It's difficult to imagine a more cruel, homophobic, divisive and wasteful vote organised by the Australian Government. Spending in excess of $122 million and millions more in lost productivity and wages with the taxpayer footing the bill.

What they fail to understand are the role of genetics, past lives, and very often childhood maltreatment in the formation of sexual preferences.
