Speaking of his faith, Mr. Carter said in his career as a politician he never ran across "any really serious conflicts between my political obligations and my religious faith."
Asked about gay marriage, he replied that it is "no problem with me. I think everybody should have a right to get married regardless of their sex."
Regarding whether he thinks Jesus would approve of gay marriage, Carter replied "I don’t have any verse in Scripture," but added, "I believe that Jesus would approve of gay marriage."
"I think Jesus would encourage any love affair if it was honest and sincere and was not damaging to anyone else and I don't see that gay marriage damages anyone else," he said.

The path to wickedness and evil is a wide heavily traveled path. Liberals can’t handle 10 commandments...they couldn’t abide by one commandment. Good is evil, right is wrong, up is down, left is right...
We know Jimmy didn’t mean it that way, but that’s very true. Many have done just that, and homosexual actors do it all the time - or used to when they cared about their rep...but those marriages are also disasters.
Lucifer conquers another Democrat.
They are twisted enough to believe, or pretend to beleve, that it’s their “right” to live lives of unmitigated perversity, and dump the consequences downstream.
“I think everybody should have a right to get married regardless of their sex.”
Uh, Jimmah, I believe that to have been the case since time immemorial: women and men are not only allowed, but encouraged, to marry each other, you clueless idiot!!
He believes in a different Jesus than the one I know from the Bible
Sadly there are Christians who would believe that and think the Democrat party is the right party for Christians. No Christians should ever vote Democrat!
For me, Jimmah Carter will always be the worst president ever, even after eight years of Obama. Because he has spent the last thirty seven years after his ouster from office badmouthing his Republican successors and encouraging the enemies of the U.S. and Israel.
Carter should be deported either to Gaza or Cuba.
Says the man who brought us Islamic terrorism because he didn’t get his bribe.
Insane, Jimmy........
Pope Jimmuh speaks.
Didn’t Jesus talk about “the law” a lot? Yeah, I just checked. He did. And he seemed to take it very seriously. So then what’s that have to say about gays and abortion?
Jimmah, get back in the house and go to bed.......don’t talk.........please
It won’t be long before Jesus will straighten Jimmy out about homosexuality. Oh, and false teachers.
I hope he repents, I don’t wish Hell on anyone. Or he may be a Christian already and has wondered back over the line ever since I can remember. It’s not up to me.
Yup- exactly- I’m not suggestion that some irresponsible heteros don’t engage in massive promiscuity- but the rate of homosexual promiscuity far outweighs that of hetero- and it is, as i said, a damnable liberal lie that gay people ‘don’t hurt anyone else’- Their whole destructive abominable lifestyle puts a massive financial burden on society- and as you stated- they feel entitled to receive that money because they feel as though they are a protected class with special privileges- and that society owes them- Jimmah Carter has bought into their lie hook line and sinker-
This man wrapped it all up in his mixed up mind and passing his “knowledge” on to others. He has lost any discernment and evidently not read the Bible.
Jimmy has always been, first and foremost, a con man. He started off as a typical Dixiecrat segregationist who played the black card to whip up white racial animosity to get elected. You can be damn sure he didn’t support gay marriage back then in the late 60s/early 70s. Then he was the New Southern Democrat who took a technical approach to government. Then he rode the Evangelical wave of the mid to late 1970s as the first “Born Again Christian” president. You can be damn sure he didn’t support gay marriage then either. Now he does.
Doubt it.
I was a kid during the Carter years. I remember Carter as a folksy, likeable guy. “Peanut Farmer” always made me laugh. The nightly news was usually not very happy but Saturday Night Live was funny. A term that often comes up concerning the Carter Administration and America in the late 70’s is malaise. The good news is that this brought us Reagan in ‘80 and the rest is history. President Ronald Reagan shaped who I am as a Conservative today. I hope President Trump is making this same impact on the subsequent generations.
During his Presidency Carter fell for the lefty lie that we couldn’t do anything about high oil prices so we needed to put on more sweaters in the winter.
Now he has fallen for another lefty lie and he may need more than sweaters to help him now...
