Homosexual Marriages vs Heterosexual Marriages
In the 20th Century homosexual rights and marriage was nonexistent. However, today Homosexual Marriage seems to have two major issues i.e. political and/or religious. In my opinion, homosexual Couples should not be allowed to marry or adopt children because it is not supported by religion, morals, and biological factors.

Homosexual marriages are not supported in most religions because it is written that God’s purpose is for a man and a woman to join as one and reproduce. Many people of faith look to both sacred texts such as the bible, and tradition for guidance on this issue. Homosexuality is never mentioned in the bible as an acceptable behavior. In some countries homosexuality is a cause for death and imprisonment. An individual is not born as a homosexual but choose to live that lifestyle as a preference. Some men and women prefer give and receive love from the same sex. God made man and woman and placed them together with the intention for more men and women relationships.

If someone chooses to have a homosexual relationship that is their choice but allowing a homosexual union to be legal is a clear misrepresentation of God’s plan.
Homosexual marriages are not supported by morals and values. The common argument is that homosexual marriages are immoral. ( Sberman 1992). It is an attack on the family...
