I'm an Atheist but saying you're a pro gay Christian is an oxymoron.
for example: Gen 19:5-8 "and they called to Lot and said to him, 'Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us that we may have relations with them.' But Lot went out to them at the doorway, and shut the door behind him, and said, 'Please, my brothers, do not act wickedly.'"

not quite in my christian opinion. being gay is considered a sin, but that doesn't mean that they don't deserve rights like everyone else. Being gay is just a flavor of sin, something that everyone has. Being a Christian means that you are supposed to wish the best for others, no matter who they are. Not sure if im explaining this properly or not.
Just because you're a Christian, and think it's wrong, doesn't mean you can't support them having rights. In my opinion, gay marriage should be legal, but they shouldn't tell churches to marry them. That should be up to the churches themselves. I think it's wrong, and a sin, but it's no different than just sex out of marriage in general.
Implying Christians aren't allowed to disagree with what their religion says.
Think of it this way: religion may be a system of moral thought, but people often treat it like a citizenship. So Catholics will talk about whether they support whatever the Pope said in the last little while, or they might decide "I think such-and-such is wrong, and they should have discluded that book from the Bible." Being Christian isn't really a way to describe yourself the way it used to be.

if you claim to be a christian, follow the teaching of Christ. he denounced gay marriage as well, by supporting that sexual intercourse should only take place between married man and married woman. go find it, you seem like you could use a bit more of The Bible in your mind.

im a christian that supports gay marriage too. My religion may tell me its wrong and that i myself shouldn't do it but in all reality i cant call myself a good christian and say whatever my religion says all people must do regardless of religion...does that make me a bad christian? probably, but you are supposed to treat others as you would want to be treated and i wouldn't want someone saying my religion doesn't support what you want to do regardless of you not being part of my religion. so im with him in this one and not every christian is a homophobic person who says its only my way.
