Catholic, evangelical document says same-sex marriage more dangerous than divorce or cohabitation
A document issued by a group of Catholics and evangelicals calls same-sex marriage a greater danger to society than wide acceptance of divorce or couples living together outside marriage.
The document calls same-sex marriage "a graver threat" to society than "easy acceptance of divorce" or "widespread cohabitation."
Same-sex unions are against the Bible and Christian tradition, it said.

So there you have it: 50% of marriages failing because of divorce is STILL not as bad as gay people are for marriage. This is how they justify slamming us day after day while conveniently ignoring the multitude of divorces perpetrated by their own families and friends. Forget how many kids are being harmed. It still doesn't compare!

Gay people getting married would be a threat to the sanctity of Britney Spears' 55 hour marriage.
