While researching the issue of gay marriage I have read many interesting articles. Some of the articles were written by people who are for gay marriage and some were written by people who are against gay marriage. While arguing my position of being for gay marriage I have also taken into account the positions of others. This blog was in fact a project for my current English class and throughout this project my opinion about gay marriage has been influenced by many articles that I have read. At the beginning of this project I was for gay marriage and wanted to discover all the different binary issues associated with gay marriage. I have found a few articles that I would like to share. These articles helped me decide my fate and caused me to feel very strong about the legalization of gay marriage!

I found an article that tells how President Bush feels about the legalization of same sex marriage:

I found a few websites that had some interesting articles about the religious aspect against homosexuals and same-sex marriage:

The benefits of same sex marriage are within these websites:

I found an interesting article about the first gay couple to get married in the US:

I decided to search even further and see if I could find distinctive pros and cons of gay marriage. The following websites provide pros and cons of gay marriage:

Lastly, I would like to leave readers with bad arguments that are frequently used against gay marriage:
