Why do Christians think it is their business to tell gay people they can't marry?

I only read fiction that is enjoyable to read, something with a plot, not sick dark sadistic barbaric collection of totally irrational and unbelievable ignorance.

Why don't you pick-up and read some books on science, or about caring for your fellow man instead a book that teaches you to hate anyone that dare to be different than you.

Christianity is primarily a study of new testimonial scripture..with some lose connections made by others too the Old Testament.

There is no reference to marriage or the condoning of marriage in the NT...other than Christ attending weddings..I really don't believe that Christ thought marriage was even needed in society. He did believe in angelic love between a man and woman..as for gay love..there is no mention of him condemning same sex love...BUT he did not approve of prostitution or sodomy..."They will not be given or taken in marriage- for they will be like the angels"....

The reference in the Old Testament was not about homosexuality..."Don't be a straight guy and get in bed with a man an pretend he is a woman" - to para phrase...Homosexuality does not mean sex...it means to love someone of the same sex..Christians are not supposed to sodomize their wives or are they to sodomize other men...There painted in the Last Supper is a man that liked to recline on the chest of Jesus.. He was called "The man who loved Christ" - He was probably what we call today gay...The difference is- today we sexualize gays- Jesus did not have intimate sexual relations with males.. His private residence was with Martha and her sister... He lived in that home- I will suggest that Christ may have been a husband......and what is wrong with that- my Christian friends?
