Lord hasn't this rattled a few cages.
Marriage is a formal union of loving people, with different connotations
between cultures. Islam allows 4 wives, Solomon had 1000 and
someone else allows polyandry (multiple husbands).
If same sex marriages had the same divorce, spousal support,
child support (for IVF or adopted kids), and all the other obligations
cast during a heterosexual marriage, why not?
We don't have to like our neighbours, just be civil and keep the
peace.
I suspect we have a few rabble rousers pouring volotiles on the
fire just to keep the heat going.
Pixies is the most inclusive place I know, with a real sense of demanding
a "fair go" for all, regardless of race, gender, sexual preference
and if any of the discussion members of this thread are unhappy
with this, then maybe they're just in the wrong thread.
BTW, when these smoke-screen issues are brought forward
by the pollies, ask what they are hiding behind it. You won't like it.
