Same-sex couples living in the UK already can marry in civil ceremonies, but three political parties, Labour, Liberal Democrats and Green Party, have made plans to allow same-sex couples to get married in church as well. However, not everyone is happy with these plans.
Andrea Williams, of the Christian Legal Centre, says ideas like same-sex marriage assault the fundamentals of a modern society, where marriage can only take place between a man and a woman.
From the Nats, a spokewoman said they recognise all the different views on this topic, and propose a discussion on the topic.
Luckily, not all churches share the same opinion marriage is for straight couples only.

Although I think the idea of marriage should be between a man and a woman only is discrimination, I myself would not want to get married by someone who is forced to perform the marriage. Someone's marriage should be the happiest day of his life, and thus all who are involved should be happy as well. I myself would simply look for someone happy to marry me, despite my sexual preference.
Still, the fact that there still are a lot of people opposed to gay marriage is a serious matter, as it is very likely some gay people will have to move in order to get in a gay-friendly environment.
Hi Dylan I agree with you on this (of course). Everyone will be dancing, smiling and be wearing yellow pants on your wedding day! "different (view) " stated in singular form should be plural (+s). Furthermore, I could be mistaking, but I find the sentence: 'Luckily, not all churches share the same opinion marriage is for straight couples only.' awkwardly phrased.

This is an interesting article (even though it comes from the Sun!). It may be suitable for a speakers' corner debate.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenJust watch the use of the word assault in your summary.
Kind regards,

Will do!

Golly, I sure am interested in how this will end up for both parties. Good article and a dynamic summary. I have never read a full summary or essay you've written and this makes me want to read more.

Cute of you to write about this article, considering the fact that you are gay. It is a nice article and I agree with your point of view. this should be brought to the table for a debate!

I think you have a good point of view. It is personal for you, you are not objective in this case and that makes it interesting for me. It is a nice article and I also really like your style of writing. WANT TO SEE MORE.
