Sir Cliff Richard speaks in favour of same sex marriages

POP ICON Sir Cliff Richard has spoken for the first time about his friendship with a former Roman Catholic priest with whom he shares his home. Cliff describes Fr John McElwynn as his "companion" in his new autobiography. Sir Cliff, aged 67, also says he is sick of speculation about his sexuality and thinks the Church should approve same sex marriages.

I don't believe these lines. They are mixed thoughts, lined up in one article for the sake of telling some negative of somebody who deserves great praise and appreciation for what he has done for the Art.
Media seems to prefer married men when they have mistresses and beat up their wife every evening under influence of alcohol or drugs.
Please, don't hurt Cliff, you had better take an example of his humility to his art.

Like many others I was extremely disapppointed to read of these comments by Cliff. He is someone who represents Christianity to many non-believers and therefore has a responsibility to stand firm for biblical principles. To come out with this kind of unscriptural comment pretty well defies belief (no pun intended). What's happened to him?
