(Des Moines, IA) “Gay marriage is wrong…It’s an abomination that was sent here by Satan to destroy opposite marriage and our whole opposite way of life.” Every Sunday, that’s the message Pastor John Jenkins would drive home to his congregation.

But after his beloved Iowa became Gayowa, he knew that his sermon was just not going to cut it. He had to act and act boldly. “So, I decided to get gay married. That way I could show how gay marriage kills opposite marriage....Yea, I know. It was pretty genius.”

So after doing some research, Pastor Jenkins slid into some tight leather pants, snapped on a leather vest and sashayed on down to the Blue Oyster to exhibit some vicious dance moves and land that gay husband.

Jenkins soon hooked Greg Dowd, a 31 year-old construction worker, and 48 hours later, they were gay married by Greg’s Native American friend. And at the wedding, Greg’s other friends - a police officer, Navy ensign and cowboy - performed an emotional rendition of Macho Man. “It was nice, nice and dangerous,” said Jenkins.

So dangerous that Jenkins’ wife, Patty, immediately served him with divorce papers. “And that was that, game, set, match," said Jenkins. "I had done it. I had proved that gay marriage kills opposite marriage.”

With his case won, Jenkins tried then to get his opposite life back. That proved to be a bigger challenge than expected. You see, Jenkins had expected his wife to divorce him, the police to file bigamy charges and even his church to suspend him; but what he had not expected, was to fall in love.

“Damn it, I know it’s wrong, but I love that rugged bastard,” said Jenkins about Greg. “And I know I’m going to go to hell for that love, but I don’t care.”

Jenkins also doesn't care who knows his story. “Please tell people what happened to me. Please tell people the true price of gay marriage. And please tell people that Greg and I are registered at Pottery Barn…thanks.”
