Running Head: SHOULD GAY MARRIAGE BE LEGAL? 1
SHOULD GAY MARRIAGE BE LEGAL? 2
The law states that it is the right of people not to be denied the option to marry who they want. I do not believe that it is your right to marry the person from you same with the same gender. Marriage is a special thing that should come from different sex. A marriage that has the same sex is not a marriage it is against the laws of the land and it may be viewed lightly, but I do not believe in it. (Brumbaugh, et al., 2008). The law is trying to implement a law that is not and should not be allowed. As much the law the states that you have the right to marry whoever you want from any point in the world, it should put a restriction to this by stating that marriage from the same gender is not a marriage but something that is against the growth of the state. So, the state should view this aspect in the point of considering how the future will be with no one to push and carry on the country to the next level. I believe that gay marriage is killing the next generation in a slow way.
I don’t believe that same-sex couples should have the rights to access the same benefits that are being enjoyed by heterosexual married couples. From the first point of view, I oppose gay marriage and not recognize it as a type of marriage. I believe that individuals may come up together in the name of being married just to benefit from the marriage benefits that protect the all married couple. (Brumbaugh, et al., 2008). This makes me believe that it is not right for a gay type of marriage to enjoy the benefits of the married couple. The same law in the United State that allowed gay marriage, is the same law that does not entitle gay marriage to all the benefits. The law does not give gay marriage the benefits of child labour support, this makes me wonder why gay marriage is viewed as a type of marriage, yet it does not enjoy all the benefits of marriage.
The law tends to say that the traditional marriage has changed and today marriage is even between the same gender. To me this is not correct I still believe in the traditional concept that marriage is between different sex. This makes me wonder why we want to divert from the way we used to believe and force in concepts that we were not brought up with. The idea of killing the traditional belief is away from killing the roots. And what if our elders were gay, would we be here today? It is important that we view concept from different angle their impact to the today and future generation.
We see that it is very interesting that the people that implemented the law of gay marriage are individuals that were given birth to by women, yet they are supporting gay marriage. Believing in that gay marriage is legal and allowed I see the next and future generation dead for there will be no generation for the current generation has stacked to the same gender marriage making the not able to give birth.
