    I am thrilled to read this :) Just fantastic.

    They aren't hurting anyone and anyone who cares what they do in their own bedrooms is a pervert anyway :p

    Great post - uplifting.

    Thank you Darpie :)

    somehow I think this is quite funny. I wonder if this marriage will help to put a lid on that volcanoe spewing ash that clogged up the airways?

    State-controlled marriage is such a terrible idea. Instead of homosexuals getting into it, heterosexuals should be getting out of it.

    Marriage should be between two or more people, and their church or legal council if they wish. Government should not be allowed to sanction, or not to sanction, relationships between private citizens.

    Muslim homosexuality is on the rise? Or were you saying, "As a Muslim homosexual" meaning you are professing to be a Muslim homosexual?

    trustedfire9 - rather than looking at this as a Muslim thing, or a population thing - why not just see it as a happy thing?

    It's a great day for love.

    Great info mate, really a brave move by the country's premiere.
    He must be a real role model for the other nations as well.

    Just for the info, in India also Gay marriages are legally permitted according to last year's Supreme Court Verdict, though one wouldn't dare to make it a public announcement, as he/she might face heat of the religious parties.

    once again way to go pal!!!

    well, the only reason I would find Muslims with higher birth generation, is the control free structure of the muslim religion, where the religion preaches to have more children to grow the religion rapidly. Correct me if I am wrong. I have heard it from a muslim friend of mine.

    Shes pretty hot for an older gal. It would be interesting to see what her partner looks like. For that matter, what the two of them look like together.... naked.... gotta go.

    O_Nation: In the strange world of the "moral majority" right wing you either:

    1. Totally disqualified yourself for membership
    or
    2. Established a perspective that will bring you to leadership of that element of the Right Wing

    I'd suggest you and ex Senator Craig arrange a dinner engagement with the leader of Iceland and her partner to further the interests of foreign relations. and I do mean foreign relations :D
