Dear Almost An Advocate,
Biblically speaking, a nation that puts God first will be blessed (Ps 33:12). God makes it clear that active homosexual lives are sinful and should be discouraged (Rom 1:26-27). When a Christian has a chance to impact the political realm of the society they are in, they should always try and shape that society in a way that discourages homosexuality. "Civil rights" for homosexuals isn't about treating them equally as humans; it is about making society more amenable to that sort of lifestyle.
