The past few days my Facebook feed has been absolutely flooded with the yays or nays of voting on proposition one or bills similar to in various cities and states. Today Springfield voted on such a bill that will either keep or overturn a human rights bill which essentially protected the LGBT community and could potentially harm the Christian community.
It's been interesting to hear both sides of the argument. I always enjoy learning the differences between my faith and the faith of others. I find it even more interesting when Christianity is used in a way to support someone's behavior. I posted an article to my Facebook account yesterday that was a good read showing how the supporters of the LBGT community were using Christianity to support the LGBT community. I found it thought provoking and it also helped me to better understand just why so many people I know and consider my friend feel that Jesus is love and we should love everyone regardless of their sexual orientation.
I myself went to vote Yes to repeal only to discover I live outside of city limits and my opinion doesn't matter to the City of Springfield.
I wonder how many more cities and states will have such votes in hopes to preserve the rights of Christians?
