Ennon Baptist Church</a>: As an African-American pastor and clergy leader, I am frequently asked how I have been able to support civil marriage protection for gay and lesbian couples.&nbsp; After listening to Christians debate their support of or their opposition to homosexuality, I came to the conclusion that one's personal religious beliefs should have no bearing in determining whether other American citizens deserve equal treatment under the law.&nbsp; For too long the question of equal rights for gays and lesbians has been mired in a theological debate that in my opinion is not suitable in a public policy discussion.&nbsp; The issue of civil marriage rights for gay and lesbian couples is an issue of public policy, not theology.&nbsp; The role of the State in a free democratic society is fundamentally different than the role of the Church, or any religious institution for that matter.&nbsp; The role of the State in a pluralistic society is to provide for the common good and to protect the civil liberties of all its citizens.&nbsp; As a Christian in this country, I value my religious freedom, but I also recognize that I cannot impose my religious beliefs on others in matters of public policy.&nbsp; </td></tr></table> <p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/mCY0EFeasvd__eB9RIoVAuY7Lcs/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/mCY0EFeasvd__eB9RIoVAuY7Lcs/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/mCY0EFeasvd__eB9RIoVAuY7Lcs/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/mCY0EFeasvd__eB9RIoVAuY7Lcs/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/eriegaynews/eREq/~4/7qD45MbbJvA" height="1" width="1"/> 2012-05-15T23:04:00-05:00 http://www.eriegaynews.com/news/article.php?recordid=201206blackchurchssm&sourceid=4&sourcereason=RSS Feed http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/eriegaynews/eREq/~3/fJcB-Uu6c1k/article.php <table width="100%" border="0"><tr><td width="9%" align="center" valign="top"><a href="http://www.eriegaynews.com/news/article.php?recordid=201206rallyagainsthate&sourceid=4&sourcereason=RSS Feed"><img src="http://www.eriegaynews.com/images/GregRabbSmall.jpg" ></a></td><td valign="top">It&rsquo;s a known fact that same-sex marriage is good for tourism.
