3 religious groups back gay rights in Ref I

See, they're not ALL bad! Of course I thought the United Church of Christ would, but it's nice to have some Methodists, Jews and Presbyterians on board. I guess it's the largest coalition of churches in the state, the Colorado council of Churches! The Jews come in through the Colorado Interfaith Alliance. Colorado Clergy for Equality in Marriage is the other group.

As expected, Focus on the Family is bucking it as is the Colorado Catholic Conference. They think it is "marriage in disguise"...

My libertarian stance is that people are going to form whatever relationship they wish; recognized or not. As long as people aren't engaging in illegal activities, like trying to marry and have sex with children and other really taboo things, I think it is nobody's business! The fact is there are many same-sex couples in committed relationships that obey the law and pay taxes.

This is a good compromise between the same-sex marriage foes and proponets.
