Foul ball (counts as Strike one). You are using the term “marriage” to mean
“traditional marriage”, which has the definition you are looking for.

Speaking of changing definitions-- I wonder how old that definition is!

Encarta: marriage: 1. legal relationship between spouses: a legally
recognized relationship, established by a civil or religious ceremony,
between two people who intend to live together as sexual and domestic
partners
Strike two. But then, Encarta is part of the Evil Empire (no definitions
under marriage for Encarta mention either man or woman).

Okay, can’t you see how wrong and biased that is! Astonishing! (Evil indeed;-)

Devil’s: Marriage: The state or condition of a community consisting of a
master, a mistress and two slaves, making in all, two.
Saved! Kinda...sorta....so, you are the Devil’s Advocate? :-)

You green-eyed bigot! :-) Why do you draw the limit at 2???
How do you feel about brothers wedding each other?
How about a father, his adult daughter and adult son?
How about mom, Oedipus and Fido?
How can one argue against such unions while being in favor of same-sex
marriages?
