[quote] [b]bitdamaged said:[/b] Also what pisses me off about this debate is that the major opposition to it seems to come from religious organizations who somehow feel their institution of marraige is somehow being diluted. If you don't what your religious commitment diluted you never should have seen it codified in law in a country that has a very clear distiction between the seperation of church and state. [/quote] A sem-important note on that issue: Marriage in the american colonies was for several decades a purely civic issue, preformed by an appointee of the courts. The church did not get involved until significantly further down the road. In addition, Marriage has existed in society in one for or another since before the judeo-christian god was written about, and has existed with and without religion in all human societies. The religous aspect should have nothing whatsoever to do with it. [url=http://in-dented.com/sigs.html][img]http://in-dented.com/sigs/knot_sig_32.gif[/img][/url]
