[Magdalen] Bp. Wright OKs same sex weddings

[James Handsfield]

Martin, the fact is the Church has NEVER defined marriage, which is a legal, not ecclesiastical term.  The Church has administered the state understanding of marriage and has solemnized and blessed it.  So now we have a new version of the state definition of marriage, and the Church should rightfully continue to solemnize and bless it.
