gay marriage

The ultimate expression of love between two people who love each other under a religious system.

Often thought as oximoronic under some religions, and compared to other such unworldly love (ie. bestiality). Often ignored is the fact that humans are not mere animals (at least according to the same religions).

Lucy and Victoria have followed the word of God on a daily basis. However, because they want to express their love under the very system they charish, they shall be sent to Hell.

gay marriage

Something that the government cannot administer under Constitutional law, neither can they administer opposite-sex marriages.

Why doesn't anybody realize that the US government administering any type of marriage, (be it gay marriage or not) a traditionally *religious* institution, violates separation of church and state?

gay marriage

The ability of two people in the US to enjoy certain benefits alotted to them for BS religious reasons. Marriage is unconstitutional, but what's even worse than that is banning only gays from it for religiosu reasons. You know where else gays can't get married? Nigeria, the Phillipines, Iran, places full of religious nuts. Oh, and just to be sure, Christianity is completely anti-gay. It comes from the New Testament, from Paul. He says they deserves to die, and compares them to all the worst sins of the world (also says non-believers and idolaters need to die, too, just to be fair). Romans 1:18-32

I wonder what the apostle Paul would say about gay marriage...
18
The wrath of God is indeed being revealed from heaven against every impiety and wickedness of those who suppress the truth by their wickedness.
19
For what can be known about God is evident to them, because God made it evident to them.
20
Ever since the creation of the world, his invisible attributes of eternal power and divinity have been able to be understood and perceived in what he has made. As a result, they have no excuse;
21
for although they knew God they did not accord him glory as God or give him thanks. Instead, they became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless minds were darkened.
22
While claiming to be wise, they became fools
23
and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for the likeness of an image of mortal man or of birds or of four-legged animals or of snakes.
24
Therefore, God handed them over to impurity through the lusts of their hearts 15 for the mutual degradation of their bodies.
25
They exchanged the truth of God for a lie and revered and worshiped the creature rather than the creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.
26
Therefore, God handed them over to degrading passions. Their females exchanged natural relations for unnatural,
27
and the males likewise gave up natural relations with females and burned with lust for one another. Males did shameful things with males and thus received in their own persons the due penalty for their perversity.
28
And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God handed them over to their undiscerning mind to do what is improper.
29
They are filled with every form of wickedness, evil, greed, and malice; full of envy, murder, rivalry, treachery, and spite. They are gossips
30
and scandalmongers and they hate God. They are insolent, haughty, boastful, ingenious in their wickedness, and rebellious toward their parents.
31
They are senseless, faithless, heartless, ruthless.
32
Although they know the just decree of God that all who practice such things deserve death, they not only do them but give approval to those who practice them.
