Quite unmistakable. But why should this have any relevance in politics? It's just the bible.
What's going on at the moment is of course a discussion about the rights of people with same-sex preference. But at its root it is also about the age old 'separation of church and state' issue.

i dont think either issue has roots here.
its a matter of respect and decency.
Entity A: publicly opposes the views of Entity B
Entity B: is upset with Entity A over their opinion (to which they are entitled)
as a result, Entity B stages some childish and disrespectful peep show meant to offend the views of Entity A.
both are well within their rights
Entity A has the right to it's opinion
Entity B has the right to protest
but my underlying question is... can the protest not be civil? can it not be tasteful?
i mean whats wrong with carrying signs and chanting some sort of protest mantra?
