Once again.... I wasn't making a comparison. I do think they are different, and different from two people of the opposite sex being joined in marriage.
Quote:They are different, and therefore not equal. I would argue that these things do not all need to be treated the same, because they are different, and only one meets the definition of marriage.The one where two adults enter into a contractual arrangement? Right?
Quote:And you keep using the word "absurd". I agree, and would point out, that is the intention of an argument from absurdity. That following the same reasoning, leads to an absurd conclusion in another instance. When I use the same arguments, and you call it absurd.... I agree. That was the point. I would also point out, that similar rebuttals where used (arguing that those things don't fit the definition of marriage). Same arguments, same rebuttals... only the subjects changed (and who was arguing what).The subjects are not alike, as you agree above, and gay marriage fits the definition of marriage in all ways relevant to us law. This put;s inclined christers in a pickle. They can say "godsaidso" to which anyone familiar with our laws will laugh...or they can attempt, and fail, to justify their opposition outside of their religious beliefs.
What to do....what....to....do?
