Rallies in Rochester, New York for and against same sex marriage

Episcopal Bishop Prince Singh was at the pro-rally and said his Church is wrestling with the same sex marriage issue. In his Church role, he cannot marry a same sex couple. But he's hoping a dialogue will lead to change. "It is something that is part of their inherent gift as God has made them. And this is an engagement of science and religion that people have been grappling with for a long time, but we are becoming a little more honest about it."

On the other side Tuesday morning, members of Citizens for a Decent Community staged the latest in a series of gay marriage protests in the area in front of City Hall.

Baptist Minister Vince Giardino led the group in prayer. "We pray for Sen. Alesi, Lord, that he would change his mind. That his conscience would be leading toward the Scriptures."
