People who oppose gay marriage are like Christians who used the Bible to support apartheid and slavery, says bishop (marriages, kids)

Because homosexual behavior is voluntary, as is thought, homosexuality is a voluntary endeavor.

Having sex is voluntary, being gay is an orientation, not a choice. What should we be, celibate just to appease all of you christians?

Act out, you know, have sexual relations.

So, having sex is acting out? How stupid. So when you have straight sex, you are acting out your heterosexuality? BALONEY, total bull.

A good way for you to stay out of my life is to keep your beliefs to yourself and out of law affecting every US citizen. Not everyone is a christian, nor do we want your brand of religion forced on us. Is that so difficult to understand?

A lot of people chose to be celibate, even a lot of gays. It's a matter of self control.

No, but you want your brand of marriage forced on us when marriage has always meant one man and one woman for centuries and centuries. How is that for bullying? Is that so difficult to understand?

Yes. People act on their feelings----or they don't. It's all a choice.

The Anglican "Church", like many others, has left the true teachings of God's Word.

"Damn" being the operable word. He speaks for the lost world that despises God's clear teachings.

I'm pretty sure the anti-gay crowd will not be getting a pat on the back from God come judgement day.

Indeed. It would be hard to justify blatantly disobeying God by saying "We were too busy stopping things we THOUGHT you would be against".

You mean you'll be forced to marry someone of the same sex? I had no idea! Well, that changes everything!
