airforce_freak6678 Matasoga Upholding gay marriage bans on religious grounds is a fallacy unless you want the government to also stop recognizing the marriages of all atheists. That is not all they would have to do... If bans could be upheld and subsequently created on religious grounds the following would need to be banned: -The ingestion of pork -The teaching of Evolution (outlawed in some US states) -round haircuts -football (pig skin) -Fortune telling -Tattoos -Gardens with multiple different plants -Polyester -Divorce -People with out testicles or a p***s (this is referring to men not women) into church. -Wearing Gold -Shellfish (such as Lobster) -A women defending herself by grabbing a man's gentles -Shaving -Cursing -Associating with menstruating women -Gossip Just to list a few things.
Of course. Marriage no longer should be a religious institution. I was not advocating ban on any marriages. Indeed I was trying to show the problems that resulted from such backwards thinking. |

I am aware of this, my post serves to further your argument. I agree with you. |
