I was getting a haircut from a young gay man once and I asked him what he thought of Marriage Equality and he said he thought it was not a good idea because some gay people have multiple partners and they should not get married.

You think I would support what if it came to what?

A Theocracy.

He probably felt awkward.

I certainly want my country run by a Christian, 💯

It was a genuine question on my part. I was expecting a yes from him.

You’re suggesting a gay man can’t have an opinion that doesn’t conform with liberal values? Not very liberal of you.

I don't particularly care about marriage much. But registry office marriages exist and between consenting adults, it shouldn't be a problem.

I'm saying a person that was doing a service job might not have wanted to be drawn into a potentially heated debate.

So you would like a Theocracy where if you had a boyfriend, he could trade you for a goat or something?

😂 Ok this just went from relatively sensible debate to lunacy.

You know as well as I do that the Old Testament openly condones slavery. That includes slavery of women and children.

Group think. Anyone with an identity has to conform to that identity.

Did he give you a good haircut? Did you tip him?

No, some characters in it practised slavery... It shows Israel being dragged off into slavery by the Assyrians and Babylonians and it's not pretty. Pro slavery? No.

Yes and yes.

Then he might have been being non-committal for that reason.

No.. It's not gay vs straight by any means.. I am good friends with everyone at the business and we discuss everything. I know their partners...

I am a Christian, not a Jew. I have a New Covenant. I have explained this in previous messages.
God placed his people (Israel) into slavery for 400 years (you won’t like this I’m sure, but it was to prevent assimilation into a foreign culture). That does not mean He would support me having a boyfriend or said boyfriend trading me for a goat!

Fair enough. But based on one person's view, doesn't mean that gay people shouldn't be allowed to marry in a secular setting. My maternal grandparents married in a registry office; mainly because of budget but they still did.

He wasn’t non committal, he set out his stance, you just don’t agree with it.
