Right or wrong, we all have basic rights that guarantee us a free life. No man or government has the right to take that away from us. Don’t let anyone shame you for life decisions you make. Respect is after all, a two way street. You must give it in order to get it. Do the research, ask questions, pray to GOD for the answers, make a choice, and live with the consequences. And don’t waste your time trying to explain your beliefs to those who will never agree with it anyway. Or you could just toss a coin. Whatever you decide to do, your dog will still love you regardless.
