Why do they or anyone for that matter seek approval from anyone or indeed anything?
Do what thy will shall be the whole of the law.

They don't seek the approval of anyone in the church, so they won't be concerned whatever the church has to say on the matter. But the church should share their opinion respectfully.
Sorted.
The church has shared its opinion respectfully. Others have shared theirs, too. But since this doesn't directly affect the church I'm wondering why its opinion should count for more than anyone else's?They don't seek the approval of anyone in the church, so they won't be concerned whatever the church has to say on the matter.

And they would be wrong, wouldn't they? The church cannot claim that we do not know God's will but at the same time say they are representing His will.they will be saying they are speaking for the god and therefore bigger opinion.
Yes goochta. Do what God says and you won't go far wrong.

Your faith icon is a cross. Don't you know the basics of the faith you claim to profess?

Did you have any gay friends?
Ah, welcome back Shouty ManAlmighty God has made his commands on this issue clear in the Holy Bible. You have been warned.
The problem is that you are insisting that your interpretation is the correct one where other Christians would disagree with you.
I believe they should have made changes to make civil partnerships on a same legal footing with traditional marriage as this would have been the fairest situation and result for all and would not have trampled on the rights of the majority. When the coalition government receives its order from Brussles though it has to act pretty quickly.
I've said this once and I'll say it again.
If civil partnerships offer the same benefits as marriage why not simply scrap marriage altogether and offer everyone -gay or straight- civil partnerships?
This would be the `fairest`solution.
It's the most sensible. Government and the civil authorities perform civil partnerships; churches, mosques and the rest do marriages. Probably makes sense.
Fine, but each is open to anyone. Yes?
One Liberal Democrat MP who has read the bill also notes this that it is anything but equal, and this is an MP on the left who would probably vote for it if there weren't so many flaws with it. I highly recommend you read this:
