Love is love
Gay marriages are becoming more and more common in today's society. There are laws being passed in the New England states now that allow gay marriages.
Some people believe that more "non-religious" or "none" states will accept gay marriage easier. As USA TODAY explains, in New Hampshire the "nones" average is 29% of the population. The House of Representatives is to vote on whether or not to legalize the bill this week. Most people believe that it will pass because they have more nones.
Many other states are to follow including Rhode Island and Maine. In New York it is expected for the bill to pass by the Forth of July.
Many states have more religious identifications and are more likely to ban gay marriage rights.
Indeed, the more religious the states the less likely it is for them to pass the bill accepting gay marriage rights.
Even in New Mexico, the governor accepted the bill, yet the charge led by the catholics was enough to overturn the bill and get it denied.
Although the surveys conducted are based on religion, I believe the final say on a vote lies in the hands of the opions of the population, even if they are religious. Many religious people accept it as well.
Religion teaches the society or population to oppose the thoughts of two of the same sex. What if religion had no say in sexuality? It would completely be a person's own decision whether or not to accept a couple of the same sex. Although the opinions of peers would be a big influence on the person.
In a world without influences of religion I believe people would have more of a self opinion on things. But if your taught from a kid to disagree with something then you normally don't grow out of your opinion.
