Clearly, if it is sensible to hold a referendum on independence, it is crucial that we have one on marriage. It is the only way the country can move forward on this issue. Let all those who have a view on this subject place their trust in the Scottish people and let Scotland decide. Keith O'Brien
Same-sex marriage would eliminate entirely in law the basic idea of a mother and a father for every child. It would create a society which deliberately chooses to deprive a child of either a mother or a father. Keith O'Brien
If marriage can be redefined so that it no longer means a man and a woman but two men or two women, why stop there? Why not allow three men or a woman and two men to constitute a marriage? Keith O'Brien
Keith O'Brien quote: "I might be celibate, but I appreciate the wonder of the..."
I might be celibate, but I appreciate the wonder of the sacrament of marriage. Keith O'Brien
The church's teaching on marriage is unequivocal, it is uniquely, the union of a man and a woman and it is wrong that governments, politicians or parliaments should seek to alter or destroy that reality. Keith O'Brien
Redefining marriage will have huge implications for what is taught in our schools, and for wider society.

Keith O'Brien
Keith O'Brien quote: "No Government has the moral authority to dismantle the..."
No Government has the moral authority to dismantle the universally understood meaning of marriage. Keith O'Brien
There is no doubt that, as a society, we have become blase about the importance of marriage as a stabilising influence and less inclined to prize it as a worthwhile institution. Keith O'Brien
