Last Saturday the NAACP, the 103 year-old civil rights group, announced their support of same-sex marriage. The group's board of directors made the decision at a meeting last weekend, saying it was a "historic continuation of equal protection under the law." The decision follows President Obama's announcement on his support for "gay" marriage this past month. Black religious leaders, who have opposed President Obama's stance on same-sex marriage, have softened their stance in recent days.
I'm not very surprised over the NAACP's decision to voice their support for same-sex marriage. The NAACP is all about political correctness. Since the NAACP supports Democratic candidates, they'll go along with whatever the agenda is. Could President Obama's and the NAACP's support of same-sex marriage be a divisive in this year's presidential election amongst the black community? I wish it would but given the track record of the voting record of black Americans, I project the vast majority will still vote for Barack Obama in this year's November election. Pastor Emmett said on the Sunday following President Obama's May 9 announcement concerning same-sex marriage that he opposed the president's decision but still will vote for Obama anyway. Moral/spiritual issues aren't that important to majority of Americans, regardless of race. Only a small minority of Americans vote on the basis of social/moral issues. Many civil rights leaders such as Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton want to equate "gay" rights on the same footing as the black communities in their quest to obtain civil rights in the 1960's. Nothing could be further from the truth. Blacks are born blacks. They had no choice of what their race would be when they're born. Contrary to the opinion of some in the media and the psychiatric community, nobody is born a homosexual. Homosexuality is a choice an individual makes. Nobody is born with homosexual tendencies. God made man to desire the opposite sex. A person that is a homosexual is not natural in his affections. That's unnatural.
