Despite the fact your religion didn't invent the idea, despite the fact that historically many cultures had no issue with it, despite the fact that the concept has undergone continual adjustment and has never been set in stone.
What this really, really boils down to, is that you demand that only your definition is valid which is based upon your private belief that you have the "right religion", despite the many religions, and non-religious views in the world.
This has nothing to do with the issue of gay marriage at all. This is all to do with control. You want your religion to have the power, and all other viewpoints to be subservient to your religions views, even in a country which does not count your religion as its state religion.
You want to talk about a hidden agenda. Yours is plastered behind a thin flaking veneer of respect for your cult, and hides a multitude of sins and hatred.
Come out and say it, be honest. You believe yours is the one true religion, and all should bow to its eminence. That's what you WANT to say, but know that you can't.
I'm only surprised it took you so long to make spiteful and inaccurate comparisons to bestiality and paedophilia.
No, I simply want the definition of marriage to remain and not be redefined. Can you cite any instance of same sex unions historically being defined as marriage?
