Many religious people acknowledge that it is time to recognize the relationships of the gay people around us but don't like the idea of using the term marriage. Most are comfortable with civil union because they feel like they can hang on to the traditions that they see in marriage. Most gay people that I have spoken to on the subject don't particularly dislike the idea of a civil union, as long as they are afforded the same privileges that married people get, but they don't like being partitioned off from the rest of the people in their community. By not allowing the government to marry people, and to move everyone into a civil union, we can accomplish most of the goals of both sides, and restore the government to its proper place as a neutral and blind enforcer of contracts.
Okay, this is a little stereotypical, but the odds are that if you join a local women's sports team you will meet other lesbians. I hate to generalize, but lesbians often love sports. Field hockey would be of no existence without lesbian players. Another up and coming sport dominated by lesbians is roller derby. Take out the aggressive side of you and start meeting women! But anyway, many cities have gay and lesbian sport leagues, which is a Gay Men Sex great way to meet other people in the gay community. If you can't find any lesbians loved sports in your area, try to join some women sports, as this will increase your chances of meeting lesbians. If nothing comes out of it, at least you manage to meet more people and get yourself in better shape!
Jabba came to mind today as I thought about some recent occurrences in which the Federal government has gotten so big that it is doubling back on itself and putting itself in Gay Men some very weird situations and conflicts with the reality of the world around us:
It's an interesting time for me, a Christian lesbian,and a married New Yorker, to be preparing for my ordination. I have been serving in ministry at The Potter's House Church of the Living God in Brooklyn for many years now - singing, leading praise and worship, playing the organ, directing the choir, maintaining the website and most recently, teaching bible study and preaching. It may sound like a lot, but it doesn't feel that way when you're doing what you love. What I have yet to do is conduct a wedding ceremony. But it looks like that may be a prominent part of my job description since Gay marriage has been legalized in New York at just about the time when my ordination is about to become official.
It's not in your hands to choose your orientation, rather it is something that you were born with and have to live with. For long it had been difficult for the gay people to have their own family.

I'm definitely not perfect- I sin everyday- and I don't feel better than any of the homosexuals I've known but it's just not my particular weakness. I would hope most gays and lesbians could admit that the heterosexual model is natural- what we were designed for and what brought them life. And, to be blunt, the Bible does refer to homosexuality as unnatural (Rev 1:26-27). No homosexual would be alive today were it not for the natural union between a man and a woman. But back to the question of choice... There's an odd passage in Romans that has always puzzled me: " gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural Local Gay Men sexual relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another."
Depending on where you stay, it is commonly against the law to fire or refuse to hire someone due to gender, age, race or religion. However, most states do not have laws to protect people with different sexual orientation. In fact, in more than half of the states in this country, it is still legal Gay Men Sex for an employer to fire one of their employees just on the basis that they discovered that the employee was homosexual.

Another favorite technique is to have what I call a "Relationship Pow-Wow" to ensure your goals don't get forgotten or misguided. You and your partner would establish a ritual of having a "couple's meeting" at a regularly scheduled time and frequency in which you would discuss your relationship and goals status.

It occurred to be recently while watching television that the U.S. Federal government is really nothing more than the political incarnation of Jabba The Hutt from the Star Wars movies. As you may recall, Jabba was a formless, slow moving, overweight entity that ruled with an iron fist while devouring resources brought to him. He did not pay for anything, he just took them, and he was not there to help anyone but himself. Those he ruled over had no say in how their resources and wealth were used and had no chance in dislodging Jabba from his position of power. Kind of sounds like our political class currently sitting in DC.

Why is it more legitimate for a person from a hetero sexual couple to receive someone else's benefits after being married for five minutes than it is for a gay person not to receive those same benefits after being together for twenty years? Not to mention the fact that the federal and most state governments discriminate against these same people, by taking more money from them, by not allowing non-married people to use the same tax write offs. The government literally penalizes people for not marrying. Gay or straight, it doesn't matter; if you are not married they take more. I can't think of any other time when the government favors about half of the constituents over the other, based on a choice that they have made. Why do we find it necessary to separate the married? What kind of weird laws do we allow? How it is okay for our government to pick and choose their favorite citizens by giving discounts to certain groups for favorable behavior?
Another passage is Genesis 19:5 which is translated in many ways one of the originals is "And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them." Most of the reasoning behind this is that the men here mean know in a carnal manner the Hebrew verb that was used (?�oe?�"?�A�?�A?) is used 943 times in the bible and only ten of those times does it have a sexual meaning. From 1984 on many bibles are printed with it reading simply "that we may Men Seeking have sex with them." Many people are starting to believe that the city of Sodom was punished for its treatment to the strangers and how you should be kind to those you do not know; however, even if you subscribe to the rape theory I would have to say that it was the rape and not the homosexuality that angered God.
In all, one of the most important aspects of Federal and State recognition of marriage is the protections provided by the right of divorce, a predictable process by which property is divided, Black Gay Men debts are appointed and custodial and support arrangements are made.
This is just a sampling of the headlines on emails I received immediately after Judge Walker's decision to overturn Prop 8 in California. All of them had one thing in need to continue the fight, DONTATE TODAY.
