Supporting marriage equality is a reform that will do our country proud. It’s time Canberra caught up with the rest of the country and ended this crazy ban that stops some of the most loving and committed couples from getting hitched.”

"Marriage is a unique kind of relationship that involves a man and a woman and their ability to create new life in the form of children," says O'Reilly. "The church isn't looking to impose its understanding of marriage on others, but it is looking for its understanding of marriage to be protected. ]]> 2017-01-31 22:41:57 UTC https://padlet.com/sarah_watson2/zhg48sd36l78/wish/150708629 https://padlet.com/sarah_watson2/zhg48sd36l78/wish/150708678 The Catholic Church (against gay marriage)

“We now face a struggle for the very soul of marriage.

Only women are admitted to women's hospitals and only children to primary schools.

We have programmes targeted at Aborigines, refugees, athletes, those with disabilities or reading difficulties, and so on.

Thus, privileging or assisting particular people in relevant ways is not arbitrary but an entirely fair response.

And if the union of a man and a woman is different from other unions, not the same as other unions, then justice demands that we treat that union accordingly.”
