Gay marriage in Connecticut

A little over a week ago, Connecticut allowed same-sex unions. Between October 2005 and July 2008, there were 2,032 civil union licenses issued in Connecticut. Many plaintiffs openly conveyed how proud they are to be citizens of the state. Robin Levine-Ritterman said, "It's a great day for Connecticut."

It was only three months ago that I wrote on this blog about Ella and Portia getting married. The same points that I made then still apply to the situation in Connecticut. I understand that many people believe that same-sex civil unions are just a part of "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness," but mankind just cannot do anything they wish. Proverbs 14:34 says, "Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people." If something is against the will of God (and homosexuality is), they we cannot support and uphold it! We cannot encourage people who "glory in their shame" (Philippians 3:19). This goes not only for homosexuals, but for all who are in sin (no matter what the sin). Pray that they might see the sinfulness of their conduct and repent!
