125. My critcism:
Is NOT that churches will be forced to marry gay couples. It IS that churches will be forced to recognize civil gay marriages in their business affairs (and all churches hire outside contractors to do business be it janitors, plumbing, repair or construction services). Gay marriages would force those firms to give the same benefits to all married couples. Church money--raised through member donations--would be forced to be expended on something that some churches teach against. That's wrong and that's why I don't support gay marriage. Gay marriage crosses the line between church and state.
