Carrie Underwood Voices Gay Marriage Support

We Must Promote and Pursue Healing and Wholeness, NOT Political Activism:
It DOES matter whether people are born gay or not. True and correct science matters.
And since homosexuality is caused by emotional trauma, ignoring this SCIENTIFIC FACT will result in more gay suicides. Emotional trauma requires healing and resolution and much love and understanding, not politics.
Telling someone who is gay that they didn't experience any emotional trauma and that they're just fine is completely insensitive at best and mean-spirited at worst.

Gay feelings come from emotional trauma early in life - this trauma can come in the form of being rejected by a parent, neglect, and overbearing parent, abandonment by a parent, and NEED NOT BE strictly physical or sexual abuse.

Gay Suicides INCREASE in Gay-Friendly Nations:
Being supportive of the basic civil rights of gays and lesbians does not require a belief in the false notion that people are born gay. They are not. Homosexuality is caused by emotional trauma - from childhood neglect, abuse, or any number of traumatic causes.

If we love someone, we want to see them healed (from the emotional trauma connected to the homosexual feelings), not see them get married.

In the Netherlands where gay marriage has been accepted for quite awhile now, has seen no decrease in gay suicide - in fact, some studies show an increase.

If you do not promote emotional healing and resolution and instead choose to ignore it for your own selfish reasons, their blood is on your hands.

Homosexuality Caused By Emotional Trauma as Early as 4 Years Old: Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA 2009): "One half of the victims...often linked their homosexuality to their sexual victimization experiences...The age at the time of the molestation ranged from 4 to 16 with a mean age of 10."

Homosexuality Linked to Emotional Trauma Says Medical Studies - a SEVENFOLD Increase: W.C. Holmes, MD said: "Abused [male] adolescents, particularly those victimized by males, were up to 7 times more likely to self-identify as gay or bisexual..."

Ex-Gay Says Homosexuality Caused By His Emotional Trauma Starting at Age 6:

Author and AIDS victim Jerry Arterburn said: "I was involved in the homosexual world as a blatant attempt to obtain the affection from other men that I did not receive from my own father." (from his autobiography "How Will I Tell My Mother?")

Due to his sensitive nature, he was more deeply affected than most boys when his own father rejected him early in life. Without a loving father figure, he yearned for affection from other boys by the age of six. His yearning became sexualized at puberty. He said being abused or severely neglected in childhood was "too common a thread to ignore" in the gay community and his female mannerisms were due to his mother, his only role model. He was NOT born gay.

Sexual Identity Confusion (Transgenderism, Homosexuality) Caused by Emotional Trauma:

Good, rational thinking, Carrie. While the situational christians like to castigate anyone who doesn't think as they dictate, you have a very good and positive attituded that is in line with our secular Constitutional society: That all people are created equally by the Creator (not 'god' because 'god' is interpretive by those who are hellbent on their own self-righteousness)...

..."regardless" of the racial, religious or ethnic bigotries of others.

Good job, Carrie.

Down the road from us is a small church with a sign out front that says:

"God seeks spiritual fruits...

...not religious nuts."

How appropriate. I would add that absolute faith is the absence of man-made religionism.

How sad; I wouldn't say that I am or am not a fan of Carrie Underwood, but I will say that I question the authenticity of the statement that she is a "devout Christian". This latest stand that Miss Underwood has taken is not the first time that I have questioned her beliefs, some of her songs have also left me baffled as to whether or not she stands for the truth of God's Word. The fact that her church is "Gay friendly" is most surely where she has formed her opinions on gay marriage. She's not part of a true Bible believing, God fearing church body, but is following the more worldly and popular form of "Christianity" that promotes a relative truth and tolerance at all costs; the main cost being the truth in God's word where He doesn't leave us guessing about how He feels about homosexuality. She has exchanged the truth of God's word for the lies of the World, and that just makes me extremely sad.

i'm not nor have I ever been a big fan of Carrie Underwood.....I would say that if Nashville feels that she has paid her dues...then so be it.....I in no way see where she's paid any dues except show herself off for Nashville record producers....I also will add that if GOD himself says that being homosexual or lesbian makes Him sick....which by the way....i'm not judging nobody.....GOD himself has already done that for us....if GOD says it makes Him sick.......then to all Christians alike....it should make them sick to their stomachs as well.

To Allangr, what I posted is my personal opinions, and after reading your post you have strong personal beliefs regarding Ms. Underwood. My repsonse is this; just because someone has great vocal abilities and has won a ton of awards does not mean they have paid their dues. When I say "Pay Her Dues" I am talking about struggling musicians out their day after day, month after month, year after year wanting to get their music heard and trying to make it in the music business. We all have heard the stories about those strugging musicians from all geners of music, and then one day they finally make it. But then there are thousands of ones that don't make it. I don't believe that Mr. Underwood spent years singing in trashy honky tonks, pool halls and dives trying to get her music out their. Thats all I meant by paying her dues. Hey, I agree with you that she is famous and has won tons of awards and she is loved by millions, good for her, I do not in anyway begrudge her for that, I'm just not one of those millions that call themselves fans. But I have felt that way ever since I saw her on American Idol, this has nothing to do with her stand on same sex marriage. I am sure there are musicians out there that you don't like, even though there are millions of people that love them and that they have won all sorts of awards, and that's ok, you are entitled to your opinion. Well just like you are entitled guess what, so am I. What I don't like is those of you who get pretty angry at the ones who don't agree with Ms. Underwood or do not care for her music. You guys get pretty personal with your attacks, I try not to do that. All I do is share my thoughts and my beliefs and there are many like me that do the same but from a lot of the posts I've read so far their are the ones that are very intolerant of us and you become very judgemental. I have never attacked Ms Underwood or called her any names and I have never attacked anyone here that have views that are opposite of mine. This should be a place where anyone has the opportunity to post their views and beliefs. Please remember, this blog is all about Ms. Underwoods view on same sex marriage, its not about people with opposite views.
