She re­tort­ed: "Leviti­cus is a Chris­t­ian some­thing that ex­ist­ed long ago. We are here, to­day."And if you want to go back to Leviti­cus now there are many, many oc­ca­sions in which I will take you, not on­ly to Leviti­cus, but to the Ark, back to the Ark, right."So you play­ing fas and loose. Don't do that with me. My thing is the Eng­lish lan­guage."In­de­pen­dent Sen­a­tor He­len Dray­on said T&T's con­sti­tu­tion was more pro­gres­sive than Leviti­cus. She quot­ed the con­sti­tu­tion on the in­di­vid­ual's rights, par­tic­u­lar­ly the right to equal­i­ty of treat­ment by pub­lic au­thor­i­ties. She asked why Gov­ern­ment was go­ing back­ward with the is­sue of co-habi­ta­tion in the bill. Gov­ern­ment Sen­a­tor King said Gov­ern­ment would like to get de­fin­i­tive de­bate go­ing on same-sex unions with rec­om­men­da­tions.
