Reply to comment by Flullible in C of E must welcome gay people or face questions in parliament, says MP by dolphins3

Forcing religions to appeal to me when not one part of me is religious?Thinking it wrong for Government to force religions into doing things?

That's not internalized homophobia that's being normal.

I don't want no one telling me how to live my life or what to believe, so i think it only fair I treat others the same...I don't have an internal need to control or dictate to people. Leave me alone, and I will leave you alone.

I'm not sure how you keep missing this, but the Church of England is not just a religion, it is literally an extension of the government. They automatically get 26 seats in the House of Lords where they vote on legislation. Bishops are approved by a government panel. Parliament already votes on religious matters like approving new editions of the Book of Common Prayer.
