This thread is ridiculous.
The church can dictate who gets married in the church. Thats great, but to have people from the church trying to dictate who gets married outside of the church is ludicrous.
You can't have special rights to practice what you believe within your church and at the same time take those rights away from people outside of it.
Not allowing a person to be married because of sexual orientation is discrimination. Most countries strive for equality and eliminate discrimination, not legalize it. Let the church do what it wants, but the government should be allowing gay marriages regardless.
