BCSpace Posted August 9, 2012 Author Posted August 9, 2012 I am going to assume that you are implying that Senator Reid is in opposition to the Church because he recently voiced support of Same Sex Civil Marriage.Tip of the iceberg.While I would not personally move to voice support for Same Sex Marriage, it is easy to understand why some members might when the government has so inextricably involved itself in what was essentially a religious sacrament.No, not really. Romans 1:32 stands in stark contrast to this opinion of yours.It is unfortunate that the government has not yet simply jettisoned the term marriage in describing the unions it chooses to endow with certain civil rights and responsibilities, and until it does so, some in the Church will feel they cannot, in good conscience, oppose SSM. We should respect that without suggesting that they stand in opposition to the Church.Nice sentiments do not justify going against the doctrine of the Lord and his Church. "Do you support, affiliate, agree with any individual or organization....?" is not a light question.
