YouTube Description
as posted by the channel"The nation’s largest Presbyterian denomination voted on Tuesday evening to change their definition of marriage to “two people,” cementing the group’s formal embrace of same-sex marriage.
The move ended decades of debate and a voting process that began last June, when the Presbyterian Church (USA), or PC(USA), passed two overtures about same-sex marriage at their national gathering. The first, a so-called “Authoritative Interpretation,” immediately allowed pastors to begin marrying LGBT couples in areas where it was legal. But a second overture, which passed with 71 percent of the vote at the assembly, was more expansive, and set into motion a denomination-wide process of altering the group’s official understanding of marriage. The measure sought to replace a phrase in the church’s constitution that defined marriage as “a civil contract between a woman and a man” with a sentence reading “marriage involves a unique commitment between two people, traditionally a man and a woman, to love and support each other for the rest of their lives.”
