You are entitled to have an opinion and express yourself however you wish irene, I thought it was the LGBT christians that wanted the changes made, so they could marry in church?
Why that suggests atheists and agnostics are exempt from comment I don't know...

I said the same last night on this issue, nobody can or should change an existing religion.
Politics has no place meddling, however everyone is entitled to an opinion, I am not a christian but that should not mean that my view on this means any less.
As a democracy everyone is equal regardless of what their beliefs are.

Yes they have, and some are more tolerant than others, fair play to them.
However, why should westminster stamp on those who are not, it's not a faith then is it?
it becomes an enforced regime.

No I believe they become less discriminatory. A majority of congregants are for this change just as they are for women priests.

This has a Westminster stamp on ( as far as I understand) to prevent C of E and church of Wales being sued. Other Christian churches can opt in if they wish.
