It does not say much for a person's morality if he is prepared to sacrifice what he believes in for a job.

I will speak to the Chair.

Senator Ó Domhnaill without interruption.

I do not believe any Member should dictate on silencing debate. Whether it comes from the church or anyone else outside this Chamber, everyone has the right to freedom of expression. I believe that on an issue of moral conscience every element of debate should be garnered, fostered and listened to. Who are we, as Senators, to tell any church or any religious organisation that its views do not count?

Senator, are you looking for debate on this issue?

I wish to say, on a point of order-----

What is your point of order?

What I called for was an equal debate-----

That is not a point of order.

It should involve both sides.

That is not point of order. I call Senator Noone, please.
