Presbyterians approve expanding definition of marriage

Leaders of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) voted Tuesday to amend its constitution with a more inclusive definition of marriage. The vote means that the church now defines marriage as "two people, traditionally a man and a woman." 

Evan Wolfson, president of Freedom to Marry, said the change "is yet another powerful mainstream affirmation of America's movement to embrace the freedom to marry as a reflection of the morality of treating everyone as we all would want to be treated."
