Gays and the Church

I was recently discussing the Church and it's stance on Gays and Gay marriage with my Dad.I came to a realization,that the reason the Bible states that a marriage is between a man and a woman is because the people that wrote the Bible were anti-homosexuals.Remember,this is not the word of God,but a man's interpretation of God's word with all that person's feelings(similar to a movie director  and his interpretation of a novel or story).In either case,the story line is mostly factual,but they do take some artistic freedom.If there was no homosexuality around when the Bible was written,there would be no need to state what a marriage is or is not.I think it may be time for all of us (including the Church)to be a little more tolerate of people who are different than us and more accepting.


While I'm at it,I'd like to offer my take on God.There is one God,I believe we can all agree on that.But, I think the God that the various religions pray to is just that one God.Christians and Jews and Muslims and Buddists and Hindus are all praying to one Supreme Being.I think when we get to meet God,he is going to look like our image of him(or her).If we all could wrap our heads around the idea that all the religion's Gods are one and the same being,maybe we could stop all these religious wars.
