My Comment:  Levitucus 18:22  ‘Do not lie with a man as one lies with a woman, that is detestable. (The King James version calls it an Abomination)   Ephesians 5:3 ‘But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed, because these are improper for God’s Holy people.’

Democratic Governor Mark Dayton has said he will sign the bill on Tuesday. The law would take effect August 1.

Minnesota will join Iowa as the only other Midwestern state to permit gay marriage and the first to do so through legislation. Iowa has permitted same-sex marriage since 2009 under a state Supreme Court order.
