Love and Marriage

I am gay. And I am no longer afraid to say that. I believe that Love between two men (or women) is not a sin. Can you hear me God! I want you to know that homosexuality is not wrong. Love is not wrong. When a man Loves another human being with all his heart, whether male or female (it does not matter), then there can be no wrong, no evil. When Love is pure and wants for sharing in any individual, it matters not with what sex the said person does devotedly give it to. Why should it? Hear me Lord for I say that, “To Love another human being, and to freely give your heart to them, is divine!” For what better purpose is there in life than to give freely of that one most beautiful gift -your Love- that you so graciously bestowed upon us. For if it were so wrong and sinful to Love another of the same sex, as many would so accuse my kind, then why is that I Love? Why is that you have given me this gift to give and share my life with whomever I so chose? And I choose to Love him. Yes, a man no less in Love with me, who chooses to share his Love, his body - his Life - with me as I do with him. Let the world see that we are but two souls twined in the Love of two mortal bodies. Be they of the male form, two immortal souls in Love, as it should be. Amen.
