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.

I disagree. The marriage between gays is a matter of law. That is all that is relevant. Whether *you* consider it to be a marriage is irrelevant as whether *you* consider a corporation to be a person.

The only question is whether gays should be allowed to enter into exactly the same legal agreements to have their bond legally recognized.
Dropping the definition thing I see. Good. It was a loser argument from the beginning.
I understand that it is a matter of law that gays can get married. The definition still had to be changed for that to happen. There is a significant part of the populace who preferred to keep the 10,000 year old definition. Which brings me back to my point I have made over and over--opposing the change does not entail bigotry. Making that argument is impossible.
