"By altering the marriage law from being exclusively for one man and one woman into something else, you are saying that whatever reason exists behind that law is invalid. "


I'm curious....I've looked, but I can't find anything that specifically says that marriage MUST consist of one male and one female. Maybe I'm not looking in the right place, or maybe it's just an assumption that's been around for so long that it's not questioned. If anyone can find where it says "marriage is only to be between a man and a woman," or something similar, please direct me to it, because this assumption is one of the problems I have with this whole to-do.


Secondly, people seem to forget that there's a separation of church and state for a reason. Religion has no place in politics, and it is religion that inspires the "anti-gay" opinion.

If the church doesn't want to let them get married, there's no reason that Domestic Unions shouldn't be allowed. Get a JP and do the deed. People need to attend to their own business and let others attend to theirs. They're not hurting anyone, so what's the problem?


And there is a limit to how close genetically we can marry because of the possible genetic results. That's a valid reason. Just because you don't like someone's sexual preference is NOT a valid reason.


And as far as multiple marriage, I see it the same way that I see open marriages: What's the point? Why be forced to support these extra wives, or husbands, and children, if all you want to do is sleep with more than one person? Just DO it. There's no point in getting married.
