Yet again the British government seek to push their country further and further into the moral abyss.
It was with sadness I learnt that the British government are seeking to make Gay "Marriage" legal.
Cardinal Keith O'Brien, Primate of Scotland, said that the "grotesque" plans would "shame the United Kingdom in the eyes of the world" if implemented.
Archbishop Vincent Nichols, leader of the Church in England and Wales said changing the nature of marriage would be a "profoundly radical step" that would reduce its effectiveness and significance.
"There are many reasons why people get married. For most couples, there is an instinctive understanding that the stability of a marriage provides the best context for the flourishing of their relationship and for bringing up their children.
"Society recognises marriage as an important institution for these same reasons: to enhance stability in society and to respect and support parents in the crucial task of having children and bringing them up as well as possible."
This liberal agenda is being fought in many Christian countries across the world and I proud of the Church for being the main vocal critic of such repugnant plans.
For any Christian to even consider supporting such a divergence is in direct contrast to God's law as laid down in both the Book of Genesis and the Gospel of Mark.
From time immemorial Marriage has been the union of a man and woman under God, it has never been and should never be allowed to become a tool to advance the liberal homosexual agenda.
It has always been Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve. For if we follow in that path of decay how long before people want to be allowed to "marry" their animals and lay with them.
Marriage is a religious institution and once which many in the liberal agenda mistakenly believe can be used to further their own ends. So, in that vein in order to protect the institution of marriage I would seek the state to remove itself from the religious affairs of the various religions.
Most of the liberals seeking to advance this notion of Gay "Marriage" also seek further separation of Church and State so let’s see if the practise what they preach, pardon the pun.
I would see Marriage return to the preserve of the religions only and let the state recognise any union it wishes through civil partnerships.
That would mean that married couples would be recognised as civil partners under the law with the same rights and responsibilities as all homosexual couples.
Isn't that the equality they are seeking? Or is it, as I suspect, they are seeking to undermine the religious institution of marriage?
