No, because centuries and centuries of one semantic convention should not have to be changed. [/quote]

But things do change. Our language changes to reflect that (unless you're French, I suppose).

For most of us, when we "roll up" the window in our cars, it involves a button, not a handle we actually turn. When I was a kid, "looking up [a piece of information]" involved printed books. For my daughter, that phrase is more likely to involve the computer. Heck "cut and paste" used to actually mean cutting and pasting, not simply a series of keystrokes. The meaning of words and phrases changes constantly in an evolving culture. [/quote]

You are correct. Could we just keep this one thing, just ONE thing?  Man and woman, period, end of sentence. Just like Obama/Dumbass believed four years ago. [/quote]

No.  You cannot keep this one thing.  It is not yours to keep.  And frankly, there have been too many points in our history where someone just like you would have pleaded with us to keep "just this one thing", except it was another "one thing".

You get to define the Sacrament in your own church the way that you want.  That is yours.  The law is everyone's.  And nothing uttered by a Justice of the Peace affects any sacramental institution under your control.  The law and religion should never have been intertwined in this way, and it's time to fix it.[/quote]
