House Speaker John Boehner Tells ABC He Would Oppose Gay Marriage Even If Family Member Came Out As Gay



Mediaite.com:
During an exclusive Sunday interview with ABC, House Speaker John Boehner told Martha Raddatz that he is unwavering in his opposition to gay marriage and would not change his opinion on the subject if a family member came out as gay like Senator Rob Portman‘s son earlier this week

“Rob is a great friend and a longtime ally. I appreciate that he has changed his views on this but I believe marriage is a union of a man and a woman,” Boehner told Raddatz. 

Raddatz inquired what he would do if one of his relatives turned out to be gay. Would he he change his views on this subject? 

“I believe that marriage is the union of one man and one woman. It’s what I grew up with it. It’s what I believe. It’s what my church teaches me. I can’t imagine that position would ever change,” he said.
Good for Speaker Boehner. Homosexuality is an unGodly behavioral choice made by individuals that is based on nothing but untethered lust. Changing your mind on an issue like "gay marriage" all because a family member chooses to engage in homosexuality is corny, lame and stupid because it shows that your principles can change on a whim. And while no sane conservative would ever tell someone to love your child any less because they choose to engage in homosexuality, accepting this unGodly act is the same as accepting them being an alcoholic or a drug addict or a rapist--love the sinner, hate the sin.
