  • The curiosity of December: Denmark

Equality before the wedding

It's official, Danish homosexuals will soon be allowed to marry in church (at least in those which depend on the Church of Denmark). The country has long been a pioneer in this field. It was indeed the first in the world to allow gay couples to enter into a civil union in 1989. In addition, since 1997, the Church of Denmark has offered them the opportunity to bless their union. Pastors will nevertheless not be forced to accept homosexual couples to marry if they do not.
