It didn't bother you, but you were shocked by it? (but it didn't bother me to see it on the list. ....this truly truly shocked me) And you didn't address the rest.

Even individual states can state what they consider to constitute a marriage, so what is wrong with a group doing so?

I guess because it was in the section where they describe their group, and because the group was called "One God Apostolic Pentecostals" it felt to me that they were defining what they believed to be OGAP's (I'm tired of typing that out!)

For all I know, maybe they had a bunch of the Gay Apostolic try to join, and they felt the need to specify, "hey, we're not cool with that".

It's just....do you ever tire of judging/and being judged by what you or other's are against. Cause we all do, on each and ever side. I do it, I did it in the original post. You do, you did to me in another thread.

I sit here crying because I just don't understand why we can't all just love Jesus and let it unite us, and show it to the world, imagine what we could accomplish.....and then I cynically wipe the tears off my face because it's a foolish dream that will never happen.
