You say the church co-opted the term, I say it belonged to the church first. The church didn't create it. God did. That is where our paths separate.<br /><br />I'm very sorry you felt I was being sarcastic. I actually try very hard never to be sarcastic. I don't think it's remotely witty or funny, and I have trouble understanding when people are being sarcastic to me. I always think they are being serious. It's like it doesn't translate. So, if I came off as sarcastic, I'm quite saddened by that.<br /><br />I was actually just using a more "obvious" example to illustrate how if you decide to define something in a wrong way that is your own fault. Does that make sense? Like if I defined a couch as something with wheels that you drove around in, and insisted on calling my car, a couch, people would be confused by that.

Churches can choose weather they performe them, but I feel as a wholly secular entity the state should have no basis to deny one sect of society a privilage that it affording others based on the fact that some religious people find it repugnant. That is why black people are free today and can vote, also why women have so many rights today that they didn't have one hundred years ago. And compairing the union of two loving humans to placing two things (and it would take more than placing them together to "marry" them. Just because the church has coopted the term doesn't mean that they created marrage...hence the reason marriages come along with very serious legal documents, not religious ones, secular ones. And by the way...look up the actual definitions of words before you justify your position with sarcasm...marriage, or to marry is the joining of two or more sepperate things into one. I hope you understand that sarcasm is not whit it is demeaning to the person you are speaking to, sarcasm relys on a lak of intelligence in the person it is directed, making it an insultWanderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12384347526625976847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-267796673553168103.post-5624918463360196952012-08-20T17:35:00.047-04:002012-08-20T17:35:00.047-04:00Oh wow, Wander.

I probably did and then closed it before I proved I wasn't a robot. <br />What I think I said before was. Yes, if you define marriage as a binding legal agreement with the state about the joining of two households through the union of two consenting adults, then yes, gay marriage exists. Similarly I could define marriage as a flat thing made out of rather thick material one could use to take cookies out of an oven. In which case my pot holder is a marriage too. I mean, yes, if you change the definition of marriage, it can be anything you like. However, that isn't what marriage is.

It's just that that isn't what marriage is. That's what I meant. Marriage as it was created can't happen between two people of the same gender. <br />Since the church handed out the ability to bind two consenting adults in some form of agreement to the state and called it marriage; however, it's really come to mean anything we'd like it to mean.
