Gay marriages in the church??

Why not gays? (that is, assuming being gay is actually a sin or abomination) You can repent for being an adulterer.. Gays " getting married" is them accepting their sin as a way of life, and seeing nothing wrong with it..

Mannnnn I can't thank you enough

I don't care whats funny to you... At the end of the day they will be judged by God.... before then I will let my fellow brothers and sisters know that homosexuality is a sin.. point blank period.. They are being gay on purpose... by sleeping with the same sex... If they're struggling.. say that.. Don't spin it around and front that you were born that way, therefore you should accept that God made you gay..

This is the most ridiculous, homophobic statement in this thread, and it's sad that other homophobes are probably going to cosign it. Please take a biology class to understand what sexual orientation is. It is a medical matter, not a religious one.

So if someone is ok with explaining to God on judgement day why they lived out their life as a homosexual then I'm ok with that too. I just don't understand how someone could really and truly believe in an abrahamic God(and the bible/quran/etc), and still be a homosexual. I would say that they are either not very strong in their faith, or they are doing this to spite the church. This. If they want to get married…Ok. But honestly the Bible called homosexuality out as an abomination. There's no dancing around that. But I don't have a hierarchy of sins. If the Bible says not to do something, you don't do it. That being said there are a lot of adulterers, thieves, and those who don't treat their neighbors very well that not only belong to churches, but run the churches. Let them get married. I'm not the one that has to answer to God at the end of it all.

.. I'm starting to develop the latter attitude about gay marriage period.

And on that note have a wonderful day today guys. :)

Phobia of gays? Not I, have people in my life who choose that lifestyle.. I don't love them less than the next person..
You don't know me , so don't call me out of my name...
You also rejected the Lord and Christ, so I wouldn't expect you to understand

a church or wherever you go to praise...
is supposed to be a place.. where you feel welcomed and wanted.

if this place isn't allowing you to be married.. they damn sure dont want or welcome you there.. so why are you there? there are tons of churches  out there that are willing to marry you and welcome you.
Let those other places.... keep their hate filled church to themselves.
if thats their "religion" let them have it.

the equivalent of this to me.. would be a black family fighting for the right to praise in a church run by the KKK or some equally hateful white supremacist group.
Like cut your losses and go somewhere where you are loved.

There was a thread recently about some couple in Mississippi not being allowed to marry in a church b/c they were black. Why would you even want to start one of the most beautiful/powerful unions that you can have-- somewhere where they think so basic?????
couldn't be me.
