Old Time Religion and Gay Marriage Issues.

The rush back to old time religion is usually a reaction to confusion and fear, fear of change,fear of new, fear of the future.  Joyce MacMillan  Scotsman 09/03/12

Might be a good idea if we all dropped the coffee,collected the kids, into the car and stopped off at the local house of worship, open the Good Book and found out what exactly is being said there and what exactly the churches are advising or instructing the flock. Or would it? Do we really want our children to be caught up with these kind of issues and start asking us questions. Femme Internationale stand is a No children should not be involved but they already are if someone asks why they have two Daddies or two Mummies and/or ask why does your mummy look like a daddy my mummy looks different. Wonder if the gay community has ever considered this or is it a selfish pursuit of what I want, when I want it and it's who I am and I have a right. The immediate defense and almost intimidation by the gay community aimed at those with different views is at present unacceptable.  Is it a case of revenge is sweet? Society tolerated difference. Lots of individuals outside religious institutions do not accept gay marriage but don't feel they have a right to pass judgement.  Happy Christian's I acknowledge but somethings give them reason to be concerned. Gay Christians? and this is what drives us to seek guidance of those informed and in turn to make an informed choice.
But there is ways of enlightening, the Catholic Church has in it's interpretation of God's expressed will decided to issue leaflets for guidance and instruction I don't think this is aimed at persecution of gay people. They have in their obedience to the Word of God decided to end dialogue. Others have seen this as aggressive persecution.  The Episcopalians have agreed to house the refugees from other religious institutions hopefully to get them to study the reasons why for Christian's this is not God's expressed will.    Now we have been given a free will and the consequences of making wrong decisions can be disastrous so therefore the need for guidelines and the absolute need for all denominations to take their stand on this issue, to stop the fear and confusion existing.
