Country Singer Carrie Underwood Cites Her "Christian Faith" in Gay Marriage Endorsement


TheBlaze.com:
Singer Carrie Underwood is making headlines after coming out in support of same-sex marriage. The country and pop singer, who was raised a Baptist, announced her support for gay nuptials during an interview with Britain’s The Independent. Underwood told the publication that she believes everyone deserves to love whomever he or she chooses, citing her faith as the basis for her reasoning.

“As a married person myself, I don’t know what it’s like to be told I can’t marry somebody I love, and want to marry,” the singer told the outlet. “I can’t imagine how that must feel. I definitely think we should all have the right to love, and love publicly, the people that we want to love.”

Underwood also told the publication that she and her husband, pro-hocker player Mike Fisher, attend a “gay-friendly” non-denominational church. The songstress went on to say that God wants Christians to love others.

“It’s not about setting rules, or [saying], ‘Everyone has to be like me.’ No. We’re all different. That’s what makes us special. We have to love each other and get on with each other. It’s not up to me to judge anybody,” she added.

Already, Underwood has received the praise of the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD), a gay rights group. In a release addressing the singer’s comments, the organization applauded her, writing, “GLAAD commends Carrie Underwood for supporting marriage equality and rooting it in her faith.”
Of course, calling yourself a "Christian" doesn't mean you actually are one--the biggest hint here being that Ms. Underwood goes to a "gay-friendly", and "nondenominational church" (indeed, a lot of those are spouting about across America, twisting God's words for their own personal and immoral agenda). Then too, using Christianity to justify support for unGodly behavior, when in no shape or form does the Bible support homosexuality (our bodies alone, as shaped by God, tell us that) is complete and utter BS and shows what little understanding Underwood has for the Biblical word.

    Yet, I can find any number of seminary trained theologians and pastors who would say that you are absolutely incorrect in your undertanding of scripture. I bet you always know better than everyone else though, don't you?
