Obama Links Opposition To Gay Rights To Bible Text











LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Senator Barack Obama says Christians who oppose gay rights are elevating one passage in the Bible's book of Romans over the Sermon on the Mount.

Obama and most of the other Democratic presidential candidates appeared last night at a forum sponsored by the Human Rights Campaign, a gay rights group.

Obama, Senator Hillary Clinton, and John Edwards said they don't support legalizing gay marriage, but do support civil unions that confer all the same rights of marriage.

Obama said churches shouldn't determine what legal rights are conferred, and government shouldn't require churches to approve of same-sex couples.
