Two men with a marriage certificate, wearing traditional Bavarian Lederhosen.Congratulations!Germany’s parliament approved gay marriage on June 30, 2017! According to the UK’s conservative Daily Telegraph, opposition in the lopsided 393-226 vote came mostly from conservatives in the Lutheran and Catholic churches, and the far-right Alternative für Deutschland. Chancellor Angela Merkel, the daughter of a Lutheran minister, had introduced the measure in Germany’s parliament, but declared her fundamental opposition to gay marriage. She permitted her party’s members to vote according to their conscience, and voted against the law herself. All six Muslim members of parliament voted for the law. -- source link
