Allegations of harm: Unsupportive of homosexaulity causes suicide

Throughout the fake gay marriage debate - one technique was constantly used by supporters of homosexual marriage - If you call homosexuality a sin, wrong you will cause harm to teenagers who will then suicide. The purpose of this argument is to shut down any and all opposition to the idea that homosexuality is good for society. People were abused, posters torn-down by those who pushed gay marriage. No debate No questions No arguments and if you do open your mouth you are a bigot.  There are many ways arguments can go wrong .

The sanctions — essentially limiting participation in Anglican Communion affairs — do not call for any change in policy by the American church.
