America: Homosexual Christians

America. Greatest country on Earth. The powerful capitalist nation. America. Land of the free, home of the brave. America. One nation, under God. The “Christians.” America. Homosexual.

Like we discussed in English, generation Y is the most diverse, tolerant, and accepting generation in the history of America. We are becoming more and more liberal every day. Looking at AfterElton.com, I have realized how much homosexuality has been accepted in this country. You see it in the way we talk, what we listen to, and what we watch. The way advertising and entertainment works. Proves this. Marketing creates and broadcasts what American viewers like. Knowing this and looking at shows like Torchwood, Ugly Betty, Brothers & Sisters, and Project Runway, I’ve come to the conclusion that many people in America have become more accepting of homosexuality. The funny thing is that, America being a predominantly Christian country, these people don’t see anything wrong with it. If you really think about it, homosexuality is just another sin, right? Then why is it that “Christians” think that it is acceptable? I know why. To quote Christian hip-hop artist Lecrae, “America ain’t Christian. They’re just practicing the ritual.”
