Some people don't like Gay people and have to tell other people they don't agree with Gay marriage.
Strange but true.

Jesus there's some sick bastards about.
Really? Coldplay?
Thats sick.
I thought the issue was the church refusing to carry out the ceremony, the legal sides just a matter of time isn't it?

Good to see some well-reasoned thought and tolerance here (Dyna's post was particularly well thought out :roll: )
What a vocal minority group of homosexuals are pushing for here is not equality; they already have complete equality. If they wish to get married, they can; if they wish to have the same rights in a same-sex civil partnership, they can.
A married couple is a husband and a wife. Sorry, but that's a fact, like an African is from Africa, or a piano is a stringed musical instrument. Demanding "Gay" "marriage" is like calling a spade a drinking vessel; you're simply redefining something so that in the end it completely loses its meaning through vagueness.
It's very true that the homosexual lobby and their supporters are some of the most intolerant groups out there - put your head above the parapet to disagree with anything they say and the thoughtless zombie lynch mobs come screaming after you, no matter how logical, well reasoned and non-aggressive your point or stance may be.

I think most people have adjusted beyond that view, if they ever firmly held it. A married couple is, for me, any couple who consider themselves a married couple.

That's part of my point though; I may consider myself to be an African, but it doesn't make me one; for that I'd have to redefine African to a point where it didn't actually mean anything!
Homosexuals may be civil partners and enjoy the same legal rights as a married couple but by definition they cannot be husband and wife. To insist otherwise is foolish, no matter how unpopular it may be to say so.
I don't feel particulary most of the anti's are infact anti gay as the we must have it claim.
I feel for many the grudge is that for nearly over 2000 years the accepted way of things is that the christian church does not allow gay marriage and a very small and vocal minority are insisting they drop the beliefs of billions for the sake of a few.
Lets be honest if someone from mtb came in here insisted the 1997 section MUST have 2012 bikes in the 1997 section people would be royally pissed and so it is with the church.
Can same sex couples get married, yes. Can same sex couples get married in churches, yes. Does some non donominational churches carry out gay marriages, of course. So can gay couples marry? yes but not in a catholic church.
We all have restrictions in life and somethings we would wish different but they will always be the same.
I would be interested however instead of the usual christian church bashing, in hearing from those from other religions such as islam,buddhism, sikhs, jews etc on their faiths views on same sex marriage.
