Growing support for same sex marriages from all religions. (bar evangelicals)

Emerging Consensus on LGBT Issues: Findings From the 2017 American Values Atlas | PRRI

Since the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in 2015 that same sex couples have a constitutional right to marry, support for same-sex marriage has increased substantially. Currently, more than six in ten (61%) Americans say gay and lesbian couples should be able to marry legally, while only about half as many (30%) are opposed.

Strength of support for same-sex marriage has increased dramatically over the past decade, while strength of opposition has fallen in nearly equal measure. Today, Americans who strongly favor same-sex marriage outnumber those who strongly oppose it by more than a two-to-one margin (30% vs. 14%). In 2007, only 13% of the public strongly favored same-sex marriage, while nearly one-quarter (24%) strongly opposed it.1 Much of this shift has occurred within the last five years. As recently as 2013, more than four in ten (42%) Americans opposed same-sex marriage, including about one in four (23%) who strongly opposed it.2 Over the last five years, strong supporters of same-sex marriage increased only modestly, from 25% to 30%.

Even the majority of Muslims are supportive. it looks like the battle is won in the US.

Not necessarily.

Should Justice Kennedy retire at the end of the October 2017 term, Trump’s nominee will no doubt be a hardcore reactionary social conservative hostile to the equal protection rights of gay and transgender Americans, placing the case law recognizing the right of same-sex couples to marry in jeopardy.

If that happens the battle will be far from over.

Sure, Tom! Just get your foot in the door with legitimizing homosexual perversion one place, then another, soon, everyone gets used to hearing about it and before you know it just get USED to the idea of fags and queers being equated as no different than a real marriage between man and woman sanctioned by the church under god for the sake of raising a family. Used to be that kids were raised that way and were taught strict moral and ethical upbringing, but now that anything goes, we are getting our first taste of the "new generation" of kids who bring rifles to school to shoot everybody because the fucking world doesn't make sense to them anymore.

Are you really blaming gay marriage for school shootings?

No, progressivism, liberalism, and its many facets---- gay marriage is just one small part of it. It is hard enough seeing your parents get a divorce, not sure what I'd think if one day I woke up to realize both my "mom" and "dad" were two guys or girls and I wasn't even their kid! And the thousand other incongruities that go hand and hand with that.

No religion in this world believes that homosexuality isn't wrong.

Who cares who gets married?
Well, i guess the better question is, "why do you care who they marry?"

Except no school shooter has ever had same sex parents. Trying to make a connection between the two things is ridiculous, and based on nothing other than preconceived feelings towards same sex marriage.

Who cares what's "Biblical"? People like to cherry pick the Bible based on their own agenda.

Thou shalt not kill. Turn the other cheek. Except in the case of the death penalty.

Divorce is bad. Adultery is bad. Unless your wife is being a c*nt.

Render unto Caeser that which is Caeser's. Unless it's a tax I personally don't agree with.

Most social conservatives are the most disingenuous cocksuckers on the planet.

People, by and large...are assholes. Hiding behind a text doesn't make you any less of one. It just makes you a slightly different version.
