I love the fact that so many christian churches preach that it's so wrong and that two men or two women should never love each other, and yet the first known gay marriage, I believe, was performed by the Roman Catholic church because Roman law wouldn't recognise a civil wedding, but would accept a church marriage as legal and that would save them from inheritance problems between their families should one of them die.

Unfortunately, the church then went on, a few centuries later, to seriously edit the bible, removing a lot of the pro-women bits and retranslating terms in stories like that of Sodom, where what they were originally condemned for was a breach of hospitality laws (and threatening to rape their guests. Who were angels).

And when I say 'I love it', I mean that the irony and blind cruelty that sometimes goes with it makes me want to cry sometimes.
