One God created everything. Why would there be a god for this and that?
That was the original view.

One God created everything. Why would there be a god for this and that?
Many do since they don't want to go through all the mess with marriage-it's expensive. Christian straights (and gay people etc) who opt for civil unions tend to say god loves them and blessings their marriage even without a formal ceremony since marriage technically is a legal contract between a couple whether they are christian, gay, or not it's finally considered a marriage under law just not by the church.
Same gender love is okay as a friend, not as a partner.
Skirts look more feminine than pants do masculine.
But that's cultural. Taboo and cultural differences doesn't make it immoral. Likewise, people used to get stoned for loving someone with the same genitals so they live a lie because people are more concerned for their sex and not their faith.
Maybe you're looking too much in the externals?
Lust means a desire for something that doesn't belong to you.
Why? How is it different?
For example, what is the difference between two men's commitment and a man and a woman's commitment? (taking marriage out)
I'm trying to look pass what's between their legs. Is there another reason?
In some societies marriages doesn't involve the law or the church but in this society that's how marriages work.
The definition of lust does not add the qualifier "that doesn't belong to you."
In the US it's changing. We just can't get married under Catholic (and similar sacramental churches). It depends heavily which protestants would marry a gay or lesbian couple. Many times churches shun those they find out they are gay. So, it is all about the sex.
The first people were married.
Nobody said that a gay relationship is the worst thing ever.
Lust is something that is negative.
God created marriage to be between a man and a woman, not two men or two women.
Legal doesn't make it right.
Yes. But that's not my question.
I don't agree with shunning gay people. Someone living together before marriage isn't sinning less.
No, lust is a strong sexual desire, actuallyLust means a desire for something that doesn't belong to you.
There's no need for any romantic relationships outside of that type of relationship.
They do now, with the fairly recent legalisation of Gay marriage in most Western countries. Gay couples can now be referred to as married couples in the lexicon.I'm talking about people will talk about gay people and straight people, not gay people and married people.
