Australian Rugby Star David Pocock Speaks Out for Marriage Equality

Australian Rugby Star David Pocock Speaks Out for Marriage Equality


David Pocock says: "I don't see what the big deal is with the whole gay
marriage debate in Australia. Being brought up in a Christian home and still
identifying as Christian, I get pretty annoyed with the Christian lobbies around
the world who say gay marriage destroys the family and all that kind of rubbish.
They claim to follow someone who always stood up for the oppressed and marginalized. I
guess it is a fear of the unknown - if you talk to someone who
doesn't like gay people you can almost guarantee that they don't know too many.
These are the prejudices that you have to challenge and break down. Emma and I
decided not to get legally married until our gay friends could do the same."
