interesting. will this coalition in turn be blasted as 'homophobes' by our resident leftists?

A coalition of 34,000 black churches is blasting President Barack Obama's decision to stop defending the federal law that bans recognition of gay marriage.
The Justice Department announced Wednesday that, at Obama's direction, it would not defend the constitutionality of the Defense of Marriage Act in a court case where it's being challenged.

As a result, Evans says black churches must "reassess their extraordinary support for him."

I'm still waiting on someone to quote a gospel verse in which Jesus teaches anything about homosexuality let alone, gay marriage.

Quote:
Church group blasts Obama for abandoning Defense of Marriage Act "The Rev. Anthony Evans, who heads the National Black Church Initiative, says Obama "has violated the Christian faith" by failing to uphold Jesus' teaching that marriage is between a man and a woman."
