美国基督教长老会承认同性婚姻(图)

美国长老会的同性恋牧师保罗·莫里(Paul Mowry)
淡蓝网3月19日讯：经过长达十年的辩论，美国基督教长老会决定修改教会宪章，正式
承认同性婚姻。
该教会最高立法机构在去年6月已经通过相关议案，但仍需171个教区的领导机构批准。
17日公布的投票结果显示，多数教区赞成将宪章中的婚姻定义从“一男一女之间”修改
为“两人之间，传统为一男一女”。
这一改变将于今年6月21日正式生效，之后美国长老会的神职人员可以在自愿的前提下
，为同性婚姻合法地区的同性伴侣主持婚礼。另外，曾因主持同性婚礼被教会处分的神
职人员，其处罚记录将被撤销。
支持婚姻平等的牧师布莱恩·艾利森(Brian Ellison)对上述决定表示欢迎，同时呼吁
教会成员求同存异、保持团结。
美国长老会拥有180多万信众，是北美地区最大的长老教会。

Cannabis for Bronchodilation
According to Symonds, cannabis can act as a bronchodilator—a medication
that opens the airways of the lungs by relaxing bronchial muscles. That's
not a suggestion to smoke a fat blunt if you're already fighting bronchial
irritation. But if you're clogged up with phlegm, using a tabletop vaporizer
to smoothly inhale flower with a high concentration of alpha-pinene—a
known bronchodilator—could support easier breathing.
