They are offering this new marriage right for gay, two men, OK, lesbian, two women, OK and bisexual? would that be two men and one women or 2 women and one man or just what? Could it be more then three people if each individual wanted both a husband and a wife??? inquiring minds want to know?

Do you Heather and Bill take this woman, Wilma as your Husband and or wife? Do you Wilma take Heather as your Wife? Do you Wilma take Bill as your Husband? No you want Bill as your wife, you Wilma, are the Husband? ???

Homosexual activists infiltrated the Episcopal Church years ago to push this agenda.

Susan Russell, Louie Crew, Jan Nunley, Gene Robinson, and all the rest have been working tirelessly for this. Families have fled and the whole place is on life support.

Ok! They didn’t approve gay marriage in the National Cathedral!!!!!! It’s all a rouse. Protestants are strictly observing God’s laws.

Does that make you happy now?

Change the bible? Gods word endures forever. We do not add or change it. That would go against Gods word.

They have a beautiful building. I’m glad I visited back when it was still a church.

>>DC is truly becoming a hub of abject evil in so many ways.<<

Our nation was founded by folks with a devine inspiration and guidance from Almighty God.

He won’t be mocked. This is spitting in HIS face.

The Episcopal church will not marry a man and woman if they’ve been divorced...I think less than 3 years.

They will ordain an openly homosexual man,living with his gay lover after he left his wife and kids for the homosexual relationship.

Nothing and nobody in the District of Corruption is as ‘prominent’ or important as they like to think they are.

as I have been told by one who should know - very, very few Episcopal Churches in the nation have embraced this provisional authority to do gay marriages. The few that do are in urban areas and have been infested by gays over the past 20-30 years. (like termites gnawing away at the foundation - ditto for colleges, universities and govenment)
