News on PinkNews that Stonewall and LGCM are asking for the Government to allow churches to carry out Civil Partnerships.
Not sure what I think about this as Civil Partnership is 'civil' and not religious but on the other hand there is the freedom of religion argument and churches are not allowed to honour their faith in being able to join together same sex couples, though of course nothing stops them from offering a blessing ceremony or prayers for the couple after the ceremony.
I think it is more important to allow same sex couples to marry whether in church or indeed a civil marriage.
