And tell me its not hypocritical to want to call it "marriage", which is an arrangment that was instituted by god in the bible, and in that SAME bible it clearly condemns homosexuality.
If homos want to be together, thats their thing, but don't start calling it "Marriage", because its not. Plain and simple.
Your opinion is noted ... but what isn't subject to your opinion is the origins of the concept of marriage - it was part of the human experience long before the bible.
The bible may define marriage for Christians - but that's a far cry from defining marriage for the rest of the non-Christian world, or for that matter, for the purposes of extending civil rights or privileges.
