[quote=Anonymous][quote=takoma]Alright, I ran an idea up the flagpole (using my iPad, on which I don't happen to be signed in), and obviously nobody saluted.  I'm no Catholic, but a liberal atheist who totally disagrees with Davis's actions.  But I would like to see us moving together rather than apart, so I was hoping for a way to allow the two sides of the issue to live without rancor.

It seems absolutely obvious to me that there are two different ideas of marriage, and I naively thought that my little idea was an easy way to recognize that.  But it seems to have accomplished nothing other than getting me into a fight with those on my side of the issue.

So, if I marry another woman in a Quaker ceremony, are we married or Married?  What if I'm Catholic, but we get married (or Married) at my fiance's Presbyterian church because I didn't get an annulment? What if I'm Hindu, and the person writing about me is Evangelical Christian?

I guess what I'm asking is would someone use the capital if they believed that the m(M)arriage was justifiable or legit, or it up to the M(m)arried people to decide if they consider their vows to be religious.  If it's the latter, then we'll still have Married gay people, so I'm not sure what problem will have been solved.

Also, what do you do if it's a circumstance when you'd be capitalizing anyways?  Do we write a lower case m at the beginning of sentences, or on signs (GET YOUR wEDDING INVITATIONS HERE!)?
