A 26-year-old birthday party goer has been snatched by a 5-meter 16-foot 
crocodile while swimming in a notorious habitat of the dangerous reptiles, 
police said on Sunday.The man, whose name has not been released, was 
celebrating a friend's 30th birthday on Saturday at the Mary River Wilderness 
Retreat, an Outback tourist destination 70 miles southeast of the Northern 
Territory capital Darwin, the victim's hometown, Senior Sergeant Geoff Bahnert 
said.The victim and another man had gone swimming across the river. The 
pair were swimming back when the crocodile attacked, he said."Several of 
the group in the party witnessed the male being taken in the 
jaws of the croc for a period of time, and then he 
was out of sight," Bahnert said."The Mary River is known worldwide to 
have the greatest saturation of adult saltwater crocodiles in the world. 
You don't swim in the Mary River," he said.Alcohol may have played 
a part in the decision to swim, he said.Police and a government 
crocodile management team arrived at the resort late Saturday, and an officer 
shot one of the largest crocodiles found in the area for the 
safety of searchers, he said.It was not yet known if it was 
the killer crocodile.Teams were dragging the river in search of remains, 
Bahnert said."The advice to tourists is to come, look, take photographs 
and stay out of the water," he added.Crocodile numbers have exploded across 
Australia's tropical north since the species was protected b

a statewide gay marriage fight in California. Snider said some religious 
leaders have been threatened with lawsuits for declining to perform same-sex 
wedding ceremonies.Dean Inserra, head pastor of the 1,000-member City Church 
Tallahassee, based in Florida, said he does not want to be alarmist, 
but his church is looking into how best to address the issue.Inserra 
said he already has had to say no to gay friends who 
wanted him to perform a wedding ceremony."We have some gay couples that 
attend our church. What happens when they ask us to do their 
wedding?" Inserra said. "What happens when we say no? Is it going 
to be treated like a civil rights thing?"Critics, including some gay Christian 
leaders, argue that the changes amount to a solution looking for a 
problem."They seem to be under the impression that there is this huge 
movement with the goal of forcing them to perform ceremonies that violate 
their freedom of religion," said Justin Lee, executive director of the Gay 
Christian Network, a nonprofit that provides support for gay Christians 
and their friends and families and encourages churches to be more welcoming."If 
anyone tried to force a church to perform a ceremony against their 
will, I would be the first person to stand up in that 
church's defense."Thirteen states and the District of Columbia now recognize 
gay marriage.Some Christian denominations, such as the United Church of 
Christ and
