Reuters is reporting that Iceland has passed Same-Sex Marriage in a unanimous vote.
Iceland, the only country in the world to have an openly gay head of state, passed a law on Friday allowing same-sex partners to get married in a vote which met with no political resistance.
The Althingi parliament voted 49 to zero to change the wording of marriage legislation to include matrimony between “man and man, woman and woman,” in addition to unions between men and women.
I can only wistfully imagine how nice it would be to not have religion interfering in politics.
