Massachusettes has had gay marriage for a few years now, and I see no god has sent a hurricane or anything to punich its residents. And I believe MA has one of, if not the lowest heterosexual divorce rates in the country, so gay marriage surely isn't destroying hetero marriage there. Get a grip!
There is only one God and he only approves of traditional marriage (one man & one woman).

As for Massachusettes, a few years is only a brief moment in God's time.

I've specified in my will and life insurance that the only family to receive anything I have is my partner and our children. Luckily the rest of my family should be long gone and dead by the time I die, so probably not an issue. But for the horrible things my parents have said to me, I don't want them to get a penny of what I have.
That is tragic. Good for you on the action that you took, your family doesn't deserve you.

Why do you feel you should have got money, my wifes parents didn't give her money when a relitive left them some and she didn't care, thats more of a greed thing than anything else.

There is only ONE GOD. You have made-up your own pagan god whom you worship, but it is NOT the true God.

You are a very angry, mean and hateful person. Yesterday you mocked the tornado victims. Today you mock God.

It is quite clear who you serve. Yourself, along with a false god that promotes evil and vile behavior and language. That god is called Satan.

One can be a bigot against a person of another race. But one cannot be a "bigot" against an abnormal lifestyle.
