Legislators and faith

Sir, – Fr Gregory O'Brien admonishes The Irish Times (January 28th) for neglecting to mention "other social issues", claiming marriage equality is a mainly middle-class social issue.

In the particular case of marriage equality, homosexuals on the margins of society have as much a right to marry as middle-class homosexuals. – Yours, etc,
