ART Posted 23 April, 2013 Posted 23 April, 2013 May the wrath of God make itself known on those who've voted Equal Rights Marriage and Adoption tonight here in France. I have always support civil unions and the social rights of gay couples but Marriage is between a man and woman with the aim of producing children. http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2013/apr/23/france-approves-same-sex-marriage
niceandfriendly Posted 24 April, 2013 Posted 24 April, 2013 And he's clearly not a fan of equal rights either. Interesting. I thought the new testament god wasn't as vicious, evil or morally corrupt as the old testament god? Make your frickin' minds up Christians

Joensuu Posted 24 April, 2013 Posted 24 April, 2013 Good on France. Question is did they spontaneous break into song like the Kiwi's did? http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/australiaandthepacific/newzealand/10001204/New-Zealand-parliament-breaks-out-in-song-after-gay-marriage-vote.html
Sheaf Saint Posted 24 April, 2013 Posted 24 April, 2013 The wrath of God? But surely if god made everything then he is responsible for people being homosexual in the first place, so why would he then be angry about them receiving the same civil rights as everybody else? Unless, of course, god didn't make everything and he/she/it is just a figment of human imagination. I am fully in favour of the whole idea of gay marriage mainly because it makes the ultra-religious so angry. The belief that the voting of gay marriage laws somehow translates as oppression of their religious belief is so utterly laughable, these people really need to get over themselves. I saw something on FB last week that some guy has bought a house directly opposite the Westboro Baptist Church and has painted it in the rainbow colours of the LGBT movement. It was brilliant!

Clapham Saint Posted 24 April, 2013 Posted 24 April, 2013 Of course Christians can decide who can get married because they invented it. Before Christianity adult relationships were one big hedonistic free for all.
hypochondriac Posted 24 April, 2013 Posted 24 April, 2013 Ridiculous comment that makes all Christians look mental when in fact it is a stupid minority.
hutch Posted 24 April, 2013 Posted 24 April, 2013 Of course Christians can decide who can get married because they invented it. Before Christianity adult relationships were one big hedonistic free for all. I'm in. I mean out. Or whatever.

I think you will be dissapointed you nutter. Should heterosexual couples who don't plan on producing children also be prevented from marriage?
norwaysaint Posted 24 April, 2013 Posted 24 April, 2013 Of course Christians can decide who can get married because they invented it. Before Christianity adult relationships were one big hedonistic free for all. I don't know if that's supposed to be serious or not. I hope it isn't because it's nonsense. Marriage as a monogamous and binding communion dates back well before Christian times to cultures all over the world. Annoyingly, like festivals at Christmas and Easter times, Christians have started to believe that since it is part of their culture, they own it and started it, when they were just continuing something that was already there and adding a few bits of ceremony, but then again, I expect it was a tongue in cheek comment.

Saint_Pedro Posted 24 April, 2013 Posted 24 April, 2013 ART has got to be the strangest poster on this forum - the sh1t he comes out with is so hilarious, I'm never sure if he's trolling or not
KelvinsRightGlove Posted 24 April, 2013 Posted 24 April, 2013 So men and women who can't have children shouldn't be allowed to marry either? What if they are married, and before they have had a chance to have kids are then unable to? Should the marriage be annulled?

Anything good is God, anything bad/disliked/frowned upon is because of Satan intervening.
dubai_phil Posted 24 April, 2013 Posted 24 April, 2013 Wellllllllllll..... He has a point. Why should (for example a woman) be penalised by Christian Religion and Law in certain countries because she had the misfortune in life to fall in love with a man who made a mistake in his life by marrying very young and is subsequently divorced? A Catholic girl is Excommunicated which then brings issues relating to her status as a God Parent in her country (let alone unable to Wed in a Church in her country) Laws are being passed that allows same sex marriages (in a Church) but "Proper" old fashioned marriages are discriminated against. Me I don't give a damn about Gay Marriage or Marrying in a Council Office, but it IS bloody unfair on a Woman who may have dreamt of a Church Wedding since she was a toddler. Everyone equal or none equal. This is just a bandwagon vote winner and it is all the more Bull**** for that. Rant over
Manuel Posted 24 April, 2013 Posted 24 April, 2013 God can wrath as much as he likes for all I care. Nothing will happen.
sussexsaint Posted 24 April, 2013 Posted 24 April, 2013 I wasn't married in a church, does this mean I'm not married?

The Catholic Church discriminating against divorced women has nothing to do with a state (which is secular) passing a law permitting "gay marriage". I'd imagine the Catholic Church in France will continue to discriminate against Gays just as they will against divorcees.
Ken Tone Posted 24 April, 2013 Posted 24 April, 2013 I'm in. I mean out. Or whatever. What a strange place for you to choose to come out in.
Bananaman Posted 24 April, 2013 Posted 24 April, 2013 for anyone opposed to gay marriage, my suggestion would be; don't marry a gay
Window Cleaner Posted 24 April, 2013 Posted 24 April, 2013 for anyone opposed to gay marriage, my suggestion would be; don't marry a gay certainly not, it would only lead to earthquakes in Iran.
