Gay rights

You know how they say they have to keep church and state separate, than why stop gays from having their rights? A woman was not allowed to be with her dieing lover because they were gay. If someone chooses to be gay and you truly think they will go to hell than why should you worry, its not like you will go to hell. Plus god is forgiving, if you ask you shall receive. Its better to admit who you are than lie to everyone you meet, your self, and live unhappy for the rest of your life. You cant choose who you fall in love with, and the government has no right to tell us who we can and can not love, that is what a dictator dose, i thought this was a free country, i guess i was wrong about you america.
