Re: Oy. This has nothing to do with personal marriages. Yikes.
You didn't read very carefully. I said ALSO with reproduction in mind but my main definition of what qualifies a couple for marriage has always been simply the complementary difference between the sexes. Homosexuals do not qualify for marriage by any conceivable standard.
They qualify for marriage by the most important standard, that they love each other and want to spend their lives together.

Re: Just Wait a Bit
Economic collapse is one of the big ways God judges a nation and we've certainly been on the verge of it for years.
Then explain why some of the richest countries are Islamic countries that were blessed by God with massive oil reserves.

Re: Just Wait a Bit
They are God's instrument of judgment right now, but they'll have their turn at being judged.
This is only proof that you are making it up as you go.

Re: Just Wait a Bit
Not everything is judgment.
IOW, you just make it up as you go along.
If the US bans gay marriage, and then there is a plague that kills a million people, that wasn't a judgement.
If the US allows gay marriage, and then there is a plague that kills a million people, that was a judgement against the US.
That's how it works, does it not?

And that would be the perverse twisting of the First Amendment I'm talking about, which supposedly guarantees Christians freedom to practice our religion without any restriction on being a business owner.
I guess you forgot about the Commerce clause. Congress is allowed to regulate businesses.
If someone claims that their religion prevents them from serving black people, would you support the re-emergence of segregation in this country?
