“If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a women, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them” (The Holy Bible, 1990), same-sex coupling, marriage, and activities have always been a hot topic and yes even murder was their punishment. Same sex marriages and LGBTQ2+ peoples have been criminalized, certifiable, and discriminated against since the beginning of time. This paper will demonstrate the peoples who have changed their mind to support them, as well as the minds who will never change. The three main components one must look at while ‘making up’ their mind is human rights, religion, and government. One would think that since it is a human right, you can not have an opinion on this, however some do not agree with that. Same sex marriages are a human right verified by governments that should not be interfered with by religion; LGBTQ2+ pride reflects the progressiveness of todays society.
