One step closer to joining the ranks of divorcee

I guess I question the politicians as well.

They are often one and the same.

We still have people up here that want to change the law back. The reason I heard from one bible thumper is that they will force catholic priests to marry homosexuals (whcih is untrue), so it should be outlawed completely.

Thats interesting, I'm sure that gay folks really want to get married by a person that believes they should rot in hell.

However, I have no opinion either way and am ordained by the Universal Life Church and will marry you for either 50 bucks or some pizza.

CLASS ALL THE WAY
 
So zengirl, can you officiate the wedding? I thought you said you could. Dharma, you could probably as well, couldn't you? I mean after chim and I get the license?

not true. priests can refuse to marry STRAIGHT couples, let alone gay ones.

I know, but people grasp at straws. I have a relative that believes it cheapens the term marriage for straight people, but it's okay for them to be "life partners" in a "union" but not "spouses" in "marriage".

I can only shake my head at them so much....

Gythja has a nice ring to it.

Or The Venerable, but Apostle of Humanity is pretty killer, too.

The whole word soup is the effing problem. Gay marriage is a Frankenstein of different shit that should be treated separately. I'm not entirely sure I want the government involved in "marriage" at all. Subsidising those who procreate or adopt is one thing, and so is defining who is in the inner circle of rights for things like hospital visits, and then again another one for how health benefits transfer. We're just too ADD to see each of them through.
 
What does dbzeag's wedding night and me getting divorced have in common?


Someone is guaranteed to take it in the rear.

Would it be wrong for me to chuckle at that?

What do dbzeag's wedding night and b_sinning's getting divorced have in common?

No one is getting laid by a woman that night.
