Disgusting. How much lower can humanity stoop. Are we to make bestiality a sacrament next? I mean if you love your dog why not.
I cringe and morn for the US.
Well, your imaginary friend can weep and your imaginary enemy can celebrate.
Now, if only the Catholic church would carry out a wholesale jailing of its pedo priests.
Oh, and bestiality IS actually legal in a number of US states - mostly in the South . . .
Imagine that, bestiality in the bible belt...

The definition of marriage as a fundamental right, one that is guaranteed by the 14th amendment, is what I was pointing at. If you agree that even with his definition of marriage he was right, now you have to provide a reason that two men don't qualify for equal protection and due process under the law, and why this fundamental right becomes exclusionary.
I keep stating over and over that I believe equal rights should be given to all. That's why I suggested a legal civil union which applies to all Americans, straight or gay, who enter into that contract. Marriage would be a private matter. In that way, government would not be redefining an institution that is so important to so many citizens, yet it would confer equal status and benefits under the law to all who qualify. What is so terrible about that? Marriage came about long before any government was involved.
You say that as if marriage and Christianity are mutually exclusive.
You do know Christians didn't invent marriage, right?
