Same-sex marriage

I am for complete equality, and certainly for gay marriage.

I disagree with the common assertion that the Bible says it's wrong. I know there's a bit about men laying with men in the part about Sodom and Gomorrah, but I'm pretty sure that was a pretty small problem at the time, and not why those cities were destroyed. There's a bit that says a man shall not lay with a man as he would with a woman, but a) men do not lay with men quite the same way they'd lay with a woman usually, due to different equipment, and b) the same section also has ridiculous rules like stoning to death someone who works on Sabbath or wears mixed fibers, and all those were thrown out with the advent of Jesus, as we passed from the Age of Law into the Age of Grace. So I could see why a Jew may think that it's against Yahweh, though I'd still disagree, but I'm fairly certain Jesus has no qualms about it.

And nowhere is there anything saying men can't marry men, women can't marry women, or even that women can't lay with women, just some vague and up-to-interpretation passages about "men laying with men".

I think this debate can pretty much be laid to rest as we have come into an age of a more enlightened society.
