I have tried desperately to understand you.

I keep hearing that you want the government out of enforcing the definition of marriage, and that you want religions to make their own definitions and to be the sole decider of marriage as they see it within their religion.

Here’s my final statement to you on this issue. Take it for what it’s worth without reposting it into a digest of your reasoning.

For as long as we grant govt the right to define marriage, we are beholden to its interpretation of it by force of law, not God’s law, but bureaucratic law, and potentially tyrannical law. The 1st Amendment speaks to this.

Marriage is a sacrament of Faith between one man and one woman witnessed by God. I have no desire to arrest anyone that enjoys pretending it’s something else.

Any conclusions or extended meaning you draw from this should not be considered my views on the matter. So avoid the assertions, implications, and assumptions if you have anything further to say.

FRegards.
