  • If you have marriage something beyond a man and a woman than anything goes. The fact that a woman married you is an example of the institution itself beinguseless. Instead of making worthless vids you should get a job instead of leaching off everybody else.

  • how long until this vote takes place?

  • @elind85 By the end of feb/first of march.

  • There was a news story on TV. About a lesbian couple that came from Florida to get married in Canada. Then they wanted a divorce and were told they were not legally married.

  • @GodlessManitoban 0_0 weird.

  • I was going to mention something along the lines of what johncrwarner did. The question arises that marriage places special considerations to a couple that individuals don't get. Should there be such special considerations? I guess it comes down to asking what marriage is. Is it an agreement between people? Is there something about this agreement that changes how each of the members of the group should be regarded by anyone with respect to their treatment within society? It seems a good question

  • @RichardRoy2 Good thoughts,ill try to address them tomorrow(Monday)

  • @h8red42 Thank you. I always find your thinking stimulating. I look forward to it.

  • There could be a case that marriage is not the job of the state and is solely the area of religious or secular organisations.

    That does eliminate straight marriage as well and legislation could be passed to declare everyone not married in the eyes of the state.

    What do you think of that?

  • @johncrwarner Good thoughts,I will think about them along with Richards above,put up a vid on Monday(tomorrow)

  • @h8red42

    By the way I am in a same sex marriage so this is a hypothetical. I would argue that the root problem is that the English marriage practice that the USA inherited was that pastors / priests / rabbis etc. do the state's work for them. In most of Europe you have a marriage at the town hall and then if you want a religious service - this is also true for the civil union in the UK. I think the splitting of the task removes the religious from the sphere of government.
