who have come together in support of same-sex marriage.

"No mosque, church, gurdwara, temple, or synagogue will ever have to conduct a same-sex marriage if they do not wish to," says Fatah. "But freedom of religion cannot come at the cost of limiting the rights of other groups in society."

canada is so very much the right country for me.

(Ew. Poutine.)

My MP is a conservative who keeps trying to inflict his religious values on those in his constituancy. I'm proud of most Canadians, but some of them.. I can only wonder what century they live in.

"Equal but seperate" didn't exist in this country when it came to race, we wouldn't tolerate it.. but now we're expected to tolerate it for sexual preference? Puh-lease.

I admire the crap out of the Canadian Anglican church. They have female priests, will perform gay marriages (even if it won't be recognized by the province) and they're very much in the 21st century.

Canada, where we welcome all open-minded people with open arms.

Mn. The anglican church my mom goes to just got a influx of new people since their priest is the only one around actively going 'FUCK YOU AND YOUR GAYERY'


so we're not that great.

But that's not all bad - if people have a place to go where they can have their opinions and not have conflict there's less conflict. If the whole church said "Well, that's it - Gay is OKAY!" everyone who thought gay isn't okay would have an (un)holy hissy fit.

Or.. I'm happy they have found their closet to hide in. ;) .. Probably not so great for you tho!

Eh. I'll live. It's my mom that's pissed, her sunday school load doubled on her. Along with the annoying little old lady quotient.

I read this little article (http://cassandrapages.blogspot.com/2005_04_10_cassandrapages_archive.html#111334937076204706) and thought of you, and why you are definitely in the right place.

And now I'm musing on the question so many Americans ask: "Why aren't there liberal warm countries?"
