This week we mainly focused on gay marriage. In our discussion board thread, there was varying points mentioned about whether or not people agree with the topic. I personally side with the LDS Church on the matter, however, I'm not homophobic. I definitely don't hate people who have same sex attraction. In fact, I have some family members who are gay. If those family members ever get married to the same sex, I will still go to the wedding and develop a positive relationship with their partner.
I personally think that as Christians, we know that gay marriage is frowned upon by God, but we should remember that the only One who can judge people who have same sex attraction is God, not man. Everybody has agency, and God is the only Judge. I think that, as Christians, it would be helpful for us to remember an important commandment:
Love your neighbor.
