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?
