    Why would gay couples want to be blessed by a religion that actively demonizes them?

      There are plenty of LBG Christians. I will try to give you the 1 paragraph answer from a protestant. All humans are sinners so religion “activity demonized” all of humanity. But luckily, all sins are forgiven through Jesus Christ. So whilst they may be living in sin, so is everyone and we are all forgiven equally.
      If you didn’t actually want an answer then it is you own fault for including the question mark.

      Because they were raised Catholic and they want their church to stop demonizing them. Blessing them would be a start. People are taught religion from a young age, perhaps younger than they have any kind of sexual identity. Therefore their whole concept of “them” may be as much Catholic as it is gay.

        You yourself have insisted that marriage is between man and woman and that sex is only acceptable for procreation, and only after marriage.

        You view homosexual people as sinners. You pretend to love them while oppressing them. Their relationships are not hurting you. There is no god to offend.

            Your actions to delegitimize their relationships is oppression.

            Stop lying, coward. You’re a homophobe.

              Example: the level of homophobia within sport continues to be a huge issue

                    By calling it sin, you oppress the people.

                    Fuck you for choosing death.

                    How many more suicides do you think there will be this year alone?
