I think gays should get together and create their own church. You know, there are many different churches, Church of England, Protestant church, catholic church. Why don't they create their own where they can get married in?
Henry VII did it... why don't the gays?
There are thousands in existence. A giant Gay Church in Dallas. In fact the one in Dallas, Cathedral of Hope, is the largest gay church in the world.

King James Version v. New KJV v. American Standard v. New AS; many big parts are completely different. I remember one of the NKJVs took out all sexually orientated pronouns (he/she/his/hers etc.). Not to mention, but I will any way, do you wear clothes of unatural fibers? When your daughter, sister, wife or girlfriend is bleeding from the vagina do you make them stay indoors until they stop? Do you burn their bloody panties when Aunt Flow has packed her bags and went on holiday for three to four weeks? Have you ever earned your Red Wings or even had premarital sex? There are many other things that have been changed about the "Word of God" edited by man that some simply don't recognize. In fact, we're all going to hell according to Leviticus. I know I am.
To me, I've always felt that if you love someone, you marry them. Therefor, marriage is the bond of two people who love each other. Why not let these people wed? I have yet to read or hear a single argument that proves anything but the fear and hatred of those arguing against it. What's wrong with the word being applied solely to a union of to people who Love each other? By disallowing the word "marriage" to be used, as a nation; we are saying outright that
these people are different from
us. I see it as no different from a whites only sign.
