>> I think it’s a way for government to force churches to marry same-sex couples whether they want to or not.
Exactly.
Oddly, this story was sent to me by an old friend from my teaching days.
He is gay - not camp or outrageous, just gay - has lived with his partner for 25 years and HE is totally outraged by it.
He thinks government should stay out of the bedroom. Marriage is defined by the Church and has no need to be licenced or regulated by man at all.
He put it much harsher than that, but I have been warned about my language on here before, so you’ll forgive me for not posting his exact words. Suffice it to say I expected my laptop screen to burst into flames.
