I was watching a documentry about gays. The documentry showed people who were against gays. The person said that gays are not Christians. They are not Christians!! Like a person can actually say who is and who isn't a Christain. What?! Wow! If our idea of a Christain doesn't line up with the person, they just are not a Christian. Because they are gay and are sinning by being gay they are not Christians. In the Bible, it says, very clearly, that sin is equal. This means, that a gay person and a person who tells a lie are in the same boat. So, basicly, to say that someone is not a Christian because, they are gay and homosexuallity is a sin, is the same as saying the person that curses isn't a Christian, either. We all sin. That's the whole point of Jesus. Through him, we are saved. We aren't saved because, we are such good people, we deserve being saved. If that were the case, I don't know one person that would be saved and to say that because, they are sinners they are not Christain is ludacris. So, what are these people talking about? The bible talks endlessly about judging others. You, just plain and simple, should not judge others. Basically, you worry about yourself and if you have kids you make sure they are raised to know God, we are not here to say who deserves God's love or enforce the laws of the bible. I'm not saying we shouldn't pray for others I'm just saying we shouldn't judge others. We are here to follow God the way we see fit and teach others the word of God. We are, also, supposed to strive to be like Jesus. Jesus hung around with prositutes and all kinds of sinners. When he was asked about that he said something to the effect of "Is it not the sick that need a docter and not the healthy?" Just think about that. Those people Jesus hung around just as easily could have been some homosexuals and it would have been the same thing. What does it matter if a person is gay? If they are a Christian, they will be saved just like all the rest of us sinners. Who are we to judge them and say they are going to hell? We all sin so to say that would be implying we are all going to hell right along with them. Also, I know a few gay guys and not one of them would say that it was easy for them to come out to their family and friends. Their parents wouldn't talk to them for a year or more, they lost friends and sometimes they are put in situations where they fear being beat up, simply, over being gay. So, it's not easy for them. But, they risk all of that so they don't have to lie to themselves or other people anymore. So, if you think that way about gays just think about all of this. Also, I found this online and I think you should read it.
12 Reasons Gay marriage will ruin society.
Homosexuality is not natural, much like eyeglasses, polyester, and birth control are not natural.
Heterosexual marriages are valid because they produce children. Infertile couples and old people cannot get legally married because the world needs more children.
Obviously gay parents will raise gay children because straight parents only raise straight children.
Straight marriage will be less meaningful, since Britney Spears's 55-hour just-for-fun marriage was meaningful.
Heterosexual marriage has been around for a long time, and it hasn't changed at all: women are property, Blacks can't marry Whites, and divorce is illegal.
Gay marriage should be decided by the people, not the courts, because the majority-elected legislatures, not courts, have historically protected the rights of minorities.
Gay marriage is not supported by religion. In a theocracy like ours, the values of one religion are always imposed on the entire country. That's why we only have one religion in America.
Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people makes you tall.
Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage license.
Children can never succeed without both male and female role models at home. That's why single parents are forbidden to raise children.
Gay marriage will change the foundation of society. Heterosexual marriage has been around for a long time, and we could never adapt to new social norms because we haven't adapted to cars or longer lifespans.
Civil unions, providing most of the same benefits as marriage with a different name are better, because a "separate but equal" institution is always constitutional. Separate schools for African-Americans worked just as well as separate marriages will for gays & lesbians.

Give me your eyes.
I love this song, so, I wanted to share it. It's called Give me your Eyes by Brandon Heath. You guys should listen to it. You'll like it.
Looked down from a broken skyTraced out by the city lightsMy world from a mile highBest seat in the house tonightTouched down on the cold black tileHold on for the sudden stopBreath in the familiar shockOf confusion and chaosAll those people going somewhere?Why have I never cared?
Chorus:Give me your eyes for just one secondGive me your eyes so I can seeEverything that I keep missingGive me your love for humanityGive me your arms for the broken hearted The ones that are far beyond my reachGive me your heart for the once forgottenyeahyeahyeahyeah
Step out on a busy streetSee a girl and our eyes meetDoes her best to smile at meTo hide whats underneathTheres a man just to her rightBlack suit and a bright red tieToo ashamed to tell his wifeHes out of workHes buying timeall those people going somewhere?Why have I never cared?
Chorus
Give me your eyes for just one secondGive me your eyes so I can seeEverything that I keep missingGive me your love for humanityGive me your arms for the broken hearted The ones that are far beyond my reachGive me your heart for the once forgottenyeahyeahyeahyeah
Ive Been there a million timesA couple of million eyesjust move and pass me byI swear I never thought that I was wrongWell I want a second glanceSo give me a second chanceTo see the way you see the people all alone
Chorus (x2)

My baby's going to me a kid.
Where did the newborn baby go? When I had Jayden he was the first newborn I'd held in a LONG time. I think he was the first newborn any one in the family had held in a LONG time. What's even better he's all mine!! It was so nice to hold him and look at him. He brought so many joys with him when he entered our world, what a blessing. Who would have thought a little boy could make people so happy? He was such a well natured baby, just laid back and easy going. I used to say how I thought I could put him out in the driveway in the cold to play by himself and he wouldn't cry about it. People who didn't even like other baby's liked Jayden. He's so charming. He was just perfect. Plain and simple. Now, he's about to turn 5! 5 years old in about 2 and a half months. I keep saying it over and over in my head. 5, Jayden's going to be 5. Over and over and over agian. That's how I usually get used to my kids turning a year older. Only, this time, I don't think it's helping me. I just can not believe my baby is turning 5!! 5 is the age they can not be labeled as babies anymore! They are offically kids! Just kids that run around the house being loud, eating all the food and begging you to buy them new stuff. Yup, a kid just like every other kid. They start school and offically enter the begining of the transition into the real world. He's been with Julyan pretty much Julyan's WHOLE life, save for one night jayden stayed the night at his grandma's house, and now he's supposed to go to kindergarden without even Julyan. I thought about trying to get them to let Julyan in with Jayden because Julyan is just as smart as Jayden or holding Jayden back a year so they could bo it together but, that's probably not healthy. Anyway my baby turning 5. Hard to imagine. This is freaking me out similarly to the way my mom feels when she thinks of huge masses of water or when you repeat the same thing to her over and over again. Or how my sister feels when there is a balloon around. Truly FREAKED out! Now, I know how they feel.
