Two male witches have tied the knot in the UK’s first pagan same-sex marriage.

Tom Lanting, 34, and Iain Robertson, 39, who have been together for 12 years, were married in a ceremony in the 16th-century vaulted cellars of Marlin’s Wynd in Edinburgh.

The couple, who live in the Scottish capital, are both described as being hedge witches, who use herbal remedies to deal with medical and spiritual ailments.

The ceremony encompassed a number of pagan traditions, including handfasting, where their hands were bound together, the sharing of mead and jumping the broom.

I assumed all “same-sex weddings” were pagan.

It is good to see the freaks starting to screw around with the witches for a while. Maybe they’ll give the normal, decent people a break for a while. At least until the next pedo-judge decides that banning homosexual “marriage” is “unconstitutional”.

Fairly pretentious of them to claim or believe that they are the first such “ceremony” in King Arthur’s Kingdom.

Ya gotta hand it to them. They tied the knot and honestly asked Satan to witness it.

As opposed to the same-sexers who have Christian ministers do it thereby forcing God to witness their shameful act.

Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and caldron bubble.
Fillet of a fenny snake,
In the caldron boil and bake;
Eye of newt, and toe of frog,
Wool of bat, and tongue of dog,
Adder's fork, and blind-worm's sting,
Lizard's leg, and owlet's wing,
For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.

Shouldn’t these two delightful creatures be referred to as, Warlocks?

I just want to be accurate...

Handfasting? I think they meant “handFISTing.”.

And jumping the broom? Do these alleged adults realize how utterly ludicrous they appear in trying to be “different?”

Witches are female.

Warlocks are male.

Ok, so, what are you saying? These two, ‘males’, should be referred to as Warlocks? I am confused...

No,no, no. In order to be a ‘Warlock’, you first need to be male. Witch works better here, and it is, after all, their description of themselves.
