Rejected petition Say NO to Gay Marriage
More details
The institution of marriage as defined by law currently is between one man and one woman.
This has provided a legal framework for a man and a woman to raise a family in a stable environment.
Changing this could have consequences that become unalterable. Churches will inevitably be forced to hold marriage services against their beliefs, under Equility Laws. This could begin further erosion of our culture and way of life.
