John Boswell - Irish Times

The very idea of a Christian homosexual marriage seems incredible. Yet after a twelve year search of Catholic and Orthodox church archives Yale history professor John Boswell has discovered that a type of Christian homosexual “marriage” did exist as late as the 18th century. Contrary to myth, Christianity’s concept of marriage has not been set in stone since the days of Christ, but has evolved as a concept and as a ritual.

So yet again we see evidence of 'modern' christianity rewriting their tenets to suit the mood. This should prove entertaining for those still engaged in this discussion.
