It’s Time to Formally Declare America A Christian Nation.

It's not a marriage. Marriage implies the general capability of producing children. Two men can't do that.

It may not be a marriage to you, but I guarantee you it's a marriage to the couple involved and unfortunately everyone now has a better understanding of what marriage should have been all along.

It's not a marriage. Marriage implies the general capability of producing children. Two men can't do that.

First it does then it doesn't. Pick one.

And the two men can get a surrogate to carry a child to term. Two lesbians can get a sperm donor. Or either couple can adopt.

Your argument is null and void.

 

[Mashmont]

Then same sex couples are fine marrying. And they CAN have children, via a surrogate or a sperm donor.

lol. That's not biologically having children together. Do I really have to explain that?

It's not a marriage. Marriage implies the general capability of producing children. Two men can't do that.

So can a man and a woman beyond child bearing age get married?

 

[WinterBorn]

Bingo. There you go. That's what I've been saying.

And those who couldn't have children were still married.
Those who decided not to have children were still married.

First it does then it doesn't. Pick one.

And the two men can get a surrogate to carry a child to term. Two lesbians can get a sperm donor. Or either couple can adopt.

Implies not requires. You need a dictionary?
Two guys can't make a baby together. Fact.

 

[WinterBorn]

Which is not a requirement, remember?

 

[Mashmont]

No, ergo, I used the word 'general', meaning most in their gender subgroups could have children together.

 

[Mashmont]

General capability of the gender subgroups. Do you need that explained?

 

[Stann]

Nobody said they were. For the third time, the MW definition of marriage prior to 2015 presupposed children but didn't require them

Actually dictionaries in the Netherlands reflected the expanded definition of marriage in 2001. They were the first nation to extend marriage to include gay couples. The Constitution demanded it full equality under the law that's what we're supposed to have here too.

 

[Mashmont]

Right. Millennia of people were wrong, but the 'enlightened" Marxist screwballs of the last eight years are right.

 

[AsherN]

No, ergo, I used the word 'general', meaning most in their gender subgroups could have children together.

So 2 elderly people can't get married? How bloody sick are you?

Yeah Scandinavia sure has gone to hell.

 

[AsherN]

Millenia of people were also fine with polygamy.

 

[Mashmont]

Sorry you can't read.

 

[Mashmont]

Millenia of people were also fine with polygamy.

Most people think Sotomayor, Kagan, and Ginsburg were dumb as doornails. And now to think they were smarter and more enlightened than thousands of years of great theogians, scholars, and yes, even Jesus Christ Himself.

So now you're allowing exceptions to your crazy rule about marriage. I looked up the Catholic churches definition of marriage and although it isn't a requirement it does mention the raising and education of children and their indoctrination into the religion and Jesus Christ. That part about for the well-being of the spouses could easily apply to same-sex couples, it's too bad the church has such bigoted and hateful dogma in place against homosexuals.

 

[Stann]

Actually he didn't say that, he's just implied it all along. Let's see how he answers my direct question, if you even bothers. I'm glad you asked the same question. Let's see what his reply is now.

 

[WinterBorn]

Yeah Scandinavia sure has gone to hell.

And yet several Scandinavian countries are among the happiest places to live.

The RCC isn't bigoted against gays. Just immoral sexual behavior. This goes back millennia all through the bible, both OT and NT. But today's Marxist left changed the rules eight years ago, and they know better than God.
