I agree wholeheartedly with Fr Renato Borg’s views in his Talking Point ‘Marriage is a covenant’ (June 29).

The meaning of marriage is in danger of being corrupted.

True marriage is between a man and a woman who consummate their union and, thus, make it possible for them to beget children. Children, the fruit of this marriage, need both to be brought up in a natural environment.

In giving equal rights to gay marriages, which include adoption of children, we are denying children their right to have a mother and a father. The new law seems to ignore this most important aspect.

I protest against taking away this right from them.
