Church of Scotland faces gay 'weddings' split
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/5006752.stm

The Kirk's General Assembly is expected to be told it should be a matter of conscience for individual ministers.

However, an evangelical group has warned that the proposal will cause widespread dismay throughout the Church of Scotland.

The assembly's meeting, being held in Edinburgh, will run all week.

On Tuesday, it will be told that it is not surprising that some same sex couples will want some form of religious ceremony to mark their civil partnership.


no dears, the proposal will NOT cause widespread dismay-your refusal to preach the gospel of God's love causes dismay
