Oh alright then
I'm not outraged by the name. I'm not gay and I'm not religious, I'm looking at it from the outside. The majority of gay people aren't complaining either. The fact is - some members of the church are complaining because maybe some gay people want the right to call their civil partnership a marriage.
My points are/were: - No one group or person has the monopoly of the term 'marriage'. The other point is that - even if 'old fashioned' folk prefer things to stay the same (personally, next time one of those gets ill I think we should treat them with leeches not antibiotics) our culture denotes that we progress. You clearly believe the word 'marriage' is purely related to a man and a woman being married/living in matrimony - However, history doesn't uphold that view exclusively. Until the term is patented by somebody, why should somebody elses view or right to call themselves married be less important than your own?

Everybody should mind their own goddamned business.
In fact, I'm going to make it my business to make everyone mind their own business.
