"Who said anything about forcing?? On the contrary it is the opposite lobby that is forcing it down everyone else's throat if this incident has any bearing on the matter. By God. The anti-christian sentiment is strong in this one. Why point fingers to the church in this matter and not to those for gay marriage? Why can they push their agenda and not those of christian belief? What hypocrisy, I despite it."
So restricting the definition of marriage and preventing same-sex couples from enjoying the same rights and benefits is not forcing your beliefs on others? You're telling me that if a Jewish, same-sex couple wants to get married in a Temple that supports it then they are not allowed to do so because the Christian Church has the right to define marriage? How is this not forcing your religious beliefs on others? How does this make any sense at all?
"That's your prerogative, but I terribly disagree. A person does not need a religion to have a moral code, or a sense of belief. Both Christianity and atheism agree on this view."
You used the term faith which has a specific meaning. You did not say moral code or sense of belief.
"Why the quotation marks, I never said anything of the matter."
Opposing same-sex marriage effectively prevents same-sex couples from enjoying the same freedoms and rights as the general population. Civil unions typically do not afford the same benefits, marriage is still treated differently and as such, same-sex couples are treated differently without access to same-sex marriage.
Edit: No offense but all your statements about the Old Testament being as the teachings of Christ are completely groundless and anti-Christian to me. I do not wish to discuss it further but know here and now that I do not consider you to be Christian. I'm not trying to offend, it's just that Judeo-Christianity is not Christianity in my eyes, just as the Catholic Church's Pagan-Christianity isn't either.
