Extremely recently, the United States Supreme Court ruled that states were no longer able to ban same-sex marriage. For many, this was counted as a supreme victory, and it's undeniable that the United States just moved one massive step closer to total equality. There are celebrations all over the country right now, but it seems as if not everyone is riding a unicorn spewing rainbows out of their butts. There are many Christian movements stating that their ruling is unconstitutional and that this is against the teachings and ways of God, etc. As a Christian myself, I find it funny how those people are missing the point. It is clearly stated in the Bible that God accepts everybody, no matter race, nationality, sex, sexual oriantation, etc. and these people hellbent on representing a movement they created based on personal opinion, not factual representation.
So here it is. America is legally equal in almost every way possible!
What happens next?
Well, let's just hope that history doesn't repeat itself as in the Civil Rights Movement where states opposed to Gay Marriage find ridiculous ways to prevent same-sex couples from marrying (similar to how Jim Crow Laws prevented colored people from voting in the '60s). I'm feeling positive about this, because if anything, this nation seems to have learned, at least a little bit, from its mistakes.
Where do you stand?
