Rhode Island Marriage Law:

 

In June 2011, the Rhode Island General Assembly passed legislation allowing civil unions, offering the same benefits of marriage to those entered into a civil union.  Governor Lincoln Chafee signed the bill into law, which will take effect July 1, 2011.

    In case you were unaware, there is something called Separation of Church and State. The Church has no right to influence the laws of the state and to decide what is and isn't illegal. The pledge of allegiance also states: "…with liberty and justice for all." The pledge of allegiance does not specify with liberty and justice for heterosexuals only. It says for all. This means blacks, whites, hetero and homosexuals. Everyone. Just as the civil rights movement years ago changed life for blacks, the gay rights movement today will change life for homosexuals. Accept the change that is happening. One day, each state will allow homosexuals to marry and there nothing that will stop that day from coming. It may be years, even decades from now. But it will happen. A hateful generation is dying out and a new, more open and accepting generation is rising. Chaos and confusion of the world will not ensure. Homosexuality already exist as do marriages and adoptions between them. Accept the fact that times are changing and there is little that one man can do about it.

    If you read Leviticus in the Old Testament, Chapter 20 verse 13, you will see that homosexuality is an abomination. The Bible is the word of God. The founding fathers of the United States Constitution, believed in God. The pledge of allegiance states:
    "…and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."

    It is clear this nation was formed under a belief in obedience to our creator, our God! God has told us that homosexuality is an abomination. It is unnatural and not a design of God. There is not one person on earth who was born from Homosexuality or Homosexual parents. Not one! If homosexuality flourished, children would no longer be born on earth and earth will stop being populated. Earth would fall. Homosexuality is wickedness and again, is stated in the Bible as an abomination. Enforcing non-discrimination of homosexuality in effect allows it to occur. Law enforcement then will begin to arrest individuals for violation of this "so-called discrimination of homosexuals" and good honest heterosexual people will begin to lose their freedom. Families will be broken up and children will not be born to homosexuals. Life on Earth would turn to chaos and confusion.

    Please outlaw homosexuality and conform to the laws of God. It is God who created all of us and it is HIS will that will bring peace and prosperity. Wickedness never was happiness and never will be. We must learn to obey our creator as the founding fathers desired.
