Strange that this is in the UK where they seem to have a much more secular society, but do have religion tied into the government more than the US.

As for my own opinion, religious freedoms should never trump equal rights.

Thanks but I found most of them so stupid I couldn't be bothered answering. Especially the ones who said the likes of "I'm not religious but I just can't stand the idea of two men [almost always men] having sex." As my husband says, "And your problem is ... my problem?"
