Awwwww.  That's beautiful. Finally a minister willing to tell the state to stay out of religious affairs. The state is only supposed to recognize their right to practice their religion, which includes same-sex marriage. The state should not be in the business of deciding religious dogma, with the caveat, as long as no one else is hurt in the process. Besides, why should any man have the right to marry any woman, while any woman cannot? And vice versa?
This too shall pass.
