Hey, I'm using your source. The #1 Definition -- "A union between two persons having the customary but usually not the legal force of marriage: a same-sex marriage. "

Well there is a difference. Everything means different things to everyone one of us. The=by the dictionary.

I think we've sunk to new lows on the issue when all we have left is arguing over which definition of marriage is "more" correct.

Do you really think that the sub-letters correspond to "most used"? So the further down you go the more "hazy" things get? Is this what they teach you in GA schools?
I feel like I should take offense that you think my marriage to my wife which is common-law is further down the list at (C) and must be a little more "hazy" than your chosen definition.

I guess I'm just trying to point out that the definition of the term is relative, so why should one group of people be able to define it for someone else?
Sure, it took a lot of posts...

Wait a second... you mean "marriage" can have more than one definition? Even to the same person? I'm actually A, B, C and D.
No way?! Really? I can be all those at once?
I'm glad you see things our way now, Kremit.

Yeah, I already saw it that way. Gay marriage still isn't A. Man if I was a politician, can you imagine me saying my position on it. "Refer to definition A".

No, gay marriage isn't "A". But this isn't like a test where you have to meet all 4 definitions. By definition, and I'm just using the source that you brought up, if any one of those 4 are met it is a "marriage". I can be (B) and not (A) or be (C) and not necessarily fit into (B)... so why does a (D) have to meet (A) too?
The point is that the world isn't black and white. And you can't fit everyone and everything into neat little columns. It just doesn't work.
