More Gay Marriage Hub-bub

"Multnomah County cannot deny marriage licenses to gay or lesbian couples," said Commissioner Lisa Naito. "We will not allow discrimination to continue when the Constitution of the state of Oregon grants privileges equally to all citizens."

Naito was joined by fellow commissioners Maria Rojo De Steffey and Serena Cruz, and commission Chairwoman Diane Linn, at a county office where hundreds of people had already lined up to apply for their marriage licenses.

De Steffey added that the Oregon Constitution "and my Christian faith allow me no other choice."

Her Christian faith allows her no other choice than to permit gay people to.. to.. marry? Doesn't the New Testament forbid homosexuality along with theft, lying, murder, and sex outside of marriage? The Bible I have says it that way. Maybe the commissioner has one of the more liberal translations or goes to one of the 'reconciling' congregations where everything goes.

God loves all people - yes. God also hates sin. Christians are commanded to love all people but that does NOT mean we accept or endorse particular behaviors, particularly when they are blatently against scripture. Love the sinner, hate the sin.
