Marrying is such a fun filled event for some couple’s life especially around Australia. While Australian Family Association together with the National Marriage Coalition are working hard to make August 13th as the official day for National Marriage Day. With their hopes to keep the anniversary of the Marriage Amendment Act of 2004, and so AFA Vice-president Mary-Louise Fowler said a national day was needed to recognize the effort that it takes to stay married and form a family. Saying this while opposing for the same-sex marriage to attain a government cash bonuses during their union, while only the ones who are of in different sex should be recognized and be given a federal government cash bonuses.
Dumping the gay marriage situation, Ms Fowler said “There’s no such thing as gay marriage and the people lobbying for that are unfortunately misdirected because it’s a bit like saying two tables make a dining room suite.” Furthermore, the group said that they are aiming to support both sides of politics to promote a “renewed culture of marriage”.
RISE representative Judi Limbers also has turn her support for the pro-marriage movement, saying that in this sexually liberated society, girls have often become sexual service stations for men and they just end up getting used. The Christian youth movement Restoring Integrity and Sexual Ethics (RISE) is also backing the pro-marriage movement.
AFA describes itself as ecumenical and non-political while the NMC says it aims to act as a “national clearing house” for information on marriage.
