As I cogitate on the history of our country it appears to be a pattern that whenever the public did not and does not like someone they declare it a non-entity. Examples are the Indians, Negroes, unborn babies and most recently homosexuals.
The public, as in the majority, has never been a reliable group to determine what is right i,e, tghe examples above. And Christians have forfeited our right to be indignant about homosexuals due to our acceptance of adultery, also a violation of God's laws. Adultery is wrong only because God says it is, now. In the OT times God accepted adultery as a way of life. Go figure. In fact due to the stubbornness of HIS people HE changed the rules. Jesus said he did. But I digress.
Why would we let the government prohibit people who are attracted to the same gender as themselves from protecting our country?And asking the military to vote on their preference is ludicrous. When did the military become a democracy?
What both the military and our courageous Representatives and Senators were looking and hoping for was a court decision that they could blame for having to repeal DADT. Cowards to say the least and hypocrites at best.
It is more than past time to get governments out of the sex lives of the citizens. If we continue to permit government interference, even though we agree with them, THIS time, wait and you will find you and your preferences on the next federal or state hit list. It is not governments business to determine who may and may not commit to each other.
