Gay Marriage and the Church

[kellychaos]

A legal union of same sex persons really has nothing to do with the church. The "laws" created by the government define what is legal and the church does not. It's really that simple. The only reason for the "stink" is that the church and the combined force of all it's congregations represent a strong lobby. This lobby equates "legal unions" with marriage when, actually, they are not the same. Again, the various churches act as if they invented marriage and; therefore, they have the right to define what "marriage" IS for everyone else. Again, they did not. I'm sure that the idea of lifelong mates began long before the marriage label was slapped onto it.
