In case you don't know much about those laws, they make it to where if you do so much as read out loud a passage of the Bible where homosexuality is mentioned in a negative aspect you can be arrested for commiting a crime of hate. This means that preachers can't preach the message that homosexuality is wrong. People can't voice their opinion if it happens to be that. Nothing can be published that states or suggests this.
I think that these laws are unconstitutional because they breach our amended rights (freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of religion). I also think that they are riduculous; just because a person doesn't agree with homosexuality doesn't mean that they hate gays and lesbians, and it tosses my beliefs into a category of actual hate and crimes against gay people.
I don't agree with the lifestyle, but I believe that we are all human beings who each deserve the same amount of respect, love and compassion no matter our differences.
So? Care to share?
