The then Fine Gael leader and Taoiseach, Enda Kenny, played a significant role in advocating for the 'Yes' campaign.

Agree

Yes, but allow churches the right to refuse same-sex ceremonies

While Fine Gael supported the legalization of same-sex marriage, they also recognized the importance of religious freedom. The Marriage Act 2015, which legalized same-sex marriage in Ireland, includes provisions that allow religious organizations to refuse to solemnize a marriage that goes against their beliefs. This answer aligns with their support for both marriage equality and religious freedom.

Take the government out of marriage and instead make it a religious decision

Strongly disagree

No, allow civil unions but don’t call it marriage
