[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For those of you who answered that are American Muslims, I was interested in HOW you came to support same sex marriage, not necessarily whether you do, given the clear prohibition in the Quran. If you are not a practicing Muslim, then I can understand you would come to the conclusion of supporting same sex marriage. However, if you are a practicing Muslim, how on earth do you stand in contradiction to the clear prohibition in the Quran? [/quote]

I posted early in the thread.

Because the government must guarantee equal rights/opportunities to its citizens.[/quote]

Yes, but the government must also guarantee the freedom of religion clause to religious institutions and organizations too. Why aren't you supporting that part too?[/quote]

Who said I'm not? How does letting gay couples marry threaten religious organizations?[/quote]

Because there are Muslim homosexuals and Muslim lesbians today who want to marry their partners and will ask imams to officiate their marriages...because of this new marriage equality law. There are Muslim homosexuals who are married to men who will seek employment in religious institutions. Whose side will you support?[/quote]
