Gay Rights


A bill was recently passed in Nigeria calling for the imprisonment of gay couples. This gave rise to many people speaking out, both for and against the bill. I am not homophobic but I feel this gay issue has been over-flogged.

I am a Christian and my Bible tells me that God created Adam and Eve. I do not know what other religions preach, but every living thing has two species; male and female. There is obviously a reason for that. I do not understand the attraction to people of the same sex, it is a huge deviation from the norm but that is their business.

I do not support the 14 year jail term because a lot of criminals get away with their crimes in Nigeria. The government should get busy with trying to create a secure country that cares about and caters to the needs of its citizens and not bother about jailing consenting adults who have chosen to live their lives with people of the same sex. On the other hand, I do not support the gay people who make a lot of noise asking for their rights.

What rights exactly? Their (gay) sexual preferences should not be shoved down our throats. They should keep it behind closed doors. Fornicators and adulterers do not ask for rights, their sexual escapades are in secret because sex is wrong outside marriage. Gay people act like victims a lot. I do not support their been killed or hurt, it is their choice, but they should let heterosexuals have a say too. It is not compulsory to like or accept the gay lifestyle.

I'm yet to even understand why they are allowed to adopt kids or have surrogates have kids for them. If everyone adopts the gay lifestyle, where will the children come from? I also fear for children who grow up with same sex parents. They grow up having a warped sense of what relationships should be. A lot of people have adopted this whole gay thing because they feel it's stylish, I'm sure it will fizzle out sooner than people expect. I do not and will never support them but I do not have a problem with them. Everyone will answer for his deeds; why bother myself with other peoples issues when I've got mine?

One Love,
Lae'

  1. The love that word can not describe that is what they don't want 2 experince. Wonder what the same sex would be doing wiv each other. Well, they have option & choice on what is good for them. God gave us two options about life he said it is either we choose life or death. These other ones(the gays) has made their choice about life.
