Heck, maybe I’m too close to the dialogue. Someone close to me who was gay died a few years ago. He was a special guy named Buddy, who had good friends, a family who loved him, and a witty sense of humor. Through that experience, our family met Buddy’s incredible friends who knew and loved him, in his life and as he died.
They shared their lives with Buddy and, in his death, shared their lives with our family in warmth, comfort and genuine affection.
Never – in any era or generation or ideology – could I ever look upon a single one of them as less than pure or undeserving of Heaven’s grace on the basis of whether they prefer women or men romantically. And even if they were those things to an arbitrary mind, that would not make it anyone’s right to legislate a prohibition on one of our society’s most basic civil rights: to marry for love.
