Marriage Is Unique
On this one point we agree. Marriage is unique. It is a union of two people in love, for life, to the exclusion of all others. A commitment upon which one can build a home and a family. We just think it should be available to all who want that commitment.
~ Marriage equality also means that if one half of a married couple changes sex, they can stay married - unlike now, where they have to void the marriage and go through a civil partnership. ~

Signed it. I think marriage equality is something that will happen sooner rather then later, all this huffing and puffing the right wingers are doing right now will probably just alienate more people from them. All polls i've seen bar one have said the majority support it.

Ah yes, that poll by Catholic Voices, yes? Well, Pink News has something interesting to say about that one:

But yeah, the right-wingers are getting noisier about it - probably 'cause they know they'll lose and they're panicking :P
