Gay marriage is legal and if a couple has a sentimental attachment to the church and the people of that church, they should not have to go door to door and beg someone else to marry them.
Because as much as you have rights, so does the Church. Catholic dogma says that gay marriage is immoral, and they should be allowed to follow their beliefs within their own system.

Not around so much now that school's started

"Live a good life.
If there are gods and they are just,
then they will not care how devout you have been,
but will welcome you based on the virtues you have lived by.
If there are gods, but unjust, then you should not want to worship them.
If there are no gods, then you will be gone, but will have lived a noble life
that will live on in the memories of your loved ones."
Marcus Aurelius
