[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]in order of importance: 1. because we consider marriage to be a religious sacrament with traditions going back thousands of years. 2. because once you chance the definition of marriage, you open up very plausible arguments for polygamy. 3. because we consider the traditional family to be society's ideal. how doesn't the civil union get you where you need to be? same rights as a spouse. just don't call it "marriage".[/quote] Great. No one is trying to redefine the sacrament in your church. But the laws on the books are also called marriage. We'd be fine just relabeling that "civil union" and eliminating the legal term "marriage" for everyone. I assume that would be fine for you since you can still have your sacramental marriage. What's the argument against that? [/quote]
