When I cite people who are against homosexual "marriage" on religious grounds I am not referring to fundamentalist "bible thumpers" as you all seem to be suggesting.....I mean ordinary Christians who probably dont read the bible from one years end to the other.
Ordinary folk with ordinary lives, they like to get married in church, have a couple of kids and try to bring them up to be good citizens......There are dozens of them round here,although they don't go to church every Sunday, they have a set of beliefs...rules for living...traditions....call it what you will, but these are the people who believe they are being trampled on, their beliefs trashed, their voices silenced to accomodate what they see as a very strange but vociferous minority, a minority who use every means at their disposal to normalise their lifestyle.

These people, my neighbours, are not religious nuts(although you all like to paint them as such), they are ordinary folk who can see no reason to have their values re-defined to accomodate a lifestyle that not so long ago was illegal and would still be illegal if the present health statistics had been available.
