Homosexuals make up their own marriage vows
Like some homosexual men, they want to get married. They've already written their vows. The vows do not reflect the required statement of Australian law namely, the relationship is exclusive between a man and a woman for life. They have to reword it all to include romance and commitment.
But unlike most couples, Des and Rex will have to keep waiting. Immoral homosexual marriage isn't legal in Australia and that's not likely to change anytime soon, as the government reached a deadlock over how to move forward.
"We can't wait much longer though -- Des is dying." Why? Homosexual Marriage doesn't bring equality to a brother and sister who want to marry? So it is not really about equality for everybody is it? It is limited to only homosexuals. Most protests in Australia contain many young people who have no arguments to support homosexual marriage just a slogan they repeat and shout. They have no logical foundation for their arguments.
Marriage is between a man and a woman for life. Two homosexual men may care for each other and this is good- but the relationship itself is disordered and un-natural. Sympathy can be given for the dying - no doubt but using that sympathy to approve homosexual marriage again is another false argument.
