    What a bunch of utter BS. Many couples are unable to have children. Under your "rule" they shouldn't be allowed to be married? LMAO...failed logic.

    I'm saying that I'm against expanding marriage to man-man, woman-woman, man-woman-woman, man-underage girl, man-sheep, etc.

    Nobody have a patent on the word "marriage." Deal with it, live with it.

    There are many similarities between the Islamists and the religious right - regardless of what Mohammed did in Mecca.

    The religious right is like "Islamist lite". They would be more extreme but US society keeps them at bay.

    Never fails. Every time one of these marriage threads comes up, there is always that one completely moronic post about men marrying sheep. I guess it's just where their head is at.

    Fake marriage from fake Christians are much more of an embarrassment. Especially the kind between Trump and his three wives. How many Christians say "I do" only to follow by divorce after? You ain't got nothing here.

    Many conservatives are perverts at heart. See Roy Moore.

    Thanks. You gave me a real laugh on this one. Just what the hell did Barron Trump supposed to learn from the fact that his worthless dad cheated on his mom shortly after his birth?? Funny that.

    A marriage can only be an event between one man and one woman. Other relationships can be called other things like civil unions, living in sin, shacking up, etc but they are not marriage.

    Bad try. :wink:
    I'm aware of that, thanks anyway.
    Of course it is, in the eyes of constitutional illiterates and enemies of America.

    No, it’s opinion, essentially based on nothing other than semantics. Whether he accepts the commonly used definition of the term “gay marriage” or “same-sex marriage” doesn’t impact the commonly used definitions and doesn’t impact the existence of the relationships the terms refer to.

    Parents can be deluded about all sorts of different things and still successfully raise children. Being in a same-sex relationship doesn’t automatically imply delusion though. Believing your personal opinion on the matter automatically implies that is very much a delusion.

    That does not contradict my statements unless you’re asserting that it is impossible for anyone to successfully raise children unless they’re a heterosexual couple who remain married throughout. That would be demonstrably false.

    No .. I totally reject the perversion of the language and the perversion of the culture from the Left in general.

    The derivation of the word "marriage" is to provide a husband OR a wife, not husband AND wife. So from the derivation two men can be married to each other.

    Silly argument anyway

    Reject it all you want. It is law, so yes, you'll just have to live with it.

    Is there currently a push for man-woman-woman, man-underage girl, man-sheep to marry? I haven't heard of this. Is this something that pertains to Texas specifically?

    If you take the long-term view, based on our current trajectory, that's where were headed.

    Don't worry about it. It won't be soon.

    The relationship that ensures the continuation of the species (male-female), and is the pinnacle of all human relationships, deserves special recognition. As of now, it has nothing.

    But we know this is demonstrably false. We have tens of thousands of same sex marriages in this country. There are millions of them worldwide. Marriage no longer means between one mans and one woman.
