"Jesus would rather kill, not marry, gay people" - Franklin Graham

If there's no right to the definition of a word, then why are you so uptight about the definition changing?

And, while changing the definition of marriage may not have been the only way to ensure rights and privileges, I believe it was the most egalitarian given the way marriage actually works in this country (which you continually and conveniently ignore). You get to keep your traditional marriage, and same-sex couplings are elevated to the same stature. Win-win.

I trust I don't need to go into a deep dive of how "separate but equal isn't equal" works re: civil unions.
