cool man thanks for clarifying... i used the word "him" because "it" is reffered as "him" in both the bible and the quran.. its all good.. i like the hindu view the best, how they divide god into different parts to be able to worship and see all the different sides of him/her/it. |
I honestly know nothing about the hindu religion so I can't comment...although I have to say that I personally don't like extreme religious ppl of any religion...IMO religion has done much more harm than good in this world |

marriage started out as the legal transfer of property and ownership. Oddly enough if you think about this it still is. |
C'mon Jay.
Marriage is cited back in the book of Genisis. |

Religion itself does not do harm. Every religion promotes peace. It's the religious leaders and such that do "harm" using religion as the scapegoat. |

Yeah that's also true...there are just too many people believing in things blindely...
I can't believe im going to quote Ed the Sock - but he once said "...WTF there have been more people killed in the name of God than anything else...What about Satan? I thought HE was the bad guy..." Sad but true |

This is what our politicians will be debating on if they get into power? And people wonder why there are less voting turnouts.
You gotta ask though why married couples get all these benefits. If 2 people living together is more beneficial to society than a single person, then all the more reasons to give same sex couples these benefits.
Religion and government are 2 separate institutions. If the religion's dogma states that marriage is only between a man and a woman, then who are we to try and reform divine church laws. If you don't like it, start your own offshoot. That's what King Henry VIII did. And the Anglicans turned out fine. Also, any religion should always respect life.
If 2 people really love each other though, they shouldn't care whether religion approves or not as long as no harm is being done to them. There's nothing that can prevent unmarried couples to live happily as if they really are married. (Except maybe conservative parents) |

| ^ Its not about looking for religious approval. Its about getting the same benefits and rights as heterosexuals. |
