Darn right the bible forbids gay relationships. Reverence Leviticus, 20:13: If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood [shall be] upon them.

And don't commit adultery: Lev 20:10 And the man that committeth adultery with [another] man's wife, [even he] that committeth adultery with his neighbour's wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.

And don't have sex with your mom: Lev 20:11And the man that lieth with his father's wife hath uncovered his father's nakedness: both of them shall surely be put to death; their blood [shall be] upon them.

And don't have sex with your son's wife: Lev 20:12 And if a man lie with his daughter in law, both of them shall surely be put to death: they have wrought confusion; their blood [shall be] upon them.

I hate Morford, but he is right that the bible can be used to condemn just about anything. I personally am acquainted with two gay couples who have together for far, far longer than any of my hetero married friends. With that kind of devotion I think they have earned the right to be recognized by the government (inasmuch as the government is in the business of recognizing couples).

Using the bible to suggest a basis for legislation is just wrong.

People can misinterpret anything they wish to.

Quoting the Bible is for believers. For the rest, it is obvious that homosexuality is the death of any society into which it enters. Society is about people giving of themselves as individuals for the greater good. Homosexuality is the ultimate expression of narcissism. It never has been able to support a society (and it has been tried before) and it never will.

Me is the enemy of us. Homosexuality is the ultimate in me. Heterosexual marriage (as it should be) is the ultimate in us. That is why no society without a strong working family foundation can stand.

But don't blame the queers. It's the straights who started this self-destructive trip in making marriage a selfish institution rather than the selfless one it was designed to be.

Shalom.

the govt has no business recognizing or sactioning marriages, period end of discussion.

it is a matter between a couple, their Church, their God, and their insurance company/companies.
