Welcome. It's becoming apparent that you hold alternative views.

But maybe not on Sodom and Gomorrha and homosexuality.

Well I don't know that God judged Sodom and Gomorrah for homesexuality. Not according to Ezekiel anyway :

Eze 16:49 Behold, this was the guilt of your sister Sodom: she and her daughters had pride, excess of food, and prosperous ease, but did not aid the poor and needy.
Eze 16:50 They were haughty and did an abomination before me. So I removed them, when I saw it.


I take you saying Christians against gay marriage are doing America a service by trying to hold back God's judgment, as He did to S & G. But Ezekiel explains the reason for His judgment was for : "pride, excess of food, and prosperous ease, but did not aid the poor and needy. They were haughty... "
