Make A Fundy's Head Explode: Gay Marriage Is Mentioned In The Bible

In the Bible, Jesus makes mention of three types of eunuchs. One type, the "born eunuch" seems to be defined as what we in modern times would call a homosexual man. And "born eunuchs" were permitted to marry.

Looks like the fundies are going to have to go back to the old standby argument of, "We're against gay marriage because we find it icky."

4. "Some Christians believe.." is not very convincing.

I just lurve this new "God wants you to be rich!" theology.
