If you want to take out man and woman, you have made the definition broader. You have changed the meaning. You have changed the definition.
It was NOT in *all* cases. There are counter-examples that have been pointed out to you.
And, besides, this is a *secular* marriage. We *do* get to decide how it is to be defined for *our society*. And the best definition to use is the one I gave.
Once again, do you object to the re-definition of 'person' to include corporate entities? Is that such a violation of previous definitions that it should not be allowed?
Do you mean the examples where there were multiple men and/or women? That was in no way support for your position. For example, in the case of one man multiple wives: were the women married to each other? NO. One person got married MULTIPLE times to the opposite sex. See the difference? No one screwed with the definition of marriage.
A corporation is only considered a person in the eyes of the law in certain circumstances. There is no one on the planet that things that a corporation is actually a person. Red Herring.
