On February 23, 2004 Religion News Service reported, "Responding to recent public debate on the right of same-sex couples to legally marry, the Center for Lesbian and Gay Studies in Religion and Ministry (CLGS) at Pacific School of Religion (PSR) has created a new web-based Marriage Project, now available on its web site at www.clgs.org. Designed for communities of faith, LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender) activists, and secular and religious news media, the Marriage Project offers materials on the history of marriage in Christian traditions, talking points for understanding the civil rights involved in marriage, liturgical and theological resources for engaging this issue in faith communities, and links to denominational and other organizational resources for sorting through the implications of the debate for our religious and civic institutions."
