Wh that clarifyg ment, we n addrs the qutn head-on: Why would a Christian feel nscience bound not to attend or participate a gay weddg? Which is why—as much as I might want to build bridg wh a lbian iend or reassure a gay fay member that I re for him and want to have a relatnship wh him—I would not attend a same-sex weddg ceremony.

If a gay uple next door v you over for dner, don't turn them down.

WHY CHRISTIAN PHOTOGRAPHERS SHOULD WORK AT GAY WEDDGS

Ratburn g out as gay and gettg married. gay rights. First, a word of enuragement: if you are the kd of iend that a gay uple would ve to their weddg, then you are probably dog somethg right.

Homosexualy is jt one of many ss listed 1 Corthians 6:9-10 that will keep a person om the kgdom of God. Some would ntend that a Christian should have no qualms about attendg a gay weddg and that one’s prence at a gay weddg do not necsarily dite support for the homosexual liftyle.

The problem is that a gay weddg is a celebratn of two people who are livg a liftyle that God clar to be immoral and unnatural (Romans 1:26-27).

'ARTHUR' EPISO WH GAY WEDDG BANNED IN ALABAMA

“Marriage should be honored by all” (Hebrews 13:4), but a gay weddg dishonors marriage by pervertg s meang.

Unlike weddgs of those other fahs, a gay weddg do not qualify as a marriage, acrdg to what God clar marriage to be. A gay unn is not a marriage God’s ey. Suppose a Christian uld attend a gay weddg and somehow munite clearly that he is supportg only the dividuals gettg married and not their liftyle.

There is no way around the fact that a gay weddg ceremony is a celebratn of s. In the same way, we support a homosexual iend by helpg him out of the liftyle, not by signg a gut book at a celebratn of homosexualy.

In a recent post, I argued that a photographer who ref to shoot a same-sex weddg isn't necsarily monstratg homophobia, bigotry, or anti-gay hatred. " On Twter, I've also remend Julian Sanchez's analysis on this failure to reflexively sist that anti-discrimatn laws, some of which I support, variably tmp all other societal terts, and my sistence that there are both siari and huge differenc between what blacks faced cir 1960 and what gays and lbians face today, have ed some rears to draw an accurate ncln: that I believe 's basilly unobjectnable for a photographer (say), when motivated by scere relig belief, to boytt same-sex weddgs.

Such remedi may be need, a given stance, to addrs anti-gay discrimatn.

If gays Ameri were beg turned away om rtrants or hotel rooms as a class, if a private ambulance pany refed to answer emergency lls om a gay-weddg venue, or if a lol ernment agency were discrimatg agast gays and lbians hirg, I'd happily endorse a erced legal burn imposed on gays the se we're discsg—very ocsnally havg to choose a different weddg vendor for a subset of nuptial servic provid by profsnals engaged exprsive activy vered by the First Amendment—is thankfully ty parison to historic of nondiscrimatn, that isn't to say I thk 's right to discrimate agast gay weddgs this way. There n be no nyg that persuasn has radilly changed the attus of Amerins toward gays and lbians recent years.

Everyone heartened by the spread of gay marriage, as I am, or enuraged by the backlash agast anti-gay bullyg, which ought to grow stronger still, n take heart the fact that every trend is movg the right there is wispread dismissal of persuasn as a ser remedy—and a siarly nfoundg certaty that fg photographers will prove more effective, even though non-discrimatn law has arguably done far ls for gay, let's try persuasn, if only this space.

Christian photographers should take pictur at gay weddgs wh a clear nscience. Persuasn n affirm the equal digny that gay marriag serve to enjoy. Alabama Public Televisn ref to air Arthur episo wh gay weddg — (@aldot) May 20, 2019.
