For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.AOG, we can only pray that God grants the great and the good of the CoE the grace to do the right thing. It would tax the judgement of Solomon; be considered a hypocrite by the Godless if you show a humane face and try to accommodate gay members of the congregation, or follow slavishly the OT teachings and turn your back on them.
Bazwill run "most of the lefties on here describe anybody that wont bow to their ideology on anything as a bigot amongst other things"
As opposed to all you righties who label anyone who doesn't agree with you as "Leftie"
You may need reminding that all gay people have heterosexual parents and being "exposed" to that didn't make them straight.
Being gay isn't a choice, it isn't a life style, its a way of life and should be seen as such. What you righties keep on about isn't rational, its a democratic right that should be extended to anyone. If churches want to be exempt let them.

Progeny are a side issue to the gay-marriage question.
Co-habitees can benefit under Inheritance Laws by dint of opting to get married; that they choose not to is a matter of choice for them. And if they decide not to, they would be best advised to make sure that their inheritance issues are dealt with by taking legal advice to make sure their financial affairs are in order.
As I said, the gay-marriage issue is about far more than inheritance matters.

I'm maybe looking at this from the worng angle. As far as I'm concerned marriage is about friendship and partnership with someone you love, you can have kids or not but you and your partner are making a life commitment to each other. My kids will eventually sod off and do their own thing but the memsahib and I will hopefully stick it out till "insert your favourite deity here" makes the call.
Now that commitment need to be recognised in law to allow same sex couples to be treated the same in terms of the laws of the land, so yes the legistlative parts need resolution. The religion part is a whole new ball of chalk. In arguing against one of the fundamental tenets of christianity (there are other forms of worship which I know sod all about ) to be "equal" seems wrong to me, God created Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve or Ruth and Esther to keep the ecclisiastical theme going.
The church has enough problems existing in modern society down the path they have decided might make things a whole lot worse.
