[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Interestingly, neither of the prior PPs is answering the question.  There is no doubt that marriage has taken on various forms across the thousands of years and thousands of world cultures with many different constructs and things permitted and not-permitted.  The OP's question is how many times and when and where before today's current push has marriage taken on the form of that between two individuals of the same sex?[/quote]

So your point is that the definition of marriage has evolved over the centuries, but it must stop evolving now? [/quote]

No.  My point is that those answer continue to deflect the question, as does your answer.  I personally am against redefining marriage to include same-sex marriages.  To my knowledge there are no (or at best a tiny handful) of cultures over the thousands and thousands of years of civilization that including same-sex marriage in their definition of marriage.  Something inside of me says that if all of humankind in all of human history has limited marriage to between men and women, then there is something fundamental about the concept of marriage that crosses all of these boundaries.

Not the OP or her friend, but back to her question if there is anyone who can provide an answer that is actually an answer instead of being argumentative of the right to even ask the question.[/quote]
