ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) - Gay marriage will become legal in New York state after the Republican-led state Senate voted to approve it. Advocates are calling it a historic step as New York stands to become the sixth but by far the largest state to legalize same-sex marriage.

Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo lobbied hard for the bill and has promised to sign it.

The Senate vote is viewed as a major gain in an effort to allow gay marriage nationally.

Here’s the shortest verse which could easily be at this news of the night...

“Jesus wept”......I rather think He’s been doing so over this nation for a very long time now and is soon to be beyond the weeping point to judgement.

I am fearful the riders are preparing to mount their horses....delayed only until the appointed time.

Has any culture in history ever recognized homosexual marriage?

There have been very real fears that religious organizations will be sued with the legalization of homosexual marriage.

This is going to happen no matter what. These people don't just want you to tolerate their deviant lifestyle, they want to force you to accept it.

I’d much rather they go back into their closets. Their PDA’S are sickening and disgusting to say the least...it’s perversion on the street corner and needs to go back inside the privacy of their homes.

When the sun comes up tomorrow...

NY is still broke.

And there are still hundreds of Federal benefits and tax laws that are only available to a man and wife.

But the social engineering and liberal culture control won a victory. Let them party and wake up next to Rosie O’Donnell with a hangover tomorrow.

I don’t want to make this a religious debate or anything, but do not give up hope. Christian influence over our culture may be ebbing right now, but that tide may turn as it has done in the past (Great Awakening and Reformation style).

Has any culture in history ever recognized homosexual marriage? Until recent years?

Sodom and Gomorrah.....God destroyed them with fire and brimstone...we're next.... or as Billy Grahm once said,...

"If God doesn't judge us he's going to have to apologize to Sodom and Gomorrah".
