When this postal vote takes place, if it takes place, is it simply a case of 50.1% of the vote going yes and the motion is passed ?

No, no, and no. It is just an opinion poll that should have been outsourced to Roy Morgan for a tiny fraction of the cost.

Whatever the result, short of 75%+ one way or the other, cue the endless excuses on the theme of, it wasn't fair and doesn't prove anything.

Somebody should make a complete list of all the reasons given during this campaign on why we should oppose marriage equality. It will be a long list and probably a full time job keeping up with them so I'm out. The anti's are endlessly inventive.

Same-sex marriage event off: threats to hotel staff

A ferocious campaign against Christian groups planning to meet on same-sex marriage has forced them to cancel the event at a major hotel next week, amid claims of physical threats from marriage-equality advocates.

The Accor Hotels group confirmed late yesterday that the function had been abandoned after a social media storm triggered phone calls that “rattled” employees and left the company concerned about the safety of staff and guests.

Again this time, so we go to the postal mess .   BUT .   At least the people who are interested enough will make a peoples choice.
That's better than the queer pollies doing it.

Marriage came into being as a stable social and legal platform to bring children into the world. It was never designed so people of the same gender could play footsy, without having people talk about it. I expect the "No" vote will at least run in the quinella.

Posted By: max manewer

dearie me, many men avoided marriage to protect their wealth from claims on it by the mothers of their children, and the children themselves. But the law has closed that gap with co-habitation laws, and child support laws. But still not under the cover of the more readily accessible Family Law Court. As a result marriage has much less importance as formerly. Seniors getting married, without any prospect of children, is not the main game, and never was. But don't feed me garbage about how the issue of children was not front and centre of the raison(s) d'etre of marriage, in all cultures, universally.

Marriage has changed form many times over the ages. Polygamy was once the go for high-status men. We changed the rules. Child marriage was once all the rage- still is in some places- we changed the rules. Infertile marriages used to be dissolved. We changed the rules. Contraception in marriage used to be illegal. We changed the rules.

If indeed reproduction was the purpose of marriage we can change the rules. It is clearly not the purpose of many hetero marriages.

Can a couple marry in a church without a legal marriage licence under the marriage act?

Can a couple marry without using a church?

The religious aspect is a outdated appendage to the legal framework created around children's legal status, property rights and to some extent sexual control. 

Religion is being used less and less with 75% of marriages performed by civil celebrants according to last years census. Religion shouldn't have any influential say in this argument in an increasingly secular world imo

Laws exist, or ought to exist, in the interests of a smoother functioning of society. That is the only test that should be applied to the wisdom of allowing gay marriage, and if that was a simple proposition, the debate would not be happening. I would say the watering down of the importance of marriage through laws governing property settlement, of long co-habiting, but unmarried people, together with child support laws that apply to all and sundry, is probably a bigger blow to the standing of marriage, than gay marriage is. It isn't that special, and that follows from the relaxation of divorce laws as well. Now gays will get to participate in the "fun" of legal intrusion into their relationships, and you wonder if a silent majority of them, or the smarter ones anyway, don't see it as a mixed blessing at best.


Posted By: Passing Through
Date Posted: 22 Aug 2017 at 11:06am
Watering down or being more inclusive?

This is just bringing excluded people into the current legal framework. It has no effect on people already covered. It is a rights issue. 

Failing out of touch religious bodies are trying to frame it as being about them, but it isn't, and their attitude just drives more people away from them than the droves already departing or not engaging religion.

Posted By: max manewer

Watered down in comparison to its former legal standing, as the only arrangement that offered legal protection. Today people can't dodge responsibility, in theory at least, to the extent they once could, married or not. Back in the day, people would look askance at women having children "out of wedlock", and in many cases the taxpayer picked up the tab through "supporting mother benefits", That has changed considerably, too. And I agree it has nothing to do with religion. In fact, I seem to recall the man himself (JC) telling someone there was no marriage in the Kingdom of Heaven !

Why should it only be different here, and because of the views of one major religion?

The US, UK Canada, France etc have legalised it, the Anglican church have gay bishops, archbishops, gay married clergy. 

Why should the majority view be over ridden by the views of a minority group, the Catholic Church, because of their powerful political influence?

It should have been a binding referendum with a simple yes or no question on the HOR ballot paper at last years  federal election. Again it wasn't because it is designed to get a situation that can fail

I heard a horrible, but true story, about a woman who was almost expired, leaving her estate to a neighbour, on condition he provide care and comfort to her beloved dog. Upon her death, and inheriting the money, he promptly took the dog to the pound, and in quick time, the bookies relieved him of the money. What a maggot !

I'm glad whale reformed his old ways of abusing people via PM's (apparently) and now just throws in the odd snide remark, generally without any reasonable basis !

Good to see you stopped taking the bait, but unfortunately now seem to prefer to lay the bait ! It's a process, I suppose, one step at a time.

Mid-September, subject to any court challenges. The gay marriage proponents are off to a flying start, with "stop the fags" posters being plastered around Melbourne, I hope that isn't clever, clandestine reverse psychology advertising, but it does nothing for the "NO" case, to have that crudity being used.

Be careful quoting Lyle Shelton from the Australian Christian Lobby max. He is not very Christian at all.

In response, the ACL leader said the controversial image "obviously doesn't come from us," and said the posters may have been planted on purpose by same-sex marriage advocates looking to critique  http://www.huffingtonpost.com.au/2017/08/07/turnbull-will-vote-yes-on-a-plebiscite-but-has-many-other-calls_a_23069592/" rel="nofollow - the idea of a "respectful debate" .

The poster in question is headed by the screaming headline "STOP THE FAGS" and  http://www.huffingtonpost.com.au/2017/08/20/these-nazi-homophobic-posters-arent-just-vile-but-totally-false_a_23155271/?utm_hp_ref=au-homepage" rel="nofollow - pictures a young child cowering  before two rainbow-coloured belts, seemingly about to be punished.

"I don't know who put that poster up. I can't imagine anyone from our side would do that. It may have even come from people wanting to prove the sort of point you're making [Waleed]," he said.

"I know the people on our side of the debate and we're not like that and nor would we be like that.

I plead complete ignorance of that chap or the statement. But it does seem like a very counter-productive act by that serial nuisance " Bill Stickers" if wanting a "no" vote.

It took me 30sec to find those posters posted on a European nazi websites 6 months ago and that the name on the bottom of the poster owning it is a very well known nazi site

Is Lyle or his organisation really that dim, or is he being deliberately deceptive?

I have no idea. But it isn't implausible that it might be not what it appears at first glance. It certainly occurred to me without having any knowledge Of Lyle or his statement. Unless someone is caught in the act of posting them, and their antecedents examined.

Why would the Mayor want to install someone he has had virtually zero interaction with as moderator? Your delusions haven't subsided it seems.

You being caught out begging people not to talk to me is one of he all time classics!

Bear in mind this was "advice" given to people, including a couple who were fairly new to the site, who were set upon by you-know-who.....and I confess I didn't follow my own advice to the letter.....but the "begging" just isn't there. And a couple had worse to say about E&E than me !

Bloke finishes up giving everyone the sh1ts, best policy is to totally ignore the twat. Wink







Lovely bloke he ain't. Everyone offended by him should do as I do, totally ignore it.










Do yourself a favour ( no, I'm not Molly Meldrum) Tongue and do not respond to this individual, Excrete and Expel. The only person here I have a life ban on, obnoxious beyond words, you demean yourself answering "its" bile.



I have this bloke as 100% to be ignored, take no notice of him.

And yet the recipients of your messages were kind enough to forward them on to me. Yep, really sounds like they agreed with you.

Bottom line is you hoped to get more people to join you in ignoring me. Call if you you like, I'll call it begging.

has the question been asked,
why didnt Rudd or Gillard introduce ssm, or why not leave it to the next labor government to bring in ssm....or is that too far away?

gillard was against it, just cos- didn't have a reason but against it. Now the spectacular hypocrite is for it.

Rudd the same- against it while in power- for it after- how convenient- spectacular hypocrite.

They wave this way or that, according to which way the breeze is blowing. That is not leadership. And it is not the preserve of Labor, plenty on the other side have had changes of mind. They flock like sheep. At least Abbott has maintained his attitude. Being seen as out of step with your fellows, is dangerous territory, socially and politically. That is how ideas that take hold, are re-inforced, by compliance of people to the principle of "safety in numbers"

Not many in politics, particularly that most unprepossessing variant, the "career" politician, want to be seen as outliers. Stranded out there, you can become de-coupled from the safety of the crowd. Perhaps Abbott does stand on principle above popularity, or maybe just a captive of the past, and his Catholicism, or some combination of the above.
