no, the canon law would need to be changed and that takes fucking ages.
not only that, there need to be a large percentage of priests voting for it to be changed, there is simply no appetite in ANY of the churches for that.
what denominations are currently in favour of gay marriage? catholics nope, CoE nope, CoS nope and those are the least right wing of the jesus lovers. muslims? can't see that.

yes. it's not a church, and has no unified message.
they are the christian equivalent of hippies, no-one gives a fuck and they'll probably all die from drinking unpasteurised milk.

you what?
There are definitely some denominations (minor ones) in favour. My dad was a CoS minister, so I vaguely know about the structure etc of that church, and on the proper Scots side of my family they're Baptists.
But as I'm atheist I haven't been near a church in a long time and I'm genuinely curious to find out about how equality legislation will be implemented in Scotland, as I believe it's coming in there before England and Wales.
Calm down dude.

see the legislation only gives the same legal rights and status to the gays.
so, instead of a civil partnership they can get proper married.
it means fuck all to the churches though as they don't need to do anything about it at all. simple as that.
