in the mainstream of society. Let me give a few examples. A Christian Wedding Photographer is asked by a lesbian couple to take photos in their wedding. The Photographer ought to be able to deny that request, as she believes that gay marriage is wrong and her being paid to take photos of that ceremony would be sin. Another example, which is more extreme but could very well happen. A gay couple goes to a church requesting to use their building. The church should be able to deny this request, as it does not believe in gay marriage.
The examples could go on and on, but you get the point. I hate to say it, but gay marriage is coming. I am not saying we should stop fighting for our cause. As the great Mr. Smith said in “Mr. Smith goes to Washington,” lost causes are the only causes worth fighting for. I just think we need to get things in place so we don’t get screwed when we do lose this lost cause.
