It saddens not only you when some of God's children choose to injure, spite, hate, or reject His other sons and daughters. It saddens Him, too. It saddens me! Everyone should be treated better than that regardless of their feelings or beliefs or orientation.
Families give strength to the children, the husband and the wife of the family, and their extended family, when they live in harmony and love.
I don't want families pulled apart, but I don't want them to disappear, either. There is a reason we try to build families from a man and woman united in love with respect for each other and God. Because it works! Many grow up without a loving mother, or without a loving father, and they do all right. But how they long for it when they know what it's like, and how much better would it be!
It's not about rejecting people who are different. When you get down to it, a man and a woman create children. They create families! That's because each is important to the family sticking together and growing in love and greatness! Families need everyone who went into the process of creating it. No family is perfect, but this is the model to follow. there really isn't any other way, logical, physical or emotional, that we can really have families! Without this, we wouldn't have families at all. just towns, communities, etc.
The position of the church hasn't changed. God's position hasn't changed. He has always loved all of His children no matter what they do. And He has never wanted His children to use sacred sexual relations for anything else but for a husband and wife bringing His other children into the world into a loving family, and for the man and woman becoming united and increasing in their love, honor, trust and kindness toward one another. There is no other right use. It's this way so that love and happiness can increase for everyone -- even people with homosexual tendencies.
Unfortunately we don't all get to have children or find a mate in this life, and sometimes marriages go sour or, worst of all, become abusive. This is also not God's will. He wants us to be happy, no matter what our gender or sexual tendencies are. He loves us all and expects us all to love one another. This has never changed.
Everyone is entitled to the same rights as children of God. This has always been. He wants us to become like Him and enjoy our individuality to the fullest, developing our unique personalities to a glory like His, and He wants to help us get there(takes more than a lifetime!).
