Guest Speaker: Holly Richardson

Today in class we had guest speaker Holly Richardson. Holly writes a blog called Holly on the hill. She's an political activist. When she was talking to us about bills that have been passed and bills that people want to be passed. One in particular the class wouldn't want to stop talking about is gay marriage. I didn't say anything in class because that is a very sensitive subject. Though the bill won't get passed in Utah, I would like to share what I personally feel about this. But before I do, I did like it how Holly said "Politics will effect your life." I agree with that statement because with whatever we do in life their will be something political behind it.

Now, back to the topic of gay marriage. I don't agree with having the same gender getting married to each other. This is how I've been raised and what I believe. Marriage is a sacred union that is to be shared with only a male and a female. I believe that we were put on this earth is to get married to the opposite gender and to have kids.

I know that others will criticize me but that's what I believe in.

  1. thanks for sharing your opinion, the entire nation is divided on this issue. Do you know what would happen to the institution of marriage if gay marriage were allowed, in fact it is allowed in a handful of states.
