Sure. However this is over 2000 years after Jesus.
We're not getting better. We're, as a species world wide, getting worse.
And now perversion is defensible as a civil right and mental illness is to be tolerated and something to proudly parade in the streets.
Did the apostles see this reading to children outside the Alexandrian library?
But if I say that freak would never sit my child on their lap , and that's signs of mental illness , I'm intolerant , a bigot and a transphobe.

But it is all the same wickedness in God's eyes.
It is in many ways but there are dispensations where it is obvious that God is guiding the direction to something new like the church age or the age from monarchs (one world powers to Republics and splintered nations. But ultimately it will all still lead to be like the days of Noah.

The whole issue and debate over govco cosigning fetish unions and life styles is absurd. The founders of western culture would have never dreamed of such a possibility. The idea that abhorrent sexual proclivity must be foisted upon the public and flaunted before the eyes of our children is devious.

"Powers not specifically granted to the Federal Government in this Constitution are reserved by the individual states".
Meaning that Marriages are the sole purview of state control.
Any law that Congress manufactures concerning marriage is unconstitutional.
States hold that power exclusively and individually.
Meaning that if a biological brother and sister are granted a marriage license in New Jersey they cannot expect to be legally married in Tennessee....because that state outlaws such Marriages.
However a normal couple who are married in Tennessee are still married in New Jersey.
The Federal Government cannot intercede in such matters. It can't force TN to recognize the NJ marriage.

Amendment X (10th Amendment – Reserved Powers)
The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.
The Feds have repeatedly over stepped , trampled on the Constitution. Even if the states have some ugly ungodly laws it should be up to the citizens of those states to change those laws. The idea of the Constitution was to limit the feds .

I think were getting so engrossed in this that were missing something very important. Thermos is a company that makes a product that keeps things hot or cold but everyone calls a thermos "a thermos" regardless of the brand,(gott tote,igloo,Thermos coleman ect.) who all make similar products. People say their going to drink a coke all the time but stop at a store and come out with a Dr.Pepper,a Pepsi,root-beer ect. these companies have had to fight hard in court to keep their brand names from being taken away from them by usage.
Which leads me to my point in that were so focused on debating for or against homosexuality and marriage that their community is stealing a Jewish,Christian ect. symbol right from under our noses,,, the Rainbow. What is the oldest known document stating or showing it's symbolism,usage image ect. ? "Genesis 9" https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Genesis 9&version=KJV it is the symbol of the Covenant God made between man the earth every living creature and himself it is not a symbol of homosexuality. We should all band together and legally have them stop using it as a symbol of homosexuality and trying to change it's original meaning. Tell them to "stop stealing the Rainbow".
