Listen, even if you do find an obscure example, the main point I am making is that Christians believe that God ordained marriage as we have viewed it for all of history. You have to have your head up your ass to think that 5 people on the supreme court can redefine such a word/concept--against the majority view of the population--and there would not be any objections.
What does it matter what it was called if it was a communal recognition of rightful union of two people? What do you suppose the word for that would be translated as?
Even back in whatever culture you might find a mention, the concept that it was different would still be clear. You cannot argue that traditional marriage was not one of the primary pillars of every culture. There is no argument that could be made that the few cultures that allowed open same-sex relationships viewed them on par with traditional marriage within the fabric of their society.
