The end of the article states :
"Former defence minister Sir Gerald Howarth has written to Defence Secretary Philip Hammond warning that military chaplains face being disciplined if the Government forces through its plans.
He wrote: 'Under the Government's proposals if the definition of marriage is rewritten, then those chaplains who maintain their support for the traditional/biblical meaning could face disciplinary action and even dismissal.'
The former minister also dismisses recent assurances from the Government that it can protect churches from prosecution.
He said: 'The Government is keen to assert that no clergy declining to offer a marriage service to homosexuals will be subject to discrimination or penalty, an undertaking ministers are in no position to give since the interpretation of any new law will rest with the courts and, ultimately, the impertinent European Court of Human Rights, "
So see all public servants now political advocates of the ruling system.
How has 'democracy' got to this stage? How? Over the years our thinking has become so poisoned.
And the government is by-passing the issue about the church carrying out gay weddings by passing it over to the EU, while they vigorously stop EU from wanting prisoners to be able to vote.
The church will be driven underground and to persecution. Let us follow the leads of Jesus and Paul.
