It’s astounding to me that even people who have well-established church doctrine to use as cover, if they’re too fearful to use their own Biblical principles for their reason, still cave to the sodomite agenda out of fear. The Catholic Church does not sanction sodomite “marriage”, you would think that Rubio, as a Catholic in presumed good standing, would at least use centuries-old church doctrine as a cover if he’s too afraid to just stand on Biblical principle on his own.
...I’d have to talk it over with the wife.
Sure we’re opposed to that ‘openly’, in your face, sinful relationship and detest to homosexual oppression targeted against Christians.
But rhetorically speaking wouldn’t we have to be a close friend/relative to be invited to a gay wedding?
That changes everything.
imo the fact that this BS becomes a campaign issue is the EPIC FAIL of our current state of affairs.
I’m waiting for one candidate who has the guts to answer this simply as:
“There would be no ‘marriage’ to attend. There is no such thing as homosexual ‘marriage.’ “
I won’t hold my breath, but that would be the best answer to hear.
Very true. You would have to be close family or friends to be invited to a homosexual wedding in the first place.
As the article correctly states, any “marriage” that takes place after a divorce is not a marriage in the true and traditional sense, anymore that a union between two people of the same gender/sex. Unfortunately for our society divorce and subsequent “remarriage,” pushed by the onslaught of No-Fault Divorce, paved the way for the eventual and further desecration of marriage. I realize that sometimes the marital relationship may seem untenable, but those who do get a divorce and then go on to get “married” to someone else (regardless of their gender) need to take a look in the mirror and realize that they too are part of the problem.
The correct terminology should be “homosexual fake marriage”.
It’s not gay. It isn’t real. And it certainly has nothing to do with the union of one man and one woman.
I’m still curious if Cruz would attend.
A lot of supporters said he answered that question, maybe they can tell us.
A couple I know dealt with this issue a couple of years back when her step sister was getting “married” to another lesbo. This couple is moderately liberal, so it was interesting to watch their deliberations: 1) No way they were taking their children around the perverts, 2) They felt bad that nobody from their family would be attending, 3) Felt some obligation to go, since they felt some happiness that the step sister’s life had become more settled, 4) Ultimately ended up not going because they didn’t want to participate in a pretend “wedding” between two women, 5) Sent a gift.
That is what I say, and wonder why more intelligent people have not stated so. A man and a woman united is seen as marriage and I expect that crosses most all 'religions' and 'cultures'.
‘Ultimately ended up not going because they didn’t want to participate in a pretend “wedding” between two women,’
Interesting that moderately liberal people would take that option while so many alleged so-called “conservatives” seem to be doing the opposite.
Yeah, you’d have to be close to the individual(s) who were homosexual to be invited. the less closely related or friend, less likely the invitation will be given.
Probably a good way to handle it. RSVP I presume.
“you would have to be close family or friends to be invited to a homosexual wedding in the first place.”
Not necessarily. It could be someone from the office who’s inviting everyone from work to come to his/her gay “wedding.” Or neighbors who are inviting the whole neighborhood. Maybe someone you went to school with who you didn’t know then was gay. Maybe the ex-husband or ex-wife of a straight couple you were friends with.
If I were invited to the gay wedding of a cousin, I'd go, but I'd probably sit with the cousin's elderly parents and commiserate over drinks.
IT really depends. I live quite a ways away from anyone I knew in HS or College, and it would be a legitimate excuse to not attend in person if I have to travel thousands of miles to get there, combined with not being very close to them.
“Sorry, I can’t go. That sort of thing is damned by the God I serve, and if I go, I’ll be damned by God also.”
‘Not necessarily. It could be someone from the office who’s inviting everyone from work to come to his/her gay “wedding.”’
That scenario really bothers me. One’s co-workers are just that, i.e., co-workers. Of course, friendships can develop in the work place but I find some folks just have no boundaries and tend to presume about others who are just there for a paycheck and nothing more.
How absurd.
Does anyone who opposes homosexual "marriages" seriously believe that, if a state says it's OK, that two men or two women can actually marry each other?
Can a state define that water is no longer wet? Is it up to states whether or not fire burns, or whether or not water freezes at 32F?
I don’t know how I’d handle an invitation to a ‘gay wedding.’ Pretty sure I’d figure out a way to decline. I can only imagine someone related inviting us, and I don’t know anyone in either of our families who’s gay; our friendship circles don’t include any openly gay folks.
We didn’t have any of h.s. or college friends at our wedding. Just the way it worked out. We were LONG out of school, the wedding was on a holiday (New Year’s Eve), and we just didn’t send invitations to anyone who’d have to travel.
Our daughter and her friends travel across the country and halfway around the globe to attend friends’ weddings. It’s a totally different world. And, you can bet these millennials wouldn’t hesitate for one second to attend a ‘gay wedding.’
