Even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient. For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature

Good for him resisting. Gay marriage is not a marriage and if should not be recognized as such.

Is Same-Sex Marriage OK?
