@saundersoncross There was a certain element of irony in my post :) 6:14 AM May 16th via web in reply to saundersoncross
@saundersoncross Indeed. There are things that God hates and wants to get rid of (Prov 6:16-19), but the world he created is not one of them 6:03 AM May 16th via web in reply to saundersoncross

@davecl42 I think many people want Christianity to have privileged place. I'd prefer neutral state, as far as poss, eg on defn of "marriage" 4:27 AM Apr 25th via web in reply to davecl42
@davecl42 The language of "redefining marriage" certainly makes the issue sound bigger than it is 3:06 AM Apr 25th via web in reply to davecl42
@davecl42 Agreed. But if marriage exists independently of law, then if govt changes the legal definition, they haven't "redefined marriage" 2:57 AM Apr 25th via TweetDeck in reply to davecl42

@davecl42 So if the government didn't define marriage, then marriage wouldn't exist? 2:39 AM Apr 25th via web in reply to davecl42
The government can redefine marriage only if you first accept that marriage is, by definition, whatever the government says it is 1:36 AM Apr 25th via TweetDeck
