But I still want to marry the love of my life. I am hoping that one day, we will no longer be repressed by religion and will have the right to get married just like everyone else. I am gay and I believe in fidelity and monogomy and family. Being gay is not about “wanting sex all the time”; we have just as much passion, caring, devotion and love to give and our goals, desires and dreams are just as real as anyone else’s. And, for those straight conservatives who claim that people like me will ruin the “sanctity of marriage”, I think you have done a good job of that yourselves! How else would you explain a rise in the rates of divorce, separation, adultery, spousal abuse, single-parent homes, swingers and re-marriage? As of today, the divorce rate, in the U.S. is 50%!!! So, before you go shutting us down and not even giving us a chance, don’t you think you, yourselves, have some expalining to do? Don’t let President Bush and religious fundamentalists undo what our fore-fathers represented and fought for—freedom of religion and freedom from it!
