I don’t see how same-sex marriage could possibly have any effect on how I believe?

The "church" is being forced to accept the NEW religious beliefs of the religious left who no longer see this to be a sin.

That is a violation of the separation of church and state.

No man should have to bow to their religious beliefs.

Celebrating sin is aposty. We are all sinners, some seek to redefine what is sinful.

We were told that Lawrence v. Texas was strictly about consenting adults in private. Now it is about kids in schools too and in the workplace and in the church and...

After "marriage" comes adoption (when does the child get to consent to being brought into an abnormal relationship?) and insurance coverage. Could a church deny a same sex couple "membership" (not rejecting them from attending church, the doors are always open for sinners) in the church, listing in the members directory, etc? Would there be the same acceptance of publicly proud "swingers" who have wife-swapping parties every month?

I stand corrected, I was thinking about religious beliefs being trampled, not liberties. Personally, I don’t think much about religious liberties, as I just believe in God. I guess I would if someone forced me to join a specific religion.
