Christianity is split on the issue. Some denominations, including major ones, do permit same-sex marriage - - others do not.
Evangelical churches and the Roman Catholic church are united in their opposition to same-sex marriage.
Other denominations, including Presbyterians, some Lutherans, some Episcopalians, Quakers, some Mennonites, Unitarian Universalists and many independent churches, especially in urban areas with large gay communities, welcome same-sex couples and honor their marriages.
The United Protestant Church of France ("EPUF"), for example, has authorized its clergy to officiate at same-sex marriages.
