How did YOUR MP vote?

Here are the results of the vote to reopen the same sex marriage debate.

The one thing I feel compelled to say is this: Just because we can do something does not necessarily mean that we should. What I mean is just because the government can say that gays are "married", does not mean that it is either right or appropriate to do so. Human beings are capable of horrendous atrocities, but just because we have the ability to do these things, should we do them? The same applies to moral standards, just because we can say that "everything is acceptable" does not mean we should. Right will always be right, and I for one will never recognized the fallacy of "gay marriage".

Bob
