Rejected petition No to equal marriage
More details
Equal marriage should not be put through.
Marriage is between a man and a woman and is totally between those two genders only. Marriage is the joining of two people into holy matrimony not two people just getting together and going official because of love.
Marriage is more than just love it is a very holy (even if conducted in a registry office) and spiritual institution joining one man and one woman together.
Existing civil partnerships for same-sex couples is perfectly applicable and allows for two homosexuals who love each other to be officially together.
We call on Her Majesty's Government not to bring forward equal marriage proposals
