Re: Homosexual couple sue Christian hotel owners for refusing them a double room

The warning on the website is that it states 'a marraige between Man & a Women'..It doesn't then give any scope for civil partnerships (even once performed in a church) nor does it give leeway for foriegn single sex marraiges..

It's not as if it's a brand new law and has been in force a couple of years now..

If it was based on Christianity then why also doesn't it restrict against thost married in a registry office...or perhaps unbaptized individuals
because Christians recognise state marriages ( there isnt really any need to get married in a church ( except maybe for Catholics ) as there is no bible section on how to get married )

there is however a European law that says they are allowed to manifest thier faith the way they see fit


see hear where this was upheld when a greak court went against the convention

there are too competing freedoms here and if this was about refusing to let them in it would one thing ( thats to do with the black coment on refusing service ) but this is not its about what they want going on under thier roof

if they had seperate rooms just as would have been asked of them as an unmarried couple they could have staid
