| warlord74 said: Your the one who asserted that Jesus never spoke out against homosexuality which is incorrect. Then you go on some rant about how irrational the bible is trying avoid the fact that your facts were wrong. If you got that point wrong maybe your wrong on your view of homosexual behavior. Think about it. Marriage is the unique institution that unites mother and father with their biological offspring. Do we need an institution in society that unites children with their father and mother? Does the state have an public interest in promoting this type of family relationship. What is the public interest of recognizing of a committed relationship of two people versus the assertions above? How does this unite mother and father with their biological offspring? |
Jesus didn't. Kind of embarassing that you don't even understand your own religion properly. Then again if you didn't spend all your time using illogical intolerance, maybe you'd be a little more enlightened on the matter by now.
Marriage started out as a contract of sale for a father to use their daughters hand in marriage in exchange for other things. Like contracts, it was binding (hence divorce was considered a breach of contract and wrong). Your definition of marriage is a joke, since 1. Not all marriages bear children, 2.Some marriages have parents who are not the biological parents of children, 3. There are single parents out there who have kids who lives just as fulfilling of lives. Your sense of view on marriage incredibly narrow-minded. That being said, the church NOR the state has any right to say who can or cannot become one's family.
