Re: Gay Marriage
Children forced to become part of a single sex relationship will definitely grow up tainted with this stigma. These children, however acquired, by adoption or by 'rentawomb.com' for 'male' couples or for the dykes, dickvandyke.co.uk, do not have a choice as to the gender of their parents. conversely, children born to heterosexual parents don't have a choice either, but it's what affects the child when it becomes aware that something is not quite right about the situation. Picture the scene when an unruly child is threatened with the age old phrase.'wait 'til your father gets home' ?? confusion or what?!! Who gets to be Mother in these situations? I despair.

Re: Gay Marriage
I saw two Lesbians on TV last night, going to get married, [ the BBC seems to be actively promoting it ]
Both very butch and grossly overweight, like something out of Mary Bashems in Sydney.
I am glad they are Lesbians, they would have ruined a guy if they got hitched to him. Keep em seperate.
One had her 18 year old son to `Give her away` you would have to give her away , you certainly could not have sold her.

.Hi Gilly,
my neice is "married" to her lady friend, [ not happy about it, ]they have adopted a young boy, unforunately a little handycapped, so at least better than a Childrens Home,
I heard him say `Mummy Jean` and` Mummy Mary`, so that must be the way they do it. [names changed.
Cheers
Brian.

Re: Gay Marriage
Well it appears some amongst the gay community are still not happy , and they have been urging gay Church of England priests to perforn ceremonies in Church of england Churches . This is one problem that was called give one inch and take one yard , Why cannot they be happy ( Gay ) with what they have so far

Re: Gay Marriage
I'm not religious,far from it but,The Bible clearly states "Man shall not lie with Man as with Woman. It is an abomination in the eyes of the Lord." How does the Gay Clergy and others get around this one. I'd love to here them explaining it to God,

Re: Gay Marriage
If Mr Jones Marries Mr Smith, does one of them change his name to the other,
like Mr and Mr Jones. or do they still keep their own names.????
Or Miss Jones marries Miss Smith do they become Mrs and Mrs Jones.
How bleddy daft is that. it is just a Pantomime.
Cheers

Well Rob I must say I didn't think I would get such a response some of the posts have surprised me some I was expecting. But like it or not 3 gay couples married today and I have no objections good luck to them. As for the catholic church I often wondered were that saying {Bashing The Bishop } Come from Terry.

Re: Gay Marriage
#48- I think we should all be careful, during the 'Pantomine' season, not to be yelling'' he's/she's behind you'' and i think it's going to be even more confusing for the children to understand just who the Principal Boy really is.

Re: Gay Marriage
Cameron has been stongly promoting this homosexual marriage,
I suggest that he spends more time Promoting Britain and getting us back on our feet.
Merkel went to China and came back with a Five Billion Dollar order for planes and parts. More employment for the Germans. Cameron is excited Homosexuals can get married. Can he not get his priorities right?
