What are morals? Do morals define right from wrong? Who can judge us and tell us what is right or wrong? Throughout the creation of the earth there has been many accounts and stories about early life on earth. For example: Adem and Eve. Eve was given life when God took a rib from Adem and gave life to Eve. God created one man and one woman in the beginning of time, why? we'll discuss this matter later on. However, marriage of the same sex? Should it be approved? This matter is a very controversial topic. Who can say it is wrong to marry someone from the same sex. How can people say it is wrong when in reality no one knows what right or wrong really means. No one is perfect, we are humans we all make mistakes, so how can someone judge others.

The Catholic church is very fond of marriage and they strongly reinforce heterosexual marriage. Catholics believe that marriage is the union of a man and a woman. Nevertheless, how would a child feel if they grew up in a homosexual household? No one says that two people of the same sex are not apt to raise a child well, they might even do a better job than a couple of opposite sex. However, that is not the problem. Even the bible declares this act to be unrighteous. "Do you know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals....will inherit the kingdom of God."--1 Corinthians 6:9-10 (NKJV) The bible is a book of rules that one must follow if you believe in religion and in Christ or in the creator of this world and earth. Yet, people tend to rebel and go against the word.

During the beginning of time God created Adem and Eve. God created one man and one woman and not two guys. The purpose of creating a man and a woman was for the reproduction of human species. If God did not create a woman there would have been no reproduction of human species. God is sovereign and he knows what he is doing ,yet, there is always opposition of freedom of marriage within the gay community. The Catholic church opposes marriage of the same sex because they believe that it is immoral to marry within the same gender. I concur with the catholic church since God made rules since the beginning of time. Most people say God is love, it is true and God also gives freedom to the people. We can choose what we want to do with our lives, we have the capacity to make decisions. However, we have to scrutinize what God did since the very beginning of time. Humans have no right to go and start to change the rules. People have their own decisions but is the duty of the church to remind them that they are acting in ignorance and rebellion.
