The debate over whether or not same sex marriage should be allowed in Australia and if it even is what name or form it should be given is certainly a controversial one and last week it took a rather unusual twist.

Margaret Court is well known in the tennis world for her achievements in her early days,

Among her tennis playing achievements
Margaret Court won 62 grand slam titles - 24 singles, 19 women's doubles and 19 mixed doubles.

She is now a well known Christian Minister and pastor of a church in Perth in Western Australia and has spoken out against same sex marriage legislation voicing her opposition and in doing so seems to have copped not just criticisms but there are even people like Doctor Kerryn Phelps who want to remove Margaret Court’s name from the Australian Tennis Open Arena that was named in Margaret Court’s honour.

Now this is where things get interesting.

Of course people are going to have disagreements about the things they believe in including issues about various government policies.

But some campaigners including some homosexuals seems to think that they have a right to do and say whatever they want and no one else should be allowed to enjoy the same freedoms or free speech.

Turn It Up
