Australian archbishop: resist pressure to accept same-sex marriage
July 13, 2015
Archbishop Anthony Fisher of Sydney, Australia has encouraged married couples to resist efforts to “bully us all” into acceptance of same-sex marriage.
Speaking to a congregation in the Sydney cathedral, where 120 couple renewed their marriage vows, the archbishop said that the sacramental union of a man and woman cannot be compared with other unions. “To say marriage is special is not to demean these other realities,” he said; “rather it respects the diverse ways of being human and loving, not pretending away the differences.”
