Re: “Gay marriage and America’s declining morals,” March 24 letter to the editor.
There are many who wish to return to the day when GLBT people had to hide their sexual orientation and live their lives hiding the ones they loved.
There are those who think that giving GLBT people equal rights will cause the sky to fall and that recognizing the conduct of these people will lead to eternal damnation.
The U.S. and Europe may fall like Babylon and the Roman Empire, but it won’t be because GLBT people can lead their lives telling the world whom they love and receiving equal rights under the U.S. Constitution.
The U.S. has been a world leader for centuries, recognizing that giving rights to people leads to a better society. History has never been kind, nor will it be, to those who discriminate against others for whatever reason.
