The Greenss continually disrupted the previous government with all manner of stunts on gay marriage.

There has been an election since where the subject was promoted by the Watermelons whose vote suffered as a result. They are on the way out anyway, which is only to be expected for a protest party that markets itself as being there for the environment, but pursues social changes instead.

It is time to accept the democratic decision and move on. There are much more important matters that are begging for attention.

".....There are much more important matters that are begging for attention."

You are so right!

Things like the Coalition's rortathon.

Things like Hockey suddenly declaring the economy's in good shape with the AAA rating being what matters.

Things like the Environment Minister sourcing his climate expertise from Wikipedia.

You know, those sort of things.....

Lol Poirot : ) you are so right.'

Is Mise, if the bible tells us that some god told them to do it, then it is fiction!
Everyone cherry picks what bits they like from these religious books, and that's fine, as long as we don't take any of it as 'gospel'...

Some Heterosexual people may believe that homosexual sex is 'un-natural', but I doubt that the god who supposedly made them as they are would agree they were 'flawed', wouldn't you agree?

Even if the very thought of anything gay made you feel ill, how would them being able to legally marry really adversely affect you?

Suseonline,
If we ignore the view of a Creator, then natural human evolution tells us that children can only be born from man and a woman. That is the real purpose of marriage to have a family and provide for and protect that family. That children need their biological parents is the best society.

Evolution identifies the bowel is to excrete waste, and is not built for sex, otherwise the anus of gay men would have evolved differently. That is why practicing homosexual men have high levels of bowel rupture and contact viruses excreted by the bowel.

The arguments for homosexuals being registered by the State is weak and has no purpose other that to fly in the face with a legal document against those who believe in the sanctity of marriage between a man and a woman. To say Homosexuals are born that way is a not supported by science as many wishing to be married to the same sex already have children from a previous marriage to a person of the opposite gender.

Suse,

Talking about Bible stories an such like.

Resident Tea party thicky, Sarah Palin, while promoting her new book on Fox and Friends, today apparently declared that Jesus used to celebrate Easter with his disciples.

"In an interview with Fox and Friends this morning, the former Alaska governor promoted her new book about the left's "war on Christmas" and argued that all Christian holidays should return to the traditional versions practiced by Jesus.

"It makes me so gosh darn angry," Palin explained. "The liberal left in this country has targeted Christian holidays and is trying to secularize them right out of existence.

"When Jesus celebrated Easter with his disciples there were no Easter bunnies or egg hunts. There were no Easter sales at department stores or parades in the street. Easter was a special time of prayer and Christian activism.

"Jesus would gather all the townspeople around and would listen to their stories about the meaning of Easter in their lives. Then he would teach them how to love one another, how to protest Roman abortion clinics and how to properly convert homosexuals.

"You can't even do things like that these days without getting called out by some wacko left-wing human rights group. Christians had more freedom under Roman rule than we do now in our own country! We need to return Easter back to the way it was when Jesus was alive."

The host attempted to correct her.......

""Well, Brian, Easter celebrates, you know, sticking it to all the liberal lefties out there who want to be taking our guns and our freedom....."

etc....

Not much more one can say about that.

Good post, Poirot, Sarah Palin and our Suseonline seem to have much in common, historically speaking.
