Last week proposals to allow civil partnerships to take place in religious settings were unveiled by the Coalition Government Churches would not be forced to offer same sex ceremonies and the plans were welcomed by campaigners and politicians, including former Prime Minister Tony Blair, who claimed that they were long overdue. This is not a proposal that will find favour with the Roman Catholic Church, with Pope Benedict XVI describing gay marriage as "insidious".  However, others faiths, such as Quakers and Liberal Jews and Unitarians seem supportive of the move. But will this ruling really make a difference to same sex marriages? Do gay couples think that this move is vital to the future of civil partnerships? Are you in a same sex relationship? Would you get married in a church if you had the option? What difference would that make to you? HAVE YOUR SAY BELOW.

Yes, if me and my partner sam had the chance to get married in a church, we would. Why shouldn't we have the same rights? If we have a civil partnership, we are entitled to the same rights by law as a 'normal' marriage!!!!!!!!! xx

I wouldn't. Christianity does not support homosexuality so I wouldn't want to get married in a church!
