Hyperbole - while I do not have specific examples handy, marriage is very much a concept that has spanned essentially all of human societies. The native americans, all manner of asians with no concept of the judeo-christian god, all sorts of african tribal organizations, etc. In puritan New England, marriage was specifically a governmental affair, removed from the church. And as shaeon more importantly mentions - the concept of marriage is one that carries on today by all manner of people, including atheists, satanists, homosexuals, pious churchgoers, low-life scumbags, and any and all other manner of person that can be thought of. The idea that one small segment of our human population should be excluded from this concept based simply on matters of gender, while bandying about the "moral failure" of such a union is just preposterous beyond the ability to be described... {{edit, just to clarify - hyperbole: that last part is not directed at you, and I am not implying in any way that you are suggesting otherwise....}} [small](Edited by [url=http://www.ozoneasylum.com/user/163]DL-44[/url] on 10-08-2006 00:10)[/small]
