Gay Marriage puts Religious Dems' Faith to the Test

"The world is bigger than gay marriage."

That seems to be one of the two themes (along with race) that explain why many Democrats who hold strong religious beliefs continue to support Obama after his announcement of his support for gay marriage. http://bit.ly/JNkXHi

It's an apologist's position. And it is an example of faith being tested and found wanting. If a person believes in God and in the truth of biblical teachings, then God is saying one thing and Obama is saying another. For believers, God's word is not negotiable. It's not a political message. God doesn't put a "spin" on his word and he never flip-flops. For a believer to choose to follow Man's word over God's word because it's convenient is a serious thing.

The world is bigger than gay marriage. But, if you believe in and follow God, the world is not bigger than His word.
