Andrew Sullivan: Religion OK with divorce, why not same-sex marriage?
Breitbart TV ^ | 6/30/2013

Posted on 06/30/2013 3:01:57 PM PDT by markomalley

Gay commentator Andrew Sullivan on Sunday CNN’s Fareed Zakaria: “I would say the religious arguments are more based in fear than in the actual teachings, that they’re based upon stray texts that actually don’t mean what you think they mean. Jesus himself only said one thing about marriage, which is that you can’t divorce. We live in a country were countless people are divorced and that doesn’t seem to threaten the religious liberty of Catholics. It’s as fundamental an issue.”

Jesus never said you shouldn’t go into schools and shoot classrooms full of little kids, either.

I don’t think I have ever seen a church sued because it refused to marry divorced couples. But then again, most accept divorce is not accepted so they go elsewhere. Can’t say the same for they homosexual crowd.

Isn’t this the writer that was busted placing ads in homosexual magazine looking for....pardon the words but... hairy male anal orgies?

Why does any normal human being care what this sick freak thinks?

Catholics are not OK with divorce. One wife. One husband.

Also, I as a Christian do frown upon divorce. Its prevalence in our society today indicates we are choosing life partners on whims, and not seeing marriage as a pact before God.

I don’t think any normal human being does care. It’s only his fellow media journalists who do.

Actually, Andrew, Christianity isn’t “OK” with divorce.

You do know he’s considered a “conservative” on the blogosphere, right?

One at a time. Just ask the Kennedys.

Is Sullivan REALLY expecting Jesus to have added an anatomy, biology, AND plumbing lesson to his Sermon on the Mount?

Andrew Sullivan,just another homo who brings a weak and uninformed opinion to the table.He should have asked his Muslim host about Islam’s view of buggery.

In the OT it says God hates divorce. Remarrying is worse than divorce because that is adultery. Yet it is so common in our society, hardly anyone even thinks about it and what Jesus meant.

I was ruminating over this gay business and knew that Jesus never spoke about homosexuals. But wait, this morning I remember he said something about eunuchs. Matthew. Some are born that way. Some are made so by men. And think some are for the kingdom of heaven. So maybe he did have something to say about it or confirmed that the prophecy he was reading had been confirmed in Jesus.

We don't know which kind of eunuch was in the carriage that was going along reading a scripture from the OT. I believe it was the apostle Phillip who stopped him and told him the good news about the kingdom.
