The church itself in many places are not recognizing this, and will not allow it. It is the constitution that want to make it legal, in some countries. In some countries being gay is a crime punishable by law. This matter is still not recognized where i am, but surely the gay and lesbian community have been trying to get it to that point without success for many years. It is still not legal for same sex couples to get married here. Same sex couples are more accepted today than many years ago. But in a lot of countries being gay will never be accepted fully.

As far as I know there is no legal restriction in the USA or the UK to prevent gay people setting up their own church. I don't refer to backward countries.

That's what I always wondered too. But its about the legal actions itself that they want. Not some insignificant marriage in a (probably slave built) church.

No it's about the word marriage I think. Gays have the same legal rights here in the UK but still want marriage too.

It would be in a gay church...that's my point.

But a gay religion is outside of the law, isn't it?

Why hasn't anyone come up with this idea yet? You, sir, are a genius.
Mikemcneil · 61-69, M
Because it doesn't upset anyone I guess?
Explodey
Lol. Yep, those gay people must just like the thrill of trying to get married under the eyes of God. To see if they can get away with it. :P.

I am sure it is a dream come true for them!

It sure exists but marriage is civil nowadays.
Mikemcneil · 61-69, M
I don't understand
EarthlingWise
No church will make marriage legal.

Why don't atheists form an atheist church to get married?
