No law about someone else's marriage can hurt mine.

Forvige me if I ignore the rest of your post. I'm not interested in your selfishness. Your marriage may be intact, but the marraiges of those that follow, including your children's, will not.

Just look at how the free love movement impacted marriage. It did not change my parents'. It did change mine and has had a tremendous impact on my children's, nieces', nephews', etc.

Shalom.

I think Taliesan used his marriage as an example of Christian marriages in general, and that he would reject (as do I) your claim that any Christian marriage will be rendered nonintact by state recognition of same-sex "marriage."

I obviously think my view is not selfish, but is biblical realism. I won't try to convince you.

I can't imagine how the free love movement affected anyone who did not subscribe to it.

The biblical view of man's moral is quite simple -- purposefully so, refreshingly so. Man is responsible for his acts, and is responsible to love his neighbor.

We could argue about what love is. I note that from Matthew to Revelation it had nothing to do the state of the world.

It did? You've taken up the practice of "swinging"?

I'm shocked!

(Shrugs). If so, so be it. If people choose to enter into degraded marriages and decide not to take the institution of marriage seriously, that's their loss.
