I just wanted to point out if it already hasn't been pointed out that legalizing same sex marriage does not make it more of a sin in GOD's eyes while neither does discriminating against gays make the sin of homosexuality go away. In America, the church and state are supposed to be separate. The same rights that give me the freedom to be a Christian without persecution, give someone else the right to worship how they want to. I do not agree with so many Christians getting into politics and trying to make laws that make America more Christian, even if it benefits me as a Christian. The problem with that is that if the US did become a one religion nation, even if it was Christianity for a while, even a 100 years, eventually things change and what do you do when your veiw isn't whats popular? People try to throw religion into this but its not about religion, its discrimination. I may not agree with same sex marriage, but I also don't believe in alcohol consumption, or stip clubs, or a host of other "sinful behavior" that is legal, but I still recognize that my beliefs should not be a determining factor in legislation. If Christians have a problem with gay people and gay marriage, then they should do more praying, and evangelizing. Didn't Jesus say render to Caeser what is Caeser and to GOD what is GODs?
