Australia is about to have a postal survey on same-sex marriage. Public opinion is about 80% in favor, but the cowardly politicians here are afraid to take a parliamentary vote and have instead decided to spend about $100 million on this survey.
Predictably, those opposed to marriage equality are mostly arguing from a religious perspective. This article, written by a bible expert, dissects these arguments and finds that there is little if any basis for anti-gay sentiment in the bible. Interestingly, he suggests that the Sodom and Gomorrah story was intended to condemn sexual violence/gang rape, rather than gay sex.
