It varies from church to church. Unitarians have no problem with it for example.

It depends on the church if the church is interested in the inner soul and a persons ability to improve and work on there spiritual growth and journey to a higher power then In the words of Jesus they would not be looking at the splinter in there brothers eyes or casting stones or acting like the pharisees who put ritual and human laws above the Love and Compasion. There are a few churches that do this and Respect love and the way people are Born.
There are other churches who look outwards at the sins of others and dont work on themselves this is the easy and conveniant lazy Church this is what Jesus was talking about when he talked about the Antichrist. Not looking at the Log in ones own eyes not looking in at ones own soul and pointing at other peoples sins. Jesus called these people Hypocrtits .WHo is the Judge GOd is any one who points at his neighbors sin is comiting a sin against the holy spirit.Taking this easy softer way is human everyone has done it in one way or another Im doing it know By placing judgment on people who do it

You know Queenie Tay, why should people even bother asking these sorts of questions? There have been homosexuals for YEARS, YEARS before the bible was even thought up or written. How do you think most stable boys became knight trainees? They slept with a knight because they were too poor to do anything else. The queen that never married (I forgot her name) But she was a lesbian, why else did she never marry? Lords and vassels, think about the history before saying things.
There are BILLIONS upon BILLIONS of stinky human reproductiosn going on EVERYDAY of EVERY MINUTE, why should people be so concerned about a small hand full of homosexuals wanting to get married? It's not as if the world will suddenly die because of a few men marrying each other. The world is more filled with straight men than gay ones.
And you, person who asked the question, why even ask such a question? You should know the answer to that. I'll stop my rant now before I go on even more.

That depends. If the church is in a high homosexual neighborhood where the gays donate a substantial portion of the churches' income then the church approves and will perform the marriages. If the homosexuals constitute the minority income, then the marriages are banned. Like it or not,most religions are businesses.

I know that in my church it is wrong. it is not allowed. However anyone who is gay is welcome to come and learn the truth and change their way of life so they can accept Christ and have a truly happy christian life. I do not mean my church per say I should have said the church I attend and am a member of. Any church that is a Bible teaching church will tell you to read 1 Corinthians 6: 9-19. 1 Corinthians 6:13 states " Food for the stomach and the stomach for food"---but God will destroy them both. The body is not meant for sexual immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body. I say that says it all.

A bible-believing church would not sanction a same sex marriage because that is not what God created.
