Marriage gay now legal in all of USA.

I wonder what will happen now to churches that don't believe in this?

What will happen to them? Get closed down? Fine?

probably gay couples wont get married in churches. but i cant see the problem with letting them be married there. it shouldnt be the church's concern if people are gay, just encourage fidelity. i dont recall anything in the gospels opposing gay relations (i could be wrong)

Of course they will want to married at a church!

Check this out.

Not from a church but from a couple:

Alliance Defending Freedom and one of its allied attorneys filed their opening brief Thursday in an appeal of a New York State Division of Human Rights decision against the owners of an upstate farm.

The agency ruled that Cynthia and Robert Gifford were guilty of "sexual orientation discrimination" for declining to host and coordinate a same-sex ceremony on their property. As punishment, the government fined them $10,000 plus $3,000 in damages and ordered them to implement staff re-education training classes that teach the state's viewpoint on marriage.

"All Americans should be free to live and work according to their beliefs," said ADF Senior Counsel Byron Babione. "Our government was formed to be freedom's greatest protector, not its greatest threat. In this case, however, the government is coming after both this couple's freedom and their ability to make a living."

This is the beginning.

There clearly is. And that's why they won't be marrying in churches.

I don't think so , its mentioned in the ot , and by church writers in history , but nothing directly quoted from jesus as far as I know. I don't know why they treat it so seriously

Jesus had many other problems to deal with ?

But seriously if it's in the Bible, they take it seriously, regardless of who said it.

Only because it suits their intolerance and insecurity, it's in the same section as noting eating pork , not cutting you're beard and countless other things they probably haven't even read.

Your confusing ceremonial law vs morale law.

wow, not a single post about terrorist attacks in France, Tunis and Kuwait...

Sometimes, people rather talk about what is good in the world as opposed to the what is wrong. There is so much focus on the wrong that sometimes people need to take a break.

It is a monumentous day. 380,000,000 people all have the exact right and freedom to express their love for whomever they love.

Sadly there's so much terrorist attacks these days, that it has become normal news. :( So some happy news for former scrutinized people for a change :)

Yeah, I can understand that, but I just can't ignore such tragedies...
