Originally posted by Davo:The amendments are written as a promotion of heterosexual marriage, not a banning of gay marriage. There is a difference between "marriage should only be between a man and a woman" and "marriage cannot be between two men or two women".
I'm sure everyone in Texas is glad that an exclusionary definition of marriage was placed on the books simply out of kindness to the heterosexual couples. The fact that it bans gay marriage is simply a coincidence
