Man, it isn't worth it. There has been essentially several thread like this the past couple weeks with the same shit being spewed back and forth. Most I would like to point out, with no credible sources and anything from most people to consider a credible source in this argument is wikipedia, half the time to a page that isn't even relevant. I have come to a conclusion though from all of this. Atheists are stupid.

oh and

2013, deal with it.

atheism is the next evolution of christianity just like eating pork and drinking beer is the next evolution is islam (remember, we had a 1000 year head start on them).

i'm pretty sure marriage already meets this definition, even without any revisions

it's complicated. on the state level, many definitions include language that prohibits marriage between anyone other than a man and a woman. federally, with DOMA overturned, there's no restrictive definition, but there are a variety of federal laws that make no sense for homosexual couples as they were written with hetero marriage in mind.

it was a pervasive assumption that permeated through all levels of law

the problem is that all of these laws are recent. as in written in the last 20 years. homophobes redefined marriage to exclude same sex relations. now it's time to undo their damage.

so now you're against single parents, too? or is the legality of single parent families another exception?

Everyone with a brain is against single parents. It's pretty fucking obvious that two people are going to do a better job at most things than one, and parenting is no exception. A quick google reveals a boatload of studies that children from single parent homes are more violetn, more likely to be abused, more likely to be incarcerated when adults, more likely to be fat, more likely to do drugs, less likely to do well in school, etc. The fairy tale of the brave single mom is just that: a fairy tale.

What does doma have to do with anything. Hence someone linking a wikipedia page the was irrelevant. Apparently that link made what I said wrong right? Exactly, shut the fuck up, again.

there's been a lot of discussion about changing the definition of marriage, but the definition of marriage was actually changed by doma in 1996 to try to define marriage as opposite sex only. it didn't work. doma is clearly pertinent to the discussion.

moran.
