They didn't vote "'yes' for love"as the Prime Minister claims. They voted yes for sin, yes for darkness, yes for man's word over God's Word, yes for a perversion of the only true marriage God invented--one man for one woman (Genesis 1:27; Genesis 2:24)
Australia Votes ‘Yes’ on Same-Sex Marriage, Clearing Path for Legalization
More than 61 percent of voters in a nationwide mail-in survey supported the change, though the decision is up to Parliament.

Yet again we meet again a fellow that just said to us that the Christian theocracy is his favorite system of government. Also, those passages you mention don't justify marriage at all. So not only do you want a theocracy, you want one that searches for things where there is nothing to be found too.
Well, yes. Man's word over God's, sure.
Gotta figure, If an omnipotent being gave a rat's ass either way, he could have ensured that GOD'S WORD took precedence.
If he left it up to the voters for their actual preference, then even GOD is okay with the way the vote turned out...
Quite frankly, if love is sin to your god, then I'd happily be a sinner beyond belief than live even a bit virtueous. And I'm as straight as they come. So yeah, suck it hambone. You and your ilk are getting weaker by the day, and the world is getting better because of it.
Give it a rest, Ken. They voted yes. They don't want to listen to you spout bible verses any more than the USA does. Your bible speaks ONLY to those who freely chose that religion, and the rest of us have no reason to listen.
Ken here is an idea, move back to Australia and fight same sex marriage in your home land. You are not welcome here.
Sorry to any Australians, I know you don't want Ham ether.
From that little Book of Fairytales that you love so much, Ken.
Genesis 4
19 Lamech married two women, one named Adah and the other Zillah. 20 Adah gave birth to Jabal; he was the father of those who live in tents and raise livestock. 21 His brother’s name was Jubal; he was the father of all who play stringed instruments and pipes. 22 Zillah also had a son, Tubal-Cain, who forged all kinds of tools out of[g] bronze and iron. Tubal-Cain’s sister was Naamah.
23 Lamech said to his wives,
“Adah and Zillah, listen to me;
wives of Lamech, hear my words.
I have killed a man for wounding me,
a young man for injuring me.
24 If Cain is avenged seven times,
then Lamech seventy-seven times.”

Better thank those Greeks for making marriage one man one woman. And they didn't mind a little homosexual activity, either. Praise Zeus and Athena Nike for that!

We'll only take Ham back here if he can sail that Ark of his across the Pacific. Until then he's stuck in Yankland.
Your J-boy had two daddies.
Romans 13:1-5 is the least of your problems.
Now go back to trying to get Nye-senpai to notice you, Hammy. As your ways are dying, and your 'Ark' is sinking faster than a lead one, Attention Whoring is all you have left.
@KingOfRhye
That's the one.
Or in the case of Solomon 700 wives, 300 concubines. And while at it, it seems the countries that allow sin seem to be doing very well and have high standard of living while theocracies are failing and it seems sinners rewarded while your ark sank.
They did vote YES for love, you blithering idiot. Just cause you married for sin, for darkness, for perversion, doesn't mean that everyone does. Most people (at least in Western countries) marry for love, so YES for marriage is YES for love, to most people.
If you want to have a say in an election in Australia, why don't you move back there?
Just don't let that "little" folly of yours hit you on the head on your way out...
I see someone else has already posted the Bible Marriage Chart.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
