Argentina Legalizes Same-Sex Marriage; Christians Are Now "Crying for Argentina"

Argentina has become the first country in Latin America to legalize same-sex marriage, the PBS website reports today (July 20, 2010).

The Catholic Church in Argentina -- as well as evangelical Christians and Mormons -- protested the new law.

It grants gay married couples all of the same legal protections as heterosexual couples, including the right to adopt children and to inherit wealth.

You may recall seeing the popular play and movie titled "Evita," with its famous song -- "Don't Cry for Me Argentina." Indeed, many Christians are now crying for Argentina, because of that nation's violation of the Christian interpretation of marriage.
