What are your views on all these states now legalizing gay marriage??
I am against it, but wanted to know how other Christians felt about it.
I don't have anything against gay people, i don't think they are bad people, I just dont believe they should marry.

so far it's CT,VT,IA and MA

Don't be mistaken. I don't know about the rest, but IA didn't legalize it. The people were clear that they didn't want it. Some rogue judges did.

Hey, you missed my home state of California...We marry them here and the liberal mass is happy to do it...I'm totally against this as I see it will add nothing but trouble to the CHURCH down the road...Most pastors will refuse to marry them and lawsuits will follow...

Oh well yes I know the "people" of the states didn't vote for it. People didn't vote it in CT either. It was decided FOR us!

What we need is a good old fashioned revolt. If a place is owned by gays avoid it, If the place employs gays, avoid it. I do not hate the gays but what they are doing is leading this world into a slippery slope that it will not recover from until the Lord steps in.

I agree. Its not one thing, its the multitude of things that keep adding up. Where does it end. Well if we do this, why can't we do that, and if we can do that, why not this too. It's slope we must stop. And it does stop whenever it is put up to a vote to the people.

What makes it so bad is that medical evidence has not been found to prove whether it is a choice or not. So I would prefer to err on the side of God and say it is a choice and no one should get special rights based on sexual choices.
