same sex marriage

[Leanne]

Well, here you can be married by a judge, or random person with a mail order certificate. And you need a marriage license from the state before even the church can marry you. Not all marriages are religious practices, and why would you want a sacrament from a church that you disagree with on morality issues, which are the most important part of religion in the first place?

Exactly. Whether a church allows it or not is almost entirely irrelevant to the debate. I'm already going to hell for using contraception, apparently

Hooray for Gosford -- one of my favourite towns for many reasons, but this is the latest.
