Personally, I’m against gay marriage… but I hear the other side. The fact is, the only reason we know gay marriage to be immoral is because the Torah tells us. If it wasn’t for the Torah, nowadays, in our society, most of us would probably be pro-gay marriage. Now since we have the Torah we think it’s wrong… but if we would recognize that without Torah, we would probably agree with the pro gay marriage platform, how could we expect others to accept an anti-gay marriage platform without Torah? As immoral as we believe it to be, we only believe it to be immoral because the Torah tells us. How could we impose our religion on others? If we could impose our religion on others, what’s stopping them from imposing their religion on us?
