Britain's PM faces gay marriage revolt as plots swirl

HundertzehnGustav · 02-05-13, 06:51 PM

marriage for hetero only here.

marriage,
from my POV is a religious thing.
and IMO religion stinks and is creepy.
maybe IMO marriage stinks and is creepy too.

dunno yet, have not tried, and most likely never will.

officially living together,
for reasons that have nothing to do with religion (PACS) but only to represent an union of homosexuals, is okay with me.
They share a bed, a house, a shower, give them similar tax cuts etc than normal [and i stand by that word] people get when living together and forming a Household.

where i see trouble up ahead is adopting and somehow having children...
There the poo hits the fan... "i got two daddies and my biological mother"
i do not see that end well for the Kids. Not at all.

Why?

do not really know, not in a sense where i can put my Finger on a paragraph or an article.

i guess marriage was done by the church, at the church back in the old times, and not at the town hall / mairie / rathaus.
Therefor Marriage, even though today done in both variants; the official ceremoniy and the optional religious ceremony if desired has, to my mind, its roots in religion.

Gustav, you have it backwards.
If you trawl back to the last major gay marriage topic Haplo kindly produced a link which unfortunately for him destroyed that line of arguement
The early church in rome started getting in on the marriage business which was a civil/governmental matter.
At the end of the day marriage is what it always has been, simply a business contract.

That is what a history book says.
I still associate marriage with church and religion though...
cannot help that feeling.
