Nothing really but I just thought that it was funny that they are saying that marriage should be between a man and a woman and yet their own traditional marriage customs include polygyny.

The Indigenous Elders who carried this Petition forward, including Auntie Yumina Anyupa Ken and Uncle Pepaii Carol from Ernabella, respect all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander groups and peoples and acknowledge that they do not speak for the entirety of their country or language groups. 

However, in putting this Petition forward, we recognise and we’re declaring that, the union between man and women is deeply a part of our ancient and continuing culture across all of our communities, and that our Fathers and Mothers provide the foundation for those communities.

WE now call upon our communities to stand with us as one Indigenous Australia to honour and protect one of our ancient and continuing values.

If those beliefs have no place in a modern,progressive society,then yes,call me intolerant. Same sex marriage is a done deal.It's not a matter of if,but when.
If the ALP win the next election,Abbott will be dumped and a large no of conservatives will vote in favour of SSM,if not the party as a whole.

oh ok. i get ya.

 

 

the blog is titled "The Uluru Bark Petition - They don't speak for me"

 

so i thought that was the reason for you 

posting it.  

Joono, wasn't it The Marriage Alliance who were/are running those anti SSM ads that people were complaining about?

Yes.They are not unlike the Heartland Institute.Spreading misinformation and downright lies to change public opinion to suit their narrow minded agenda.

Yes that's it.  Exactly right.

that's a shame because australians have

legal rights to express their religious/cultural

beliefs/traditions and peaceful protests.  

 

 

 

And where did I say you didn't have the right to your views? I sense the strawmen are about to be dragged out again
