If you had a toaster, it probably would.  Since you do it all the time.  Only using the word 'sin'.

That’s not ad hominem. Unless perhaps, I just start calling you a sinner, completely apart from the discussion and with no context in the conversation.

The illogical Christian answer: a gay man has just as much right to marry a woman as a straight man does, just as a gay woman has just as much right to marry a man as a straight woman does.

If you purposely show your own ignorance, you will be called out on your stupidity so that others do not follow such ill paths as you.

So, I take it you think those arguments where invalid.

Clearly, Mormons are the wrong kind of Christians.   Cool

I explained to my wife what our resident Christians are trying to use as arguments here. She had trouble believing I was serious.

So she thinks it's silly when applied to single people or those who love toasters?     Is she toasterphobic?   If she says she doesn't hate toasters, don't believe her, and call her more nasty names.  Ask her if single people are second class citizens.

RR, if you want to marry yourself, by all means, knock yourself out. Your augment aboit toasters though, is just idiocy. Of course, it's what we've come to expect from theists hiding bigotry behind the thin veil of religious belief. Not what I really expected from you, but still less than a surprise.

I admit, I made up the thing about toasters, so I’m guessing it’s probably a low percentage of the population that seeks that level of toaster commitment. But nothing surprises me anymore. And this has nothing to do with what you imagine as bigotry. The question is why do you find it idiotic? Do you find the arguments bad, or are you just a hateful bigot when it comes to toasty appliances. Doesn’t everyone deserve equal rights?
