I was raised a Baptist, drink and have gay friends.
I don’t approve of “gay marriage “ as an article of faith.
If the secular givernment wants in on the business of gay marriage, fine.
Hell, they could get into polygamy for all I care.
But, the church shouldn’t be in that business.
Oh, and my friends, who are gay, exclaimed their faux “offense” at my position until I explained it to them.
You wanna get married under the law, fine. However, the 1st amendment provides freedom of religion, which means you are free to choose no religion or a religion that condones your position.
You and I are not free to impose some sanctimonious position that violates the other’s rights, otherwise thise rights are no longer universal.
To this day they agree.
I just don’t want to see the government force churches who don’t want to marry gay people forced to do it. If there are churches willing to do it, so be it.
