Same Sex Marriages
“If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a women, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them” (The Holy Bible, 1990), same-sex coupling, marriage, and activities have always been a hot topic and yes even murder was their punishment. Same sex marriages and LGBTQ2+ peoples have been criminalized, certifiable, and discriminated against since the beginning of time. This paper will demonstrate the peoples who have changed their mind to support them, as well as the minds who will never change. The three main components one must look at while ‘making up’ their mind is human rights, religion, and government. One would think that since it is a human right, you can not have an opinion on this, however some do not agree with that. Same sex marriages are a human right verified by governments that should not be interfered with by religion; LGBTQ2+ pride reflects the progressiveness of todays society.

With trembling hands, Alex clutched a rainbow-colored bracelet, a symbol of hope and identity. For as long as Alex could remember, they had been aware of their attraction to the same gender, a truth that had recently come to light. However, this newfound self-awareness also exposed them to the harsh reality of being different in a world that often turned a blind eye to acceptance.

Beneath the Rainbow. Content Warning.
Once upon a time, in the small town of Crestville, there stood a school nestled between rolling hills and a crystal-clear river.

He had a secret he kept hidden beneath his heart-shaped pendant – a secret that painted his world with vibrant colors and the promise of acceptance.
