your belief system only applies to you and those people that share it. The rest of the world has their own opinions and they decide who is correct.!

As it happens I am an atheist and I think that while it is a step in the right direction, same sex couples should be able to marry if they want to. Civil unions aren't the same as marriage.

I am also unsure of Francis' motivation in this, before he was Pope he stated that same sex marriage was of the devil. Has he grown and changed or is he playing politics?
