Germans celebrate first gay marriages

Monday, October 2, 2017 | Tag Cloud Tags: , , , ,

(Worthy News) - Karl Kreile and Bodo Mende – two civil servants from Berlin – became the first gay couple to marry in Germany on Sunday after parliament voted in June to allow lesbian and gay couples to marry and adopt children.

Berlin Mayor Michael Müller congratulated the couples and described the first gay nuptials as a "historic event."

"Marriage for all is a milestone on the path to full legal and social equality," Müller said in a statement on Friday ahead of the weddings, lauding the gay and lesbian community and those "who fought for many years" for their rights.

Polls show around 75 percent of Germans in favor of gay marriage. [ Source: Deutche Welle (Read More...) ]

  1. Ooooh!! Where is the world heading ?? God created man and woman as husband and wife. Soddom and Gommorah were destroyed because of this kind of same sex marriage . Let them turn away from their sins .

  3. SO CALLED, gay marriage, why bother? It IS NOT recognised in the eyes of GOD! All involved will answer to GOD! Thanks to Obama and the DEMONcratic party America. along with Germany, has become a modern day Sodom and Gomorrah! President Trump has attempted to undo the mess created by them! Hell is waiting! Sadly, children are the biggest victims of lgbt push and vain effort to normalize their perverted lifestyle!
