Gay marriage

[Whateverist]

That's ridiculous. That's like saying atheists or Muslims or women should form their own sect of Christianity in order to raise a child. You must see how silly that is.

I am still on thread topic not adoption.......... I am not saying marriage is a grounds for being allowed to adopt.

What I am saying is;

Homosexual Christians say God allows gay marriage, the ones against say he doesn't. Different interpretations, the basis for a branch off Christian group. I don't see why that would be offensive to anyone, seems logical if anything.

I am confused why someone who brands himself an anti-theist recommends labeling oneself as some kind of Christian - for whatever purpose. Also, if you see that pair bonding precedes religion evolutionarily, why do you speak of marriage as being an artifact of religion? What counts is the legal recognition of rights and benefits, and that is something the state decides through its legislative and judicial function. Whether or not someone wants to have a wedding ceremony performed at any particular church is a completely separate matter. I surely would not want such a thing performed by a group hostile to what I am.
