I have a religous christian right wing MIL, her church would not allow us to marry because I was a sinner and was destined for hell. So we married in a pub instead. I think I caused her grief hee hee but she has forgiven good christian that she is.
She didn't attend the wedding btw.
religion can be good but evil also. All relgions. I don't like any of them but hey people are allowed that choice. A basic freedom we have in Australia..or should have without fear of persecution.
