Marriage

[woodface]

Found this remark somewhere on lj: "Marriage is defined by God, not by Man."

I really suggest that said persons who use this type of banner look up the actual history of marriage (which I should do myself too). Sure, church made it their own but marriage is not something typical to christianity. The evolutions in marriage in christianity have shifted as well. I think this is very much a thing made by man and not by god.

Yes, I'm still here and kinda too nervous to do anything. EEEEEEEEEEEE!

See...and I can't bring myself to care about whether folks marry one person or multiple people, whether they marry folks of the same or different genders, whether they marry someon from in or outside of their families--so long as everyone involved is an adult and consenting...I just don't think it's my business.

But then...I don't have a normal response to these ideas.

Oh I don't care if somebody marries their goat as long as the goat can consent. The main issue with polygamy is that the dad marries his 12 year old daughter to his 45 year old brother.

Exactly. Yes. :-)
