Homosexual

"Should Homosexuals be given the right to legally marry?"

Is there a need to give homosexuals the right to legally marry?

  1. There is not a need to give homosexuals the right to legally marry.
    1. Homosexuals make up a very small percentage of the population.
      1. Homosexual Marriage

      2. In a highly sophisticated study on sexuality in America, known as the National Health and Social Life Survey (NHSLS), found that only 2.8 percent of the men said they thought of themselves as homosexual or bisexual. (Straight Answers: Exposing the Myths and Facts About Homosexuality. Sex in America: A Definitive Survey, Robert T. Michael, John H. Gagnon, Boston, 1994, p. 176. Family Website. Online. Internet Available at http://www.family.org/cforum/fosi/homosexuality/ maf/a0028248.cfm.)
      3. In a highly sophisticated study on sexuality in America, known as the National Health and Social Life Survey (NHSLS), found that only 1.4% of the female, population identify themselves as gay, lesbian, or bisexual. (Straight Answers: Exposing the Myths and Facts About Homosexuality. Sex in America: A Definitive Survey, Robert T. Michael, John H. Gagnon, Edward O. Laumann, Boston, 1994, p. 176. Family Website. Online. Internet Available at http://www.family.org/cforum/fosi/homosexuality/maf/a0028248.cfm.)
      4. The claim that 4 million men and 2 million women are gay is based on multiplying the 2.8% and 1.4% figures by the total number of males and females in the U.S. It is unreasonable to count any of the 60 million Americans who are 14 or younger (including 40 million who are under nine years of age) as "openly gay men and women." (Straight Answers: Exposing the Myths and Facts About Homosexuality. Sex in America: A Definitive Survey, Robert T. Michael, John H. Gagnon, Edward O. Laumann, 1994, p. 176. Family Website. Online. Internet Available at http://www.family.org/cforum/fosi/homosexuality/maf/a0028248.cfm.)
      5. According to Census 2000 figures, there are a total of 106,741,426 households in the U.S., only 00.42% of those are unmarried same-sex households. (Straight Answers: Exposing the Myths and Facts About Homosexuality. Sex in America: A Definitive Survey, Robert T. Michael, John H. Gagnon, Edward O. Laumann, 1994, p. 176. Family Website. Online. Internet Available at http://www.family.org/c forum/fosi/homosexuality/ maf/a0028248.cfm.)

        Ban Homosexual Marriage?

    2. Action has already been taken to deny homosexual marriage.
      1. Currently thirty-nine states have Defense of Marriage Acts (DOMAs). (DOMA Watch Homepage DOMA Watch Website. Online. Available at http://www.domawatch.org/)
        1. The federal Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) defines marriage as a legal union between one man and one woman for purposes of all federal laws, and provides that states need not recognize a marriage from another state if it is between persons of the same sex. (DOMA Watch Homepage DOMA Watch Website. Online. Internet. Available at http://www.domawatch.org/)
        2. Homosexual Marriage and the Bible

      2. Jesus said They record that from the beginning God made them male and female. This explains why a man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two are united into one. (The book of Matthew Chapter 19 Verses 5-6 Holy Bible. New Living Translation.)
      3. The Law of Moses says Do not practice homosexuality; it is a detestable sin.(The book of Leviticus Chapter 18 Verse 22 Holy Bible. New Living Translation.)
        1. The Law of Moses was spoken directly from God to Moses. (The book of Leviticus Chapter 18 Verse 1 Holy Bible. New Living Translation.)
      4. Today I call upon the Congress to promptly pass, and to send to the states for ratification, an amendment to our Constitution defining and protecting marriage as a union of man and woman as husband and wife, President Bush said on February 24, 2004. (President Calls for Constitutional Amendment Protecting Marriage. Whitehouse Website. Online. Internet. Available at http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2004/02/20040224-2.html.)
    3. Homosexuals have civil unions to certify their relationships.
      1. A civil union is a legal recognition of a homosexual couple (Conn. nears OK of gay civil unions Boston news Website. Online. Internet. Available at http://www.boston.com/news/local/connecticut/articles/2005/02/25/.)
      2. Bush also said state legislatures should be left to define "legal arrangements other than marriage," suggesting that such an amendment would allow states to establish civil unions for same-sex couples. (Bush Calls for Ban on Same-Sex Marriages. CNN News Website. Online. Website. Available at http://www.cnn.com/2004/ALLPOLITICS/02/24/elec04.prez.bush.marriage/.)
      3. Kerry, the front-runner for the Democratic presidential nomination, has said he supports civil unions and equal protection for gays and lesbians but that he opposes marriage for them. (Bush Calls for Ban on Same-Sex Marriages. CNN News Website. Online. Website. Available at http://www.cnn.com/2004/ALLPOLITICS/02/24/elec04.prez.bush.marriage/.)
  2. The disadvantages outweigh the advantages of homosexual rights to marriage.
    1. A marriage without a mother and a father is destructive to children.
      1. Violent crime, drug abuse, teen pregnancy and suicide are often associated with being raised without an involved father. (Fathers and Families By Pete du Pont Washington Times. National Center for Policy Analysis Website. Online. Internet. Available at a http://www.ncpa.org/abo/dc/062004fathers.htm
      2. Nearly two-thirds of adolescent murderers are from fatherless homes. (Fathers and Families By Pete du Pont Washington. Internet. Available at http://www.ncpa.org /abo/cd/062004fathers.htm.)
      3. Seventy percent of juveniles in state reform institutions came from fatherless homes. (Fathers and Families By Pete du Pont Washington Times. National Center for Policy Analysis Website. Online. Internet. Available at http://www.ncpa.org /abo/cd/062004fathers.htm.)
      4. Sixty percent of America 's rapists grew up without fathers in their homes. (Fathers and Families By Pete du Pont Washington Times. National Center for Policy Analysis Website. Online. Internet. Available at http://www.ncpa.org /abo/cd/062004fathers.htm.)
      5. A boy raised by both parents is about half as likely by 30 to be incarcerated for committing a crime. (Fathers and Families By Pete du Pont Washington Times. National Center for Policy Analysis Website. Online. Internet. Available at http://www.ncpa.org/abo/cd/062004fathers.htm.)
      6. Children raised by both parents are a third less likely to use illegal drugs, tobacco or alcohol than children in single-parent homes. (Fathers and Families By Pete du Pont Washington Times. National Center for Policy Analysis Website. Online. Internet. Available at http://www.ncpa.org/abo/cd/062004fathers.htm.)
      7. Queer

    2. Practicing homosexuality is a health hazard.
      1. As of December, 2001, 45 percent of all AIDS cases involved men who were exposed to the disease through having sex with other queer men while 4 percent of the cases were among men who had heterosexual contact.30 (Straight Answers: Exposing the Myths and Facts About Homosexuality 30THE HIV/AIDS Surveillance Report, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Family Website. Online. Internet Available at http://www.family.org/cforum/fosi/homosexuality/maf/a0028248.cfm.)
      2. A study reported that lesbians may have higher rates of breast and ovarian cancer because of a variety of risk factors like null parity (never having borne a child), childbearing later in life, higher rates of alcohol consumption and obesity.( Health Implications Associated With Homosexuality, The Medical Institute for Sexual Health, March 1999, p. 51. Family Website. Online. Internet Available at http://www.family.org/cforum/fosi/homosexuality/maf/a0028248.cfm.)

      3. Queer is the common term for gays that the old generation used. The new generation are not as familar with the politically incorrect term of queer.

        Leviticus 20:13

        If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.

        Deuteronomy 23:17-18

        There shall be no whore of the daughters of Israel, nor a sodomite of the sons of Israel.

        Thou shalt not bring the hire of a whore, or the price of a dog, into the house of the LORD thy God for any vow: for even both these are abomination unto the LORD thy God.

        These Weekly Bible Verses are brought to you by Homosexual Marriage:

        Isaiah 45:15
        Truly You are God, who hide Yourself, O God of Israel, the Savior!

        Isaiah 45:21
        Tell and bring forth your case;Yes, let them take counsel together. Who has declared this from ancient time? Who has told it from that time? Have not I, the LORD? And there is no other God besides Me, A just God and a Savior; There is none besides Me.

        Isaiah 49:26
        I will feed those who oppress you with their own flesh, And they shall be drunk with their own blood as with sweet wine. All flesh shall know That I, the LORD, am your Savior, And your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.”

        Isaiah 60:16
        You shall drink the milk of the Gentiles, And milk the breast of kings; You shall know that I, the LORD, am your Savior And your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.

        What is the greatest commandment?

        Deuteronomy 6:5
        And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.

        Matthew 22:36-38
        35   Then one of them, which was a lawyer, asked him a question, tempting him, and saying,
        36   Master, which is the great commandment in the law?
        37   Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
        38   This is the first and great commandment.
        39   And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
        40   On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

        A homosexual should repent and obey. Galatians 6:6
        Let him that is taught in the word communicate unto him that teacheth in all good things.
