"Though sodomy is against God's law, it is a decision between two sinners."

This is not about stopping the sinners, it is about giving "legal status" to method of sex.

There is no way to stop the sinner, they have freewill, however what you ignore is that "status of a nation" as a whole who "gives" what is not theirs to "give" legal status a "civil right" based upon method of sex act with "consent".

This is no longer about punishment for sin it has moved into the "legal" arena. Allowing "legal" status to sodomy with "consent" makes the nation as a whole a willing participant.

Like Abraham who asked our Heavenly Father "preadventure there was but 10 righetous left in Sodom" it Sodom would not be destroyed, what you are advocating by giving legal status makes US the one and same as Sodom.

This is what I stand against making us, our legal system one and the same as Sodom.

You are in error, all it does is nullify a law saying something is illegal.

The government should have no say (and via the constitutions of the US and the states they don't) on ANY matter between consenting adults on sex or any other issue, as long as it does not violate the rights of people outside the activity.

This is not an approval by the government, it would be the government taking the rightful stand that they do not have "jurisdiction" in the matter.

In addition, you would be in error if you believe this is a "Christian" nation.

Treaty of Tripoli
“Article 11. As the government of the United States of America is not in any sense founded on the Christian Religion,--as it has in itself no character of enmity against the laws, religion or tranquility of Musselmen,--and as the said States never have entered into any war or act of hostility against any Mehomitan nation, it is declared by the parties that no pretext arising from religious opinions shall ever produce an interruption of the harmony existing between the two countries”

This is not about stopping the sinners, it is about giving "legal status" to method of sex.

Bingo. You can't demand full faith and credit under the US Constitution for a license issued in one state which implies an illegal act in another. That scenario weakens the argument for "gay marriage", so the gays are attacking the statutory foundation of their legal difficulty.

God's law doesn't matter to these people, just the dependant insurance plan and survivor benefits. If they get this crap through, Divorce Court will eventually be a real circus....
