"I do not think the referendum was "a waste of time"
"That is all that is achieved by all the expense, disruption and hoopla of the great referendum."
!If you are so in favour of gay marriage, why have you opposed it on every issue,"
I specified your (now continuing on the other thread) opposition to a verdict from a judge you claim doesn't know her job
You continue to denigrate the result of the referendum by describing its achievements as "That is all that is achieved by all the expense, disruption and hoopla of the great referendum."
You reduce what as been won as only having achieved (non-church) same-sex marriage, when even the Catholic hierarchy are running round like headless chickens at the damage it has done to their grip on the minds of the population and their political influence - a world-shattering achievement in itself.
If you support same-sex marriage, your support is the same support the rope gives the hanged man.
Compared to the response that has been forthcoming from this result from within and outside Ireland, your support is questionable, to say the least.
How do you feel about the fact that the church no longer holds sway over people'd lives - or perhaps you still think it never did?
I suggest you memorise what Derrick has written for future reference - too late for it to be any use to you on this one.
