Most Anne Arundel Community College students are in support of gay marriage according to a recent campus survey.
"I'm a Christian and I believe that God created Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve." said nursing student Megan McConnon
Gay marriage in the State of Maryland has become a very hot topic as of late due to the voting in the House and the Senate on the same sex marriage. This bill has been the topic of conversation for over a year in Annapolis. The saga continues as the Senate voted the bill through 25:22 last thursday. Although the law is not even close to coming into effect because of anti gay lawmakers trying to force a referendum, although they would need 55,736 signatures to do so.
The vote among AACC students also favored in support of gay marriage, 4:2. Tiffany Yang said that she thinks everyone has the right to believe what they want to believe, and if that belief is to marry a partner of the same sex, why should a law stop them from being happy?
Art Education student Rebekah Wiskey had a different feeling on the issue. Because of her biblical beliefs, she does not support gay marriage, and believes that a referendum would be the best and most fair way to decide on the law.
