Being Gay

I was sitting in History 101 Western Civ. today talking about Greece and Sparta, These civilisations were around long before Rome and Christianity were even thought of. The Spartans were great worriers in there time. There whole life was structured around War and training, even the Spartan women were trained to fight. There were cultures before Greece and Sparta that did not see anything wrong with lying with another man. So in reality Homosexual relationships have been for a lot longer then the touted Christianity that condemns the actions.

The Greeks gave us so much in way of art and science yet, every day people over look the fact that they commonly practice Homosexuality. Why do we pick and choose what we pass on? Women in Greek society were neither seen nor heard, most of their life revolved around the home and taking care of it. If you look at Greek art you see no female depiction's they are all male and for the most part they are without clothing. To the Greeks the male body was the sign of all things good.

So why is it that all the "Christians" out there believe that Being gay is wrong. Being Gay has been around longer than Christianity. They believe because they believe then we all should. If you watch the History Channel or read any history book you will see that to Christians if you are a non-christian you were a "Savage" and you needed to be converted. It is still going on today. Ever been harassed by Mormons or Jehovah's Witness? They are both offshoots of Christianity.

Why does it matter if a man wants to be married to a man they are not hurting anyone.
