    No. If the marriage (however one chooses to interpret the meaning) is consensual, then there is no issue.

    Oh, and couldn't have Cook come up with something else than rehashing the "Crazy Ones"?

    Every single species that is known to practice sexual reproduction has also been observed practicing same sex behavior. Only one one species is judgmental about it. But people are just sure it is natural behavior that that ends a civilization. Pathetic.

    Right, but have you seen those flipping Amoebas? All these years after convincing us they didn't do it, these damn scientists are now admitting they will join with any other amoeba they wish, filthy little cells! They'll not be welcome in the Carolinas any more! :D

    I laughed when I read your first post in this thread, because I knew you were lying, and planned to obsessively refresh this thread even after your statement of "this is my only post". How pathetic. No doubt, that one will not be your last either. 

    If AI deleted posts, and I assume they were so nasty they deserved to be deleted. They have a right to do so. 

    AI has actually deleted a lot of my posts, but not when I'm saying anything vicious, just when I mention Christianity. I've gone to my profile to see if they're there, but they go missing from there, too.

    Right and there goes most of the scientific community. I'm guessing you don't read too many science journals though. :p

Full stop.

    That's weird I was lucky enough to take part in a massively long very intellectually stimulating from all sides thread last year, that was all about religion, Christianity included and nothing was deleted.

    But there's all the contractual responsibilities and restrictions that the government mediates in regard to marriage.

    I'm quite sure when those that don't believe / understand science eventually have to face to truth on that subject they will convince themselves God did it to punish humans for gay marriage. :D How's that for topically on message?

    At the state level. Not the federal.

    Mmm... no. Some religious leaders certainly do make out like bandits though.

    So if it should only be recognized at the State level would any marriage be null and void once you cross state lines?
