  1. And the appeal will fail. Religious belief must never be allowed to be a licence to discriminate.

    I thought Gay people still can’t get married in Australia! How can sex within marriage apply to people who are prohibited from marriage. Boggles the mind

    2. This is precisely what happens when you allow a ‘belief’ to influence human rights. It gets silly, childish and confused. In our anxiousness to pander to ‘belief’, we risk denying millions their human rights to live a happy life. We must NEVER allow someone’s ‘belief’ to become a licence to peddal hate or to discriminate. The bible condones slavery and the burning of witches So why do ‘believers’ focus so obsessively on the anti-gay bits? When ‘believers’ start obeying ALL the rules, I may consider listening to their views. Until then, I’ll continue to ignore them as immature rantings.

  3. Believe any rubbish you like. But if you take money for a service and try to discriminate, expect to be penalized. That is fair.
