The state's definition of marriage is irrelevant when there is a definition given by God, and it's God's Christians are obliged to honor: marriage is beteween one man and one woman, period.

Sorry Faith but reality once again simply says you are wrong. It's fine for the God you made up to determine the rules for your cult but you do not get to redefine marriage for anyone else. Reality Faith. Marriage is a State Licensed legal contract. NEITHER YOU OR THE GOD YOU CREATED GET TO REDEFINE THIS.

That's a very modern romantic concept. Throughout most of human history, including Biblical history, marriage was an agreement between two men - a father paying another man to take his daughter off his hands. ... marriage is beteween one man and one woman, period."If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you...." -- Rudyard Kipling

It's no longer a free country so I'm not allowed to obey God over the state, which means I'll obey God if I'm put in the position to choose, and take my punishment.

Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.

Jacob bought his wife. In fact, Laban pulled the old bait-and-switch and Jacob had to buy two wives. He also cleaved unto two servant girls.

I didn't say they OBEYED the law, I merely stated the law.

Of course this is still a free country but while you are free to make up any God you want that does not mean you are free to break the laws of the State.

Of course it's still a free country. You are free to obey your god to your hearts content. No one is going to deny you that right.
But everyone else is also free to obey their own gods or lack thereof without any interference from you.Eschew obfuscation. Habituate elucidation.

Recognize there is no such law except for you christians. Your laws do not apply to the rest of us. You can no longer dictate to the rest of non-christian society. Hell, you folk can't even dictate to your own anymore. 10,000 cults and everyone is different. Just like all the rest of the christian cults yours is a minority with no more say on the greater church than I.
Obey what you want how you want but don't expect the rest of us to follow. Edited by AZPaul3, : No reason given.Eschew obfuscation. Habituate elucidation.

That was quite a rant.l To no good purpose that I can see since I said absolutely nothing that applies to anyone but myself and others who belive what I believe. And what I believe is based on the Bible so any cults that don't accept the Bible or interpret away the passage about marriage are not included. It's all about those who believe what I believe based on the Bible, and that is that God has defined marriage and it's only for male with female, period. And if the secular government defines it some other way then I and all those who believe as I do will disobey it in order to obey God. That's it. Do as you please, I never said you should do anything different.
Ha ha! I see Percy has been having himself a good old time censoring every single word I write. Edited by Faith, : No reason given. Edited by Faith, : No reason given. Edited by Faith, : No reason given.
