That's how the liberals have been able to promote things...

If what you're saying is true (and I can't argue) then there is something in the word "marriage" that broke the liberal propaganda machine.

I fully understand why "baby killing" had to be re-termed "abortion." I fully understand why the term "baby" had to be replaced with "product of conception." I understand all the emotions and connotations those words carried.

But I'm a child of the 60s. I know that sex and marriage have been completely disconnected. For a while there "marriage" was equal to "killing our love."

Since marriage has been effectively dead for at least 30 years, what is it about this word in conjunction with homosexuals that caused the liberal propaganda machine to take a detour?

And I'm not trying to play teacher trying to get someone else to come up with the answer I'm thinking of, I really don't understand.

Shalom.

This is just my opinion, but I think that the answer is two fold. First, the word "marriage" conjures up the thought of traditional marriage. Second, and more importantly, the idea of homosexual marriage didn't catch on so they changed the name to civil unions (it had to be something) and started to seek the same status as married couples.
