Who Can Get Married:

I do not wish nor intend to offend or besmirch any group, race or religion, I only wish to drive home a point. So I offer my apogee in advance, to any one taking offence.

I find it somewhat funny and saddening at the same time, that society thinks it can dictate who can and who can not get married. As I have previously stated, when two people dedicate their life to each other, they are married ! All society can do is dictate which couples are allowed to have the much sought after, recognition and be allowed to have a “Marriage Contract.”
Where do people get the right to dictate such things? They take their authority from a reckless lack of knowledge. The four main reasons to deny a marriage are homosexuality, cousins, race and religion. Every thing else is acceptable Let’s have a reality check. Too many misinformed people think of homosexuality as a fairly new thing, unnatural and a choice. First off if it is new to society why is it, the Bible states that a man shall not lie down with another man? As for unnatural, scientist in recant years have discover. Homosexuality is a gene and hormonal phenomenon. The life style may be a choice but the condition is not a choice. It may be classed as not “NORMAL“, what ever that is, but not unnatural. Now as for cousins, “the bible says kin should not wed.” Care to check out Laviticus 18 you will find a rather long list conspicuously missing any reference to cousins, or reference to, the sons and daughters of your mothers or fathers brothers or sisters. Here is one the Bible citing people do not wish to address. If you believe in Noah and the great flood, whom do you suppose Noah’s grandchildren and great grandchildren wed? Since all other kin and the animals was taboo, they were only left with, guess who, “Their Cousins.” That leaves race and religion. Since religion is a topic all its’ own let us take on race. Oops, doesn’t that back to Noah and the belief we all come from the same tree?
My main concern is, where does the dictatorship stop? Do we ban Dwarf, Extremely Tall, Fat and how about Ugly marriages so the trait no longer gets passed on, messing with the term “NORMAL?” Where does it stop?
I have heard it said, “It should be mandatory, for people who walk around with their head up their ass, to have glass bellies so they can see where they are going and get a glimpse of reality.”
To sum it up, true marriage is about Love and Dedication, and it is not our job to determine which mature individuals are allowed to fall in Love, or which ones are not !!


Just one old man’s thoughts on the matter.
