Post Carrie Underwood Supports Gay Marriage
on: June 22, 2012, 00:23

Although she really put herself out on a limb by doing this (considering a large amount of her, and country''s musics fan base is composed of strict Christian faith who are against homosexual behavior) Carie Underwood spoke out in support of gay marriage in a recent interview in Britain during her international Blown Away tour!

Quoted as saying:

"As a married person myself, I don''t know what it''s like to be told I can''t marry somebody I love, and want to marry… I can''t imagine how that must feel. I definitely think we should all have the right to love, and love publicly, the people that we want to love.

Above all, God wanted us to love others. It''s not about setting rules, or [saying] ''everyone has to be like me''. No. We''re all different. That''s what makes us special. We have to love each other and get on with each other. It''s not up to me to judge anybody."

She''s actually receiving quite a bit of backlash, receiving lots of personal attacks demeaning her as "working with Satan", among much harsher comments. Will this have an impact on the success of her new single or new album, both entitled "Blown Away" or is this just the initial controversy hitting the fan?

She''''s AWESOME for saying that! :D It''''s easy for people to STEREOTYPE others who are "different" from THEM, but in REALITY, stereotypes are products of FEAR and IGNORANCE! :|

Anyone who''s anyone can support gay marriage. If the state or congress doesn''t, we''re out of luck. Want gay marriage? Vote for your state lawmakers..don''t expect big government to do anything about it.

Um but having one of the biggest stars in the world right now coming out in support of it is going to influence people to voice their opinions to sway lawmakers opinions. So we''re in luck because Carrie has a fan base comparable to Taylor Swift and the influence of her as well, so having her speak out in favor does nothing but help influence peoples thinking.
