Marriage - and the concept that underpins it - is not a "generalist term" and should not be used as such on the Isle of Man:
That's the Island's Bishop who voted against the Marriage and Civil Partnership Bill being introduced earlier this week.
He was joined in his opposition to legalise same-sex marriage by MLCs David Anderson and Geoff Corkish and MHKs Eddie Teare, Chris Robertshaw and Zac Hall.
Despite their efforts the bill passed and is now awaiting Royal Assent - Robert Paterson said he made his decision with a "heavy heart":
