Should Christians reinterpret the Bible to accept same-sex marriage?

" With that kind of forecast, it is no wonder that many Christians are scratching their heads and mumbling under their breaths, "well, maybe there is some semi-plausible though non-obvious way to rediscover the Bible as friendly to gay marriage!"

"Post-Obergefell, the war for the heart and soul of Christianity has begun in earnest. Less than a week after Emperor Anthony Kennedy issued his fiat of 'love conquers the Constitution', the Episcopal Church rushed to rescue their dinner party invitations. They quickly voted themselves into the new era, approving same-sex weddings and replacing the outdated and homophobic words "man and woman" with "couple" in their marriage canons.

"Whew, that was close, but Episcopalians now appear to be safe from the presumption of hatred, intolerance and bigotry that will plague the rest of the followers of Christ.

"Meanwhile, other Christians are waking up to the reality that they might as well wear T-shirts emblazoned with "Ku Klux Klan", because that is precisely how they are perceived - and how they will be treated - by America's new masters of the universe." . . .
