What is your point?

A black person is more likely to commit crimes during his entire lifetime, so should we not give them the same rights as white people because of that?

I define marriage as something that makes people happy to some extend, and you want to exclude a huge amount of people from that happiness.

So, tens of thousands of years of it being a formalized family unit for having and raising children should be abandoned because you feel that it has "something" to do with happiness ...

Personally, I believe it is fair to argue that the same laws and protections granted by the government should be granted to same sex couples by providing civil unions (or the government getting out of Marriage all together), it is another to say that cultural traditions that started at the beginning of human history should be abandoned because people feel left out.

What if those cultural traditions are discriminating? Should we still not abandon them just to show respect for the ignorant people who lived thousands of years ago?

Take a close look at number 5 and number 6 in my signature.
