Mormons and Gays

"The experience of same-sex attraction is a complex reality for many people. The attraction itself is not a sin, but acting on it is. Even though individuals do not choose to have such attractions, they do choose how to respond to them. With love and understanding, the Church reaches out to all God’s children, including our gay and lesbian brothers and sisters."

~Mormons and Gays~

As a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, I don't support or believe in same-sex marriage, but this doesn't mean that I don't like same-sex couples. I recognize them as human beings as well as everyone else. I believe they should have the right to employment, voting, civil unions and insurance, but not marriage. Marriage has always been a union between a man and a woman since Adam and Eve.  This is the one and only definition that God has ever made and I am sticking with it. Every child deserves a right to be connected to his or her mother and father.
