Dont Ask Don't Tell
There has been a lot of controversy on this subject. Folks thinking that people who don't support "gay rights" are homophobic. First of all I as a Christian do not have to support your cause as you don't support Christianity. And I am a Veteran so I can speak frankly on this subject. And a phobia or phobic means you are scrared of something. I am not scared of anybody, I fear our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. So I am not homophobic or any kind of phobic. Be that as it may here is my rant about the subject above. I for one don't feel it's a good idea to repeal "Don't Ask Don't Tell". It's about trust and having faith in your buddy during war time. That is a big thing especially in a combat arms unit (infantry,artillery,Marine amphibious unit, etc). You have to be able to trust the person in the foxhole with you in order for, both to stay alive, and to kill the enemy. People making these decision have never served or been near the military. I know President Obama is Commander In Chief but I think he is misguided on this one (as are most Democrats). Also as a Christian I am tired about the gay community trying to force their agenda on me. I don't think it should be forced on the military either. The Gay struggle is not the black struggle. I and many of my black brothers were born with the color of our skin. Being gay is a choice, you are not born with it. Nothing our there has shown that a person is born gay. It is an excuse that is used so they can go on living that lifestyle without being accountable to God. Yes heterosexual people do a lot of wrong every day. But it's in the Bible that God detests homosexuality (and I don't think I am paraphrasing). So I am saying that we as Christians should not be made to accept the practice of homosexuality. It does not mean we hate gay people or even dislike gay people. We don't like the behavior, it does not necessarily mean we don't like the person. So if gays want to serve of course that is their right as a US citizen. But it doesn't mean the military should accept them being open about it. And that's my spiel and rant for today. I'm here all week. Peace to the creatures and God Bless.
