“As any tradie can tell you, marriage has always been a joining of two opposites. You cannot properly unite two of the same,” FamilyVoice research officer Ros Phillips said today.
“By definition, marriage is a complementary, male-female union. Only that union has the potential to create and raise children with both male and female role models.”
Ros Phillips said the new ACT Marriage Equality Same-Sex Bill, passed 9:8 yesterday does not make sense. “It is not ‘equality’ to disregard reality. A same-sex couple will always be different from an opposite sex couple,” she said.
“Let’s not confuse apprentice electricians, plumbers and carpenters in the ACT – lest the lights go out, the drains leak and the chairs collapse in the Legislative Assembly!”
