Tyra why do you avoid the subject at hand. That mother didn't say that she didn't want her daughter in her life, she said that she wouldn't honor that union. God made us to be fruitful and multiply. Two women can't multipy anything. Think about child birth and pregnancy......and how the whole thing is such an amazing act of God. You are in denial Tyra. It's not that we don't love the people but that mother going to that wedding would show that she supports that union. Tyra you know deep down you don't believe like that.Deep down a lesbian or a homosexual really don't want to be that way. I have heard from them myself. It's a lifestyle that they choose not the normal. This world is so backward that they really are starting to believe that same sex should be together. No other life form mates with the same sex. But because we have so much freedom that we try to make anything fit. It's not right Tyra and you know it. We don't choose to be straight it's how human life is made everyday.

Dear Tyra, I was watching your show today on gay marriages; and the mother who would not go to her daughters wedding. You asked her why this sin is different from other ones. I just wanted to say that there is a difference between certain sins. Their are sins that lead to death(Hell) and there are sins that do not. homosexuality is one of the sins that those "practcing such things, will not in herit the kingdom. ALL of us are sinners, but some sins lead to death forever and some do not. I was glad to hear that you were raised in church, however I do beleive that "Church" is a lot of where all the confusion comes from. I've been reading the bible since I was nine years old, and I have been to a lot of different churches, But I always pray for the Holy spirit to teach me and I pray and talk talk talk, girl. all the time about the God thing. God bless you and the family that was on.

Tyra, when you compared other sins where mothers are supportive of their children you failed to recognize that the parent was supportive AFTER the sin had been committed! Would I show up while my son murdered someone?? Should I be invited to his drug deals? A parent's job is to guide his or her child in the direction they believe to be right. That doesn't stop just because the child is grown. To ask the mother to set aside her beliefs for "just one day" is uncalled for. I was appalled. This country is falling morally apart because people have allowed themselves to be talked into setting aside their beliefs. I support the mother. Julianna is entitled to live her life as she chooses and I hope she is indeed happy, but by the same token, so are her parents. Good luck to all.

GOOD LUCK TO MISS TYRA BANKS FOREVER AND EVER I WANNA WISH YOU THE BEST FOREVER AND EVER MISS TYRA BANKS THE BEST TOP MODEL LOVE MAX

SPEACIAL THANKS TO MISS TYRA BANKS,MAYU GOD BLESS HER SHOWS FOREVER AND EVER LOVE MAX

Tyra you are wrong for trying to push your beliefs on someone else. You bring the mother on the show and you put all this weight and pressure for her to change her mindset. She can still love her daughter without going to her gay wedding. what ever happened to unbiased journalism. Tyra you fail to realize that everyone has the right to their own beliefs. It is so sad that u would push a mother to compromise her belief system just to make yourself feel good. REPENT Tyra. GOD is watching!!!

I can relate to these experiences..I believe homosexuality is a sin, however my older sister is a married lesbian and she was so hurt I choose not to come to her wedding that we haven't talked in over three years and I do believe it will end up to be even longer then that. There are many sins that many people commit and yes nobody is perfect and everybody does sin but Genesis 1 : 28 talks about God creating the first human couple (Man and Woman) and telling to the "Be fruitful and become many and fill the earth and subdue it" how is it possible to FILL the earth if everyone was gay? Why would God change his purpose for us as human beings? 1 Corinthians 6 : 9, 10 talks about those who will not inherit Gods kingdom if they choose to live a life of greed, drunkness, adulterers and yes even homosexuality. If there are people out there who really do want to live by Gods standards and do what is RIGHT in HIS eyes then verse 11 of that same passage comes into place by saying "and yet that is what some of you WERE!!..." so we all have the chance to make changes in our lives. I do not understand the longing some men and women have for a same sex partner in life and I never will but I strongly believe that living by Bible principles can make ANY person happier. Matthew 5 : 3 reminds us that those who are conscious of there spiritual need will be HAPPY! We all have our beliefs even homosexuals and we can all strongly choose to live by them...if there are people who don't believe in homosexuailty...LET THEM!! why be pressured into attending weddings or gay

Well, I don't agree with homosexuals and I am more than 100 percent convinced that people are not born gay (if they were, why would God have created the 1st couple straight?) Even though I don't agree with the gay life style, I do think it's wrong for people to say they're going to hell. It is not anyone's place 2 judge but God's.

Tyra, how dare you judge that mother about what she believes! You should inquire about how she feels b/c it is your job but you have gone so far as to try to make her feel guilty. And for the record YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW SHE FEELS!!!!! Call me when you have a baby.The daughter can do what ever she wants and the the mother has the right to feel the way she feel. That is the beauty of God...he gives us all free will.

Tyra, you asked about mothers who visit their children in jail and the difference with going to a child's gay wedding. The problem is that you are equating a result with an action. Were those mothers visiting jail invited to the sin? "Gee, mom I sure hope you can come to the murder I'm doing today" Doesn't happen! How would our justice system regard a person who was informed of a pending crime and then went along to watch? As an accomplice. So a person of faith who believes homosexuality to be a sin to attend a gay wedding would then be an accomplice to and giving approval to that sin. To a person who believes the Bible as "All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness" (2 Tim 3:16) homosexuality is a sin. Not as a vague 'belief' but as written in the Word of God. "Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God." (1 Cor 6:9-10) It is possible to love a child unconditionally AND to refuse to participate in their sin with them.

From my point of view i think this is horible, im bi and i know that if i ended up wanting to spend my life with a women id want my family to support me the same as if i was with a man. When people start bringing other thins like religion into sexuality there missing the consepte its two very different things.

The question on the show that got me was why did the mother hold onto that particular sin? I know why she said her daughter would go to hell but why do people, even I, hold onto that sin? I admit if I were in the mother's shoes I would have felt the same way and here's why: in 1 Corinthians 6:9-10, the Bible says the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God. Homosexuality is a wicked sin and it is a chosen way of life. God does not create you as a homosexual, he created you in his image. Homosexuality is a deviation of his image. The mom doesn't want to see her daughter falling into this way of life because if her daughter doen't repent of this way of life then she will not go to heaven. In Romans the Bible says "all have sinned and fallen short of the Glory of God." If you repent of those sins God will forgive you, but when you repent of your sins you are turning your back to those sins. You have to try not to go back to them. I think this is why the mother didn't want to go to the wedding. Another reason that i could understand why the mother wouldn't want to go the the wedding is because a wedding is like a stamp of approval by God saying that he approves of this relationship. Anything other than a wedding between a man and a woman would be un-biblical. Satan is the father of all lies, and believing that this wedding is approved of by God is a lie. In order for the mother to go to this wedding, even though she doesn't approve of it, she would have to turn her back on God's

This is my second post this morning. I feel that after reading some of the other comments I needed to comment again. Living the life we (homosexuals) lead is not something we always decide to do. I believe that in life we have the free will to decide to do whatever we want. But in my heart and soul I believe that living the life I live now is something I could not run away from, or pretend wasn't there. Some people look at us (homosexuals) in disgust because we choose to live a life happy and full of life. Close friends of mine have taken their lives because of this fight (gay vs. straight). They couldn't be happy either way. Being straight was saying that they are happy being with someone they don't honestly love. Being gay means going to against society, beliefs, family, friends. It became too much. They felt everyone was against them no matter what they did. The mother in this show has every right not to support or accept the relationship (I have no right to tell her how to live), BUT I do believe that every mother should be there for their child. Losing a child is never something I want to happen to me. Some families are torn apart because of the lifestyle some want to live. None of us have any right to tell people how to live, even if it is your own child. You may want to protect them, but by hindering them from happiness it just pushes them farther away from you. Go home tonight, tell your child you love them no matter what. It is hard to sit here and read some of these comments that say that they side with the mother. I am not going to

I agree with the mother. One can accept and love their children without participating in their lifestyle. You pointed out that family will visit a murderer in jail --- but they did not participate in, or support the murder. Her parents can still love her as they do now and continue to love her after the wedding --- because they do not participate in or support the wedding does not mean they love their child any less. They should not be "BULLIED" into compromising their position of what they feel as right. THis is the problem I believe exists in this society -- those who disagree with the gay lifestyle should not be bullied into supporting, participating or being involved in their lifestyle. It is one's decision if they do not want to be in an environment that compromises their beliefs and no one should lay guilt trips on them to force them to do differently.
