Gwyneth Paltrow defends homosexuality

The 38-year-old actress is a strong supporter of equal marriage rights regardless of sexual preference. Writing in her Goop newsletter, she said, 'A few months ago, in the heat of the tragic teen suicides that came about from intolerance of homosexuality, I saw a man on television who was apologizing for wishing death on gays from his Facebook page.

'This member of an Arkansas school board was contrite for the violence in his words, but maintained that his values pertaining to homosexuality would remain, as he felt homosexuality was condemned in the Bible.

'This concept, while foreign to me, is interesting as it used to justify so much judgment and separation in our society.

'When my daughter came home from school one day saying that a classmate had two mummies, my response was, 'Two mummies? How lucky is she?!'

'What does it actually say in the Bible that will cause some people to be upset by my line of thinking?'
