Subject: RE: BS: I am not perfect after all
Perhaps I should have explained Ian.
When we decided to get married, my fiance wanted a church wedding, although my fiance was a church member, I being an Atheist was not.
The minister told us that as I was not a member of the Church of Scotland he would refuse to marry us in church.
I was a little pissed off, but we were married in an hotel by a minister friend of my wife's.
On reflexion I now feel that he was correct, if folks want to use the church for "hatches, matches and despatches" they should respect the traditions of the institution.

Perhaps if unbelievers had the media power of homosexuals we could have been married in church...:0)

Tres fin.
