Supreme Court Marriage Equality

I received an e mail from the National Association of Evangelicals
taking issue with the Supreme Courts decision on Gay Marriage.

They quoted Jesus saying marriage is between a man and
a woman and how this decision destroys the concept
of Gods ordaining marriage between a man and a woman.

This is how I answered them


 Unfortunately you are wrong about marriage.

This does not change God given marriage between one
man and one woman.

What this does is provide an exception for people who
are different so that in spite of their difference they
may experience a fuller life.

You quote Jesus about marriage but you fail to quote his
reply when asked why some men do not marry.

Jesus said, there are some eunuchs who are born that
way from their mothers womb.

He had commented on Eunuchs who make themselves that way
for the kingdom of heaven meaning priests and monks etc.

He commented on Eunuchs castrated as being made that way
by men.

He commented on Natural Eunuchs born that way.  These were
the homosexuals of today covered under the law. They were
physically whole. They were allowed to marry and adopt children.

Jesus understood there would be those like your organization who
would be against this and that is why He said, let he who can
accept this do so.

You are wrong about marriage equality and you fail to report
Jesus full teaching, and you should know better.
