Church stance on gay marriage "for good of society", says Bishop Michael Nazi

[kılıç_mehmet]

There are no passages which speak to homosexuality as a sin.

In the bible? I guess the law of Moses speaks very clearly about those who commit sodomy. But I'm not sure what the official stance is about just "being" homosexual without including sexual acts.

We seem to be far less tolerant of such relationships today than we were in the distant past.

Well, I don't know, I am fairly certain that even those who engaged in homosexual acts with others of their sex would simply do this with younger members, not with fully grown men as it's done today, neither would they have such a thing in terms of marital law, but I guess it was prevalent in Rome once.
As you probably notice, it always talks about "lovers" not husbands-husbands or whatever word one uses to denote the roles of spouses in a homosexual marriage.
I think that further stigmatizing homosexuality is an unnecessary thing in the times we live in, but really, my personal opinion on marriage only includes the way it has always been.
