I like that one. Are there any specifically saying that gay marriage is a no no?

Well as you pointed out there are condemnations on homosexuality so I offered those. If homosexuality is condemned then logically gay marriage is condemned.

I believe so, it doesn't say man and man or women and women.

Good point Robin, since the Bible clearly teaches homosexuality is a sin, then gay marriages are wrong.

but the this thread as specifically stated in the original post isn't debating that.

the original posted asked for scripture that backs up gay marriage. I stated it isn't there

.. just like there is nothing that says "gay marriage is bad"..

to which I then stated so the only argument is to point out and refute the condemnations by those who don't understand what love is..

i thought I was pretty clear.

So for clarity purposes I think everyone can agree there are no scripture passages that explicitly outlaw or condone gay marriage..

surely this is something that everyone can agree on..

so two elderly 80 yr old women who never have any intention of having sex with each other..

they can't be married..

why? I thought .. I mean maybe I'm wrong but I thought it wasn't the "being gay" part that was wrong.. I thought it was the engaging in sexual acts part that was wrong..

now I'm all confused..
