LONDON – A law to allow same-sex weddings will destroy the institution of marriage for future generations, leaders of the Church of England warned yesterday.
伦敦，英国教会主教昨天警告说：同性婚姻立法将会导致未来婚姻的立法危机

They claim it will lead to a constitutional crisis, arguing that human rights legislation will force churches to treat gay couples asking for a wedding in the same way they treat heterosexual couples.
他声称同性婚姻立法会导致立法危机，此立法会强迫教会必须为同性伴侣和像异性伴侣一样举行婚礼。

The Church of England’s warning comes in response to the Government’s consultation on legalising same-sex marriage, which will close this week.
英国关于同性婚姻立法的讨论即将于本周结束。

The proposed reforms, formally launched in March, have been described by Church officials as ‘half-baked’, ‘very shallow’, ‘superficial’ and ‘completely irrational’.
教会称今年3月份提交的关于婚姻的立法改革草案是：【不成熟的】【非常狭隘的】【极其肤浅的】【痴人说梦】

They claim the change will lead to the Church separating itself from civil law and leaders say this raises the prospect of ‘disestablishment’.
还生成关于婚姻立法的改变会导致政教彻底分离。

This would entail the cutting of ties between Church and state that have lasted for nearly 500 years, threatening a series of major consequences.
在英国，政教合一已经有将近500年的历史，政教分离会引起一系列不可知的后果。

怪不得教会要这么反对同性婚姻呢，原来是为了维护自己的政治影响力。什么上帝啊，圣经啊，都被代表了，这样的阴险和自私的人，相信上帝有什么用？

我个人的理解：我即便要结婚，我也不可能选择不尊重我的教堂，我甚至连教徒都不是。我结婚和教堂毫无任何关系。

我认为：英国政府应该允许同性婚姻。同时，允许教会不承认同性婚姻。（天主教堂同样不承认异性恋离婚，这很正常）

不过估计在英国这样一个基督教极有影响力的国家，宗教的影响很重要，才会导致了这么多的正义。真的应该把同性婚姻和宗教分开讨论，各司其职，谁也别管谁。

[size=1.2em]Kieran Bohan and Warren Hartley signed the register at Liverpool’s Unitarian Church on the day of their blessing.

[size=1.2em]The church received final confirmation from Liverpool council that it could register civil partnerships just a week before the couple’s big day.

[size=1.2em]The legislation to allow religious buildings to host civil ceremonies was implemented in December.

[size=1.2em]Mr Hartley, 36, an administrator, and Mr Bohan, 41, who runs a youth group, have been together for four and a half years. They had originally planned to go to the register office the day before the blessing.

[size=1.2em]Mr Hartley said: ‘Bringing the two elements together means we are able to celebrate our love for each other and our love of God.’
