Why do you always want to describe anything you don't approve of as "DISCRIMINATION"?

Men and woman are different - it's just the way God made us! IT has nothing to do with DISCRIMINATION!

When will you get that through your skull??






And as we keep pointing out, but you continue to ignore, it does not matter if two things are different.

As WE keep pointing out - yes it does, when it comes to marriage and many other social institutions.

Otherwise polygamy and prostitution would not be illegal



A jew is different from a christian.
But the law still treats them the same.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Providing they conform to the same rules, as per marriage



That's what I love about people who argue about "damaging marriage".
In the end, their rush to turn to requirements which have nothing to do with the fundamentals of marriage demonstrate PRECISELY a desire to "damage" marriage.

What?




Love is irrelevant.
Being able to have a baby is tantamount.
And THAT is the "sacredness" of it all...
I could not disagree more

Love between husband and wife is vitally important to the success of a marriage. Especially if they decide to have a family.

But love is not the only pre-requisite for marriage

For example, you may love your sister, but that doesn't qualify you to marry her.

And so another one of your cuddly-feely generalisations gets shot down
