Please, Girl, Read Your Dang Bible

New Republic:

The kind of marriage this holy God has instituted is described in that book he wrote, the Bible, which is what opponents of gay marriage lean on, implicitly and not, when they talk about “traditional marriage.” But the kind of marriages described in the Bible have nothing to do with the one man-one woman principle that the religious right claims is the original, divinely inspired, fully-licensed marriage 1.0.

In the UCC it is marriage equality, in Germany the discussion is about the EKD’s paper on family: “Strengthening the family as a reliable community”.

Read the Bible first before arguing for “traditional marriage”…..
