text: I have to agree with much in this article.  The biggest issue it brings to light is that we have a church whose leaders, because they do not wish to learn, make constant bad assumptions about marriage, sex, gender, & love.  
  
  Strangely, few apostles speak very deliberately in our scripture regarding sex.  St. Paul gets kudos in my opinion for stating some real truth about sex & marriage.  Many people get married because if they didn't they could not control their sexual drives and remain chaste.  This is really the only reason Paul gives for marrying in our church.  He never mentions marrying in order to make more Christians but instead to keep yourself from fornication you should marry if your will is weak.  You should love & treat each other as you would wish to be treated no matter who you marry.  
  
  There is no allowance for homosexual marriage with St. Paul but Paul is not Jesus.  Jesus is never quoted as saying anything specifically condemning of homosexual couples in any Gospel.
