| Message | "The GAY's may do as they please, although they can't marry." If they can't get married, then they can't do as they please can they? "Marrying is a religious act." Indeed it is. That is why a secular government, such as ours, should have no involvement in marriage whatsoever. Let the churches decide for themselves. |
