Two man can not produce, neither can two women. If this were not true, "Be fruitful and multiply would not have been mentioned at all in Creation. Better yet, if everyone were gay, again, how would the world continue???!!! Thank God for the advances in technology that has enabled couples (heterosexual) to have children in the event of "INFERTILITY" not just because one decided to be with the same sex but wants to enjoy a benefit that come to heterosexual couples. If this was ok with God, why didn't same sex marriages take place in the bible??? Adam would have been placed with Steve(make-up name) instead of Eve, Abraham could have married charles(make-up name) instead of Sarah, etc. If this was ok, God would have made a way for couples to reproduce in the event of a same sex hookup. But there was a reason he did not. 1) Genesis 19:4-7 The city men desired same sex relations and lot called this out a "wickedness. Had this been acceptable he would not have condemned the behavior and offered women. 2) Proverbs 18:22 He who finds a wife..."He" clearly refers to a man, and "wife" clearly refers to a woman. 3) Mark 10: 11-12 Two scenarios present: husband divorcing wife, woman divorcing her husband, If same sex marriage were an option, Jesus, who's speaking in this passage, would have added a third scenario 4) Ephesians 5:33 Again, two scenarios present: Man loving wife, woman respecting husband, no third scenario present (man/man or woman/woman) Sexuality is a gift from God, between people(specifically should be married couples) who can reproduce together.

2) Proverbs 18:22 He who finds a wife…”He” clearly refers to a man, and “wife” clearly refers to a woman.

3) Mark 10: 11-12 Two scenarios present: husband divorcing wife, woman divorcing her husband, If same sex marriage were an option, Jesus, who’s speaking in this passage, would have added a third scenario

4) Ephesians 5:33 Again, two scenarios present: Man loving wife, woman respecting husband, no third scenario present (man/man or woman/woman)
