What is a Christian's justification for a legal prohibition of homosexual marriage? @Marc Gravell - Yes it is part of the definition of marriage, at least from a Christian/Catholic perspective. For example, please read vatican.va/archive/ccc_css/archive/catechism/p2s2c3a7.htm |

What is a Christian's justification for a legal prohibition of homosexual marriage? @Marc Gravell, marriage is at the very heart of the matter. Marriage is intended to give a stable place for procreation and raising of children/families. Gay couples by definition cannot pro create without 3rd party help and it is very debatable as to whether they provide a better environment for raising children. Opposite sex marriage is ordered towards children, regardless of whether the couple has them or not. |

What is a Christian's justification for a legal prohibition of homosexual marriage? @Marc Gravell - I would add that many of those things you list are because marriage is generally ordered towards pro-creation and the raising of children. A healthy society needs to replenish itself, so it gives special perks to relationships that can produce offspring, in theory anyways. |

Is confessing to a priest the only way to be forgiven? I disagree here. There is plenty of Biblical evidence one can find for the practice of Confession. |
