Gay Marriage Advocates Pushing For Church Bill

Title: Gay Marriage Advocates Pushing For Church Bill

Summary:
This article is about a new bill that would make it so same-sex is legal but under control of the churches. I would be up to the church to decide if they wanted to marry a same-sex couple in their place of worship. The couples would be allowed to be officially married, they would merely have to find a church willing to make it official.

Reflection:
I thought that this article was pretty informative about the bill itself. It didn't however say anything about how it could effect people on both sides of the bill. I learned that in the near future it would be possible for same-sex couples to be officially married in the state of California.


Evidence:

* "California churches would have increased legal protection under a new bill
being proposed by gay marriage advocates."

* "SB 906 guarantees that no clergy member would be forced to perform a marriage
that conflicts with their religious beliefs and failure to marry someone would
not affect a church's tax exempt status."


Questions:

* Who's idea was this bill?
* Would it improve anything?
