That better be a Platform Bed, one that sits directly on the floor and evenly distributes the weight.
A Waterbed would become a Catapult for the other woman.

It’s not a real marriage, so no.

My daughter had a lesbian lay pastor perform her wedding. I didn’t know this until the last minute. I felt uneasy and as far as I was concerned, the wedding didn’t count.

For the same reason, it’s not appropriate for a Christian to attend the wedding of one or both adulterers, without some extraordinary exception supported by Scripture. You would be celebrating what God condemns.

See, now YOU’RE onto the deal, here.

Skip the ceremony (who’d know, right?) and go, uhhh, straight (sry, not sry) to the reception. Get a couple beers in ya before the mob shows up.

I worked in HR for a city in SoCal. One of the Street Maintenance “ladies” and her partner were having a commitment ceremony as same-sex marriages weren’t a thing then. My boss strongly implied (not QUITE a direct order) that all HR employees had to attend. I just laughed, shook my head, and walked away.

Things never were the same for me after that, and I retired a couple years earlier than I’d planned to.

is it proper for Christians to attend a Molech ceremony where babies are sacrificed to the false god? Or attend pagan rituals? Nope- These and gay ‘marriages’ as well are a blatant affront to God- a direct slap in his face- Why woudl a Christian want to even entertain being a part of that?

God does NOT join same sex couples together because He condemns homosexuality, calling it the strongest condemnation word possible- an Abomination!- yet the ceremony states “What God has joined together...” So these preachers that ‘marry’ gay couples are actually mocking God, or at best ignoring God altogether by disobeying God through falsely ‘joining them together in ‘holy’ matrimony’-

They make a mockery of God and His condemnation of homosexuality- it’s a direct spit in his face-

So nope- one shouldn’t attend, and ‘should have’ the courage to say no even if a close relative is caught up i n the abomination of the gay life

I’d go further than just not attending a “wedding” between two such people. I would not generally associate with them socially or in a Christian cultural context. We are told in Scripture to “turn away” from “such as these.” Open, proud homosexuals have reached a level of lifestyle blasphemy that can’t go much lower. They epitomized every condemnable characteristic mentioned in 2 Timothy 3:1-5.

No. Perversion is condemned by God.

Read Romans 1:18-32, especially verse 32. If you believe the Bible is God’s word, obey it.

It’s not hard to figure out what the Putin haters think of this question.

I try really hard not to judge people. That’s for God to do. I have no power over other people, places and things and what these people do. But I can have the power of who I choose to be around and where I choose to go and what to be involved in.

I have never been invited to a same sex wedding. I am guessing most religious people would not marry gay people. I do know some gay people. I avoid the conversations like that.

Catholic moral theology would call something like this a “simulation of a sacrament”. It’s a grave sin to participate in one of those if you do so knowingly. (And it would be nearly impossible in this case to not know.)
