Is anybody surprised that the bible says absolutely nothing about homosexual marriage?

Update:

It equally condemns any sex before marriage. Yet none of you have Christians have been prevented from marrying.

Your hypocrisy is apparent to everyone.

Update 2:

Esther, were you a virgin before marriage? Or are you a two-faced hypocrite?

Update 3:

Paul B, Your ignorance of your own bible is astounding:

    Aside from your question reeking of arrogant ignorance, your "additional details" are completely foolish and illogical. The best suggestion I can offer you is to actually READ Scripture.

    EDIT:

    I can assure you, I know and understand Scripture MUCH better than you. And it's evidenced in your asking a stupid question.

    No, they knew what Marriage was in the first century.

    Surely you don't expect the Bible to be the source to every moral truth in the world? It is a wonderful text, but it is not the final source for Christianity. Jesus set up a Church and gave it authority for things that his teachings or other Scripture did not cover.

    LOOK AGAIN! The Bible states that "marriage" is a word God made and defined as "between a man and a woman"! And that Everyone that is homosexual of bisexual go to hell! Because they are being so against GOD!

    It says homosexual behavior is wrong, so that covers marriage. (Sodom and Gomorrah anyone?, city full of homosexuals)

    Marriage is suppose to be between a man and woman, two of the same sex is not marriage even if the immoral government says so.

    The Bible says that homosexuality is a sin and abomination. I think that pretty much clears it up. If God is against homosexuality, then I think it's pretty safe to say he's against homosexual marriage. Nice try.

    If homosexuality is put on the same level as a human having intercourse with an animal, why would it say anything about marriage.

    The bible doesn't say anything about marrying a beast either.

    Not really, back in the day they had less luxury than we do, so the only legal precedent would be related to breeding and spreading of descendants, anything else would be limited to the little leisure time they had.

    No, since God calls homosexuality a sin, He figures the intelligent person will figure the rest out.

    That is not surprising, since homosexuals were stoned to death. How could they marry if they were dead?
