DOMA, Prop 8

This week has been raft with discussion on DOMA and Prop 8.  I have a few friends that did legalize their long term union and I celebrate with them.  I find it interesting that so many are feeling it ok to criticize things without thinking about how that may apply to them, when you are discussing sin.  I cannot speak to the teachings of the Koran, I can speak to the teachings of the Bible, the Torah and the Talmud.  "Judge not...."  ......" Cast the first stone".....

For instance, when you marry, you are committing yourself for life.  How many people do you know who have divorced their spouse after a few years because....well...whatever....the effort got to hard, their spouse was going through a bad time, they got bored....Or, how many times have you broken  one of the commandments?  What does it matter if you go to confession every Sunday, yet keep doing the same things over and over? Or  "fall out, speak in tongue" on Sunday but go back to the same behavior on Monday?


I keep coming back to the same thing....God is LOVE!  Just take a look at the world!  The number of races, colors, beliefs, living situations.  He/she said were created in their image and if that image is perfection, then we are perfection.  Each of us is a work of God's manifested beauty on Earth!!!
