He must have been a bad dude...especially since he said that "what I would not do, that I do." Couldn't help himself, I don't suppose. |
Are you ok?

All of these would depend upon the situation.
But none of these are an occasion where the sin itself is celebrated. You attend a wedding to celebrate an event. The joining together of two people. That's the sole purpose of the event. The joining together of two people. Attend a birthday party where these two people happened to be present? That would be more of a parallel to the examples you gave. An event where sin happens to be present.
I really can't think of another example that would be exactly the same. There's just a difference between sin being present, and an event that is geared solely towards celebrating a sinful act.

Re: Was it necessary to repeal DADT?
Okay, DA - the Muslim wedding thing.
There is nothing sinful about a man and a woman marrying each other (unless they're already married to someone else or some such thing) regardless of their religion, their race, their nationality, their economic status. Their religious belief is a completely separate issue. But the fact of them marrying each other - nothing wrong with that.

My thoughts exactly.

What difference does it make if it's being "celebrated"? Is a wedding a "celebration" anyway? Personally, I wouldn't see it that way. But no matter....if the principle is, you being present in the commission of sin is the act of issuing approval, shouldn't you run when sin is being committed since your presence represents approval? Whether or not you know in advance doesn't seem to matter. I mean...if someone sprung a porn film on you at a party, wouldn't you need to leave or would turning your head be enough?

Not commission of a sin, celebration of a sin. Joining in the celebration of a sin. And yes, a wedding is a celebration.
And yeah, if I was at a party and someone put on a porn film, I'd leave because I don't want to see or hear that.
I think we're stretching the point a little bit.
