No, I still believe the freedom of choice is the more important here. A couple should be free to chose a ceremony that they want, which the church can support or not. The church is a separate entity and like a corporation, they can set their own rules for what they allow or support, as long as it is within the legal framework of Sweden.

My second point is that the church could have had an internal discussion about this, but they (or more likely some indiviuals) have opted to make this internal debate into a political question, inflaming the topic to such a degree that even international media covers it.

They did, but the punishment he received was not really fitting the crime of treason.

While I agree wholeheartedly with the church making internal policies, but bringing an internal conflict into international media, airing a view that seem rather sensationalistic is what I react to. Having an internal discussion, making a decision and then implement a policy would have been the proper way.

While I agree that the act could be interpreted as an symbol of inequality, I really think personal choice should be the winner here.

I'm going to go with Leopold II of Belgium because of the atrocities this fucker unleashed upon the democratic republic of the Kongo.

Kissinger also come to mind, but he's not been dead long enough to be brought back yet, I think I'll leave that fucker to a generation that doesn't get hypertension just hearing the name.

If reincarnation is real and I have a choice, I will be chomping on tourists my next life.

Presumably my self growth, as it was something my younger self struggled with.
