Same sex marriage

[StatCrux]

A general rule is invalidated by an exception.

Really? So if a gym had a general rule admitting both men and women except for Thursday night which is women only, does the Thursday night exception invalidate the general rule admitting both sexes into the club? Or does the general rule still remain? I think anyone with half a brain can see that exceptions do not invalidate general rules, rather the exception proves the rule!

Your whole concept of a 'general rule' is invalid.
