Slavery was also a pillar of society for hundreds of years, we redefined that important part of society.


marriage was also around before the bible came about.

I support peace in Israel and Palestine. The governments and people in power on all sides are an absolute disgrace, and their unwillingness to pursue peace is a disservice to the people they are meant to be serving. The status quo is not simply untenable; it is unquestionably unacceptable.

BULLSHIT

Show me some real facts. Marriage has existed for thousands of years, and have included polygamy and also previously homosexual marriages. Learn to history.

What he is saying is not in fact bullshit, but it is somewhat ethno(religious)-centric and that doesn't mean that such traditions should stagnate while the rest of the world progresses.


Though it is bullshit. At least partly. Considering that a million (exaggeration) different definitions of marriage has existed, i don't see why the Christian definition should have any significant impact on the decision on who should be able to marry.

It's not "my church" i believe in god but i don't attend a church. I would say my argument is centrist,

Yeah, no. That's not centrist at all.

:rofl: Argumentum ad populum? Try harder.

Samdor wrote:(the country i have been referring to) and the legalization of gay marriage goes against their religious convictions,

So why are some churches willing to preform SSMs, hm? Why are some churches okay with it? Hmm??

Samdor wrote:homosexuals are arguably more closely involved because this impacts whether they can be married.

Well DUH?

Samdor wrote:My personal belief as previously stated is that this should remain a state decision due to different concentrations of conservative Christians in different areas of the USA. Also I have no problem with atheists. I never said I think that atheists aren't married.

You implied that churches are the ones involved in marriages. If that were the case, atheists aren't really married.
