You obviously know nothing about family law.

I don't, and that's a fact.


Thank you for your intellectual honesty. At least we can disagree without
beng disagreeable.


Look up rights of dower & courtesy. Hint, most states have laws
codifying these rights.
Check community property states. Maybe then, you will know what is
referred to.

When you have time look up the above. It will open your eyes to the rights
gays don't have.

Marriages should always be gay, and in my experience they generally are.
Lots of rice throwing, a bouquet tossing, and reception afterward with
pretty girls in pastel dresses lining up to be photographed with the
principals etc., then eating, drinking and dancing afterward. Nothing
could be gayer than all that, none of the gay people are denied anything
and it all works out very well.


It was not so long ago that being gay meant just that. This PC business can
drive you nuts.

What do you believe to be the basis for the state having an interest in
marriage?

The basis is the law of the state. To be married, the couple must
apply to the state for a license to do so. If the state won't grant a
marriage license, then the couple cannot legally marry.

ROFL. That is just soooooooooooo gloriously circular.

GOEBBELS?! I'm reasonably sure that Goebbels, like his leader, was left

And harrington takes a lesson from Goebbels and resorts to the Big
Lie. Nazis were extreme right wing and it is only American fascists
who try to claim that the nazis were the socialists that they hated.

Boo ****ing hoo. You seem to believe that a religion should be a
malleable thing that should change this way or that according to
whatever is in vogue at the time. Assuming there really were such an
entity as the Judeo-Christian-Islamic God, you think He would feel it
that important to stay in fashion?


But they do change. Even the Bible has been rewritten several times over
the years. And no sects of Christianity have remained the same over the
years....They have all loosened up to accommodate the modern mores.

Excuse me sir!
The Bible has not changed in over 5,000 years. There are millions of the
Jewish faith who agree with that statement. You may believe otherwise, but
you must recognize my beliefs in the interest of intellectual honesty.

Are you telling me that, "King James" is over 5000 years old? Give me a
break! Every time I go in a motel room I look up my favorite bible quote
(Ecc. 10: 19) to see if it has been removed, and I don't believe I have ever
read it the same way twice.....It has probably been completely removed by
now......

Yes, and our government has defined marriage, so all non-felons should be
allowed to participate in it. snip

In what State are felons not permitted to marry?

--
Peter
I was speaking of the general fact that constitutional rights are available
to all non felons......Marriage is, or at least should be, a constitutional
right, since the government has added it to their IRS form 1040......

Doctors, not insurance companies should control medicine.

Yes, within reasonable limits.

Smirk. Rightards are ever eager to impose government or coroporations
between doctor and patient.

Some conditions are astronomically expensive
to treat, and the money has to come from somewhere. Insurance companies on
average have only about a 3.5% profit margin,

Rightard disinformation. It's actually double that.

At least you have a home, since many of your political brothers are also
atheists, and tolerant of same. But I am truly a, "Man without a
country". My conservative heroes, like Rush, are intolerant of atheists,
and insult us on a regular basis.

That says it all: Rush, the entertainer, by his onw admission - hero -
great oxymoron. \begin sarcastic tag You have really proven your ability
to think and analyze. \end sarcastic tag

Ho hum.....Kill the messenger.....So what else is new? Tell you what,
Jack....When you can make 10% as much money as Rush makes every year in your
entire life, then you can reasonably afford to disparage him....Otherwise, I
believe I'll just go with his stuff, pal......

After all, why should graham have to pay for anything anymore? So
what if the government he enjoys costs money. Somebody _else_ will
cover the cost, right?
