When we talk about marriage based on the tradition that we had, we must of course condemn it. But just recently, it came to a reality that such a situation is prevalent. And in fact, lots of areas in our community accept it.
In my view, it is always not the right way to get married as man is only for woman and vice versa. And it's foolishness to go for the same gender.
But it is not my jurisdiction to take away if that makes up one's happiness. Everybody is free to be provided with happiness. We are just human.
Though we are trying to condemn it, it is still prevalent and i dont wanna be entered into the hall of shame...lol
Bottomline of this, let's be currently active and accept it.

yeah..you're right but its opposite to what is written in the Bible..what God said..."..go and multiply.." how can they multiply in their own capacity? How can they participate in God's word?

I respect your opinion seabreeze but they said it's their right (human right) to marry whom they loved.

I believe that civil marriage should be legal to any two consenting adults of any gender. However, I don't believe that the State should make any church marry people they don't accept. So it should be up to the church to decide what kind of people they will perform marriages for.
The Church and State in the U.S. are supposed to be separate. Gay and lesbian couples should have the same civil rights as any other adult couple. The pay the same taxes, they vote, they are good citizens, they are more like everyone else than you might think.
Civil marriage is about civil law. Church marriage should be about their own beliefs/laws. Not every church rejects the life-commitments of same-gender couples.

I don't have a problem with the gay concept itself, but I believe that they shouldn't be married. The bible states that marriage is a union meant for a man and a woman, same with making love. It also says that being gay is a sin. (Don't get me wrong, I don't discriminate against them.) I also don't mind if they adopt children, but I don't like the idea of surrogacy for them. These are just my opinions.
