Australia: LGBT agenda is to generate fear and bigotry
Canberra celebrant Gunn knows people on both sides of the fence. "Some of my clients have decided to wait ... Even though it's disruptive to them, to their life, to their wellbeing," she said. "I have done several civil unions this year. They're happy within themselves, and that's very important too."
This celebrant assumes the lack homosexual marriage opportunities is disruptive to their lifestyle. Unfortunately, the Bible states clearly that God removes, abandons such practices, so they are in even greater peril.
Same-sex marriage was briefly legislated by rebellious Greens in the ACT in 2013 but those laws were struck down by the High Court days later. It violated the law of the land as it is not state based.
"It was a really great day, like, we had all our family and friends there, at short notice, the ones who could be there," Hayley said. After their marriage was annulled, the pair travelled to New Zealand and wed there. But Hayley said protracted uncertainty had taken its toll.

"The whole waiting side of things, being, is it going to happen, when's it going to happen, it has been quite emotional," she said. "A lot of our friends are just frustrated."
Frustration to sin to have your own way is simply illogical.
Timing, nature of plebiscite still unclear
The details of a plebiscite, including the question, public funding and timeframe, have yet to be finalised. That uncertainty is something supporters of traditional marriage, like the Australian Christian Lobby's Lyle Shelton, also want resolved.
"There's been very little, almost no consultation with our side, so we look forward to engaging with the Government about the form and nature of the question and how the plebiscite should be conducted," he said.
"What's important is we get it right, and the plebiscite is conducted in a way that's fair to both sides."
The Wilsons have echoed concerns from Labor Leader Bill Shorten, that a plebiscite would be materially harmful to their family, and in particular, their children. But there is simply no evidence of this. In fact all these statements are coming from LGBT people seeking sympathy by creating a false bigotry.
"I just worry about him seeing in print media, or ads on TV, or not even him seeing it directly but his school friends seeing it and questioning him at school," Samantha said.

The truth is if it hasn't happened yet, it will not bother the child then. This is a false LGBT Labor argument.
"I worry about other teenagers who are getting to the stage of realising what their sexual orientation is ... They're in a vulnerable position anyway."

Immorality is vulnerable? Quite the opposite immorality is rebellion. But Mr Shelton said concern from advocates was unfounded.
"This debate's been going on for about 10 years in Australia, there's been no hatred or bigotry coming from our side," he said.
"What's disappointing is the suggestion that if you don't support changing the definition of marriage ... That somehow that position is hatred and bigotry and homophobia."
