The laws for divorce are also man made and can be changed.

Rights and wrongs of gay marriage aside, I'm genuinely perplexed as to why Cameron was so determined to push for this change in the law.
He doesn't strike me as a particularly liberal person and there was no public clamour for change, although there seems to be majority public support.
His MPs and party are mostly against - so I just don't 'get it'. 
There are other ways he could have shown that they are not the nasty party.
