WOO HOO!!!! Same-Sex Marriages Declared Legal in CA Again!

And yes, I'm a Christian... but no... I don't think allowing same-sex couples to wed will "destroy" traditional marriage. Traditional marriage will always remain popular with the 90% of the human population that is heterosexual. Marriage should not remain the province only of "one man and one woman" in America.

"Against love there is no law."  - The Holy Bible.

The word "abomination" (when targeting homosexuality in the Bible) means "eyesore," properly translated from the original texts.  I agree that sexuality (of any stripe) may be considered an "eyesore" if engaged in in public... but there is no commandment against same sex couplings where actual love is involved. 

The homosexuality "spotlighted" in the Bible, in every instance, was about lust and fornication without benefit of love or marriage. It was about dominating another, or about uncommitted couplings.

I believe it's hypocritical for Christians to disallow marriage; when we do, we make homosexuals "fornicators" rather than committed couples. By allowing gays and lesbians to marry, we remove the stigma associated with same-sex commitment.  And I'm all for that.

Let's legislate against hate if we feel we have to legislate against emotions, feelings and passionate commitments.  See how that works out...
