I never thought I would love a picture of an animal as much as I love this one. Its a picture by Andy Warhol. One of my favorite artists of all time. (: I love this Zebra. I believe that it gives a new color to Zebras. Making them more fun. What I love about Andy Warhol is that he had such originality that it was insane. (: He was called the "Prince of Pop Art". This man was Homosexual. Now It seems that one of the major problems in today’s society is the struggle with loving homosexual people. Believe it or not, the group that shows the most rejection towards homosexuals is the Christians. If you asked a Christian what they thought about homosexuality you might get discussed answers. But in all reality they are just people like you and me; trying to deal with every day sin and work through problems like anyone else. We all are just trying to find the truth and how each person finds it is different. They are only moving through life the best that they know how to. Why must they be treated differently? They deserve to be treated like people. Just because people are bisexual does not give us the right to treat them horribly. Take a look at this story:
“Hello. I'm 16. I live in Baku. I'm gay, I like boys. My parents hate me because of it. They think that I'm abnormal. Every day boys kick and beat me, like a little girl. It's so difficult to live here. Everywhere you should hide the orientation. Because of it here you can even die. And if you are gay, you haven't got any rights except prostitution.”
Why should someone have to die because they are gay? It does not make any sense. Why can’t we just love them for who they are? It’s gotten so bad that people are even afraid to admit that they are homosexual. Is that what it has come to? They are hiding who they truly are in order not to be judged or prosecuted. They are still people. They should have the same rights and permissions that we do. Sexual orientation means nothing when you are friends and I don’t believe it should matter in any other situation.
What about how God views the homosexual people? God does not hate gays. He hates the sin but not the person. How could He? He created us. He is always willing to help.
Another point I want to look at is that homosexual’s need acceptance. This is the most difficult aspect that we face. We don’t know what is going on inside their heads. One popular reason for “being gay” is a family dysfunction. But I do believe that homosexual people experience a lack of acceptance. I believe this is why they group together rather than mix.
`We, as Christians, can act like spiritual jerks. We have a fountain of life inside of us and we chose not to share it with them. This action is selfish. We may be uncomfortable but I believe that God puts us in their lives to help them and influence them.
I believe we should follow the example set down by our father. We should love everyone. No matter if they are gay, ill, homeless, or of different races or religions. We need to learn to love these people and accept them for who they really are. God still loves them and we should too. The cause of being gay is suffering brought on to a person as a child. I believe that it can be cured with just the right amount of love and a good example to guide them back on to the right path.
