There has never been one unified religious opinion on anything, no matter how much brickheads like Pat Buchanan might like to pretend that their views are the only legitimate ones. Gay men and lesbian women are only the latest in line. Many religious people once hated blacks, women, and Jews on religious grounds. You would have a hard time finding a minister who would defend slavery nowdays, though. Because, as with any organization made up of humans, religions can at times make mistakes.
Churches can be wrong , and churches can change their minds.
