One of the major sticking points was protecting those clergy members who oppose same sex marriages by not forcing them to convene over them.[/QUOTE] [COLOR=#8b4513][SIZE=3][FONT=comic sans ms][I][B] I'm not saying any of this to start a debate on the issue of gay marriage.[/B][/I] [I][B][/B][/I] [I][B]Why will it be an economic boom? I realize that there will be a lot of couples come in to get married and thus spend money while they are there but will that actually translate into a boom?
