re: #61 Kragar (Proud to be Kafir)

This is the sort of muddled thinking that these people engage in: a church can define “holy matrimony” as being between a man and a woman only.

But the civil institution of marriage is not identical with holy matrimony as described by many churches. For a long time, Catholics, for example, did not recognize divorce and continued to consider divorced couples as being united in matrimony.

I do not care if it is called marriage or civil union or whatever, I believe that people of the same sex should be able to enter into the same the rights, obligations and priveleges that go to any and all married couples.
