Another Wave of Homosexual "Marriage" Begins in Massachusetts

With the three-day waiting period between applying for a marriage license and getting married having passed by Thursday, May 20, a second wave of same-sex couples ‘tied the knot’ in Massachusetts.

Despite the strict law placed by the governor Mitt Romney, prohibiting all out-of-state gay couples from getting “married,” several of the clerks continued to give the non-Massachusetts couples licenses.

Several of the very liberal Christian denominations joined in the “celebrations” on Thursday, by “marrying” the homosexual couples in their pews. The Unitarian Universalists – who is only Christian by their own calling – has been at the forefront of “blessing” these unions. The United Church of Christ has also been a avid support of such “marriages.”

Meanwhile, the more evangelical churches began mobilising their members to take action against the “marriages.” The Assemblies of God, for one, publicly called on their members to freely insert literature explaining the denomination’s position on the issue and the reason a Federal Marriage Amendment to protect traditional marriage was necessary. Many of the Southern Baptist leaders also voiced their concern over the “day of infamy” when the legalization of such “marriages” occurred.

This weekend, these Christian leaders will join together for a 90-minute broadcast explaining and informing the reason traditional marriage must be protected, and prayer must be offered at the local level. Also, there will be a rally on Saturday, in Arlington Texas. Sponsored by the Promise Keepers men’s ministry, the event will draw black Church leaders from across the nation. The Campaign for California families have also scheduled a rally on May 23rd at the capital of California.
