If they don't want to be the people who actually marry them themselves that is fair enough but they have no right to prevent them from being married by people who are willing to.

They to be fair wouldn't be following their holy book.

I'm under the interpretation that this specifically talking about the Catholic Church and the act of them marrying a gay couple. I believe your argument should be placed on the other side.

Side: No

Sorry, it is too late to change sides now :P

Sorry sir, but you are greatly incorrect, for many peoppe turn to religious institutions (primarily the pastor or priest of the church) for the conduction of their mariage. Therefore if a couple goes to a Catholic Church seeking marriage, and they happen to be gay, it is up to the Church to decide of they wish to commence the wedding.

As I said before being legally married is a matter of state, matter of what you wil have on your ID, Passport etc... We are living in secular world, religious tyranny ended 200 years ago.

I don't give a shit about some retarded ritual done by guy in skirt and pointy hat.

You're asking an organization known for child molestation rings and mass manipulative profiteering if they should permit homosexual marriage? I don't think they have the best judgement to make any decision on behalf of other people. Gay people should be allowed to get married despite what any religious organization thinks, and I wouldn't see why gay men and women would want to get married through a church that even debates whether or not to honor their union.

Side: Yes

in my opininion, the Church should be modernized because I think that in the twenty-first century, homosexual people can be more religious people than heterosexual people.

Side: No

I don't think the Catholic Church should allow gay marriages because a lot of people would disagree. Even if there aren't many references in this religion against homosexual couples, I don't think it would be necessary to change such an ancient tradition, as long as gay marriages are allowed outside the Church.

Side: No

People obiesously don't know what Catholics actually believe in. As a catholic and every other catholic, we believe in traditional marriage which is marriage between a man and women. God created marriage for man and women, not the same sex. DONT GET US WRONG!!! ITS IS OK TO BE GAY. As Catholics, we are against gay marriage because we don't believe it's actually marriage because to us, a marriage has to uphold 2 things: unity of the couple and procreation. Gay marriage can't uphold both of those. So it would be so dumb to let gay people marry if our church if we're against what your doing and we don't believe in it. Like I said, as Catholics we love everyone in clouding gays but we don't like the sin that SOME NOT ALL some gay people commit like sex between the same sex and same sex "marriage". Hate the sin love the sinner.

Are you referring to letting same-sex couples marry in a Catholic Church, or in this country as a whole?

Side: Yes

I do not know what to say, I see that the average Roman Catholic would not want to suggest a person be a homosexual nor encourage a woman to go have an abortion. But the majority of Roman Catholic always join hands with the homosexual community and also with the Pro-Abortion community in the voting booth.

They always vote in a majority with the homosexuals and abortionists and work with them to elect politicians who make Laws to fund all forms of abortion - ( EVEN LATE TERM ABORTION ) and the politicians that the majority of Catholics VOTE into office - - the Liberal Democrat Socialist Politicians who demand that gays receive tax breaks for married union - - Same-Sex Marriages...

Today, The Pope Francis is " COMPARING THE ENTIRE SUBJECT OF ABORTION " -

= : TO TRUMP'S IMMIGRATION POLICY ... https://psmag.com/news/did-pope-francis-just-compare-abortion-to-trumps-immigration-policy

The Pope compares Trump’s position to the same acts of the abortionists. In other words, ( * - - unless Trump opens the borders and allows anyone to come into The USA and allows people who illegally entered the country to stay here – while people are still legally waiting in line to come here – then trump is the same evil as an infant killer and a baby killer. - Does this sound like selective morality ? - especially when the Pope never said a single word about Oboma's abortion policy. ?

Side: No
