They can have a wedding and "marry" each other. There isn't anyone heterosexual or homosexual who has the right to marry any person they love.

How is saying it "opens the door" the same as comparing the two?

The point is, if you're going to redefine something who draws the line on where the definition stops?

So then if someone wants those rights for someone who is merely friend, a co-worker or maybe a cousin, sibling or parent...those are all "marriages" now too? Why?

But your original statement was that if Christians took their book seriously and literally they would be no different than terrorists. Pointing out various Old Testament laws does not prove that.

You still would need to prove the unstated premise that a serious and literal reading of the Bible requires Christians to follow Old Testament law.

But where does the Bible instruct *Christians* to carry out those Old Testament laws? Those passages do no prove that Christians who take their Bible seriously and literally would be doing things like flying airplanes into buildings.

Are you then saying if Christians took the Bible literally they would be killing innocent people to inflict terror? Please show where do you find that in the Christian Bible.

No...I said "everyone" has the right to marry someone of the opposite sex and "no one" has the right to marry someone of the same sex.

I did not say "only homosexuals" or "only heterosexuals".

Not necessarily the same as Jim Crow laws. And while Prop 8 might get overturned that doesn't necessarily mean it should get overturned.

So if someone wants to marry their sibling and law prohibits it, you think that is a case of human rights inequality? Is someone who wants to marry a pet automatically a second class citizen if the law prohibits it? Are they not full citizens living under a law applied equally to everyone?

So currently everyone in Washington state has the same rights: ANYONE can marry someone of the opposite sex and NO ONE can marry someone of the same sex.
