I'm still shocked at the arrogance of stating your religion gets to define what marriage is in the UK.
Even thou I am distinctly secular, the state religion is Anglican.
Once again for clarity.
The STATE religion is ANGLICAN. Not Orthodox.
If any religion gets to redefine what marriage is (which is still stupid), its the state religion of the country where the law is being defined.
You don't have to respect the Church of England, but how can you not see how arrogant it is of you to demand that your Orthodox religion deserves to overrule the state religion.
Even if it wasn't the state religion, your position is still untenable purely on the basis of the arguments stated.
The fact you resorted to comparing to gay marriage to marrying a woman and an animal tells us everything about your opinions. Any respect you were due for arguing your point politely was lost at that instant.
You are wrong on this, for so many many reasons. Adapt or die goes for religions as well, and you contribute to the death of yours with every word.

If you’re going to watch tele, you should watch Scooby Doo. That show was so cool because every time there’s a church with a ghoul, or a ghost in a school. They looked beneath the mask and what was inside?
