IN response to last week’s letters from Mr James Cadle and Mr Adrian Waters, I would like to point out to the two gentlemen that at this moment in time we have a monarch who still practises the Christian faith.
Marriage in a church is more than a partnership; it’s a religious undertaking both spiritual and physical between two people.
The loving couple normally, at least one, has and are practising Christians and very often supported the church financially, and taken part in services, etc. The church and its clergy have no objection to the love of one man to another as long as it is not physical.
All people have freedom of choice. Why would gay people want to choose a church? They can marry in civil partnership on a boat, tent, hall, mansion house, on the beach.
On Christianity dictating the laws in the country it’s been done for at least 1,700 years. Well done the Rev Peter Simpson, bless you.
