So if "marriage" is a term that strictly defines Christian marriages between one man and (usually but not always) one woman, then I guess we'd better find another set of terms to replace "marriage," "husband," and "wife" for those marriages that don't involve Christian men and women.

Because if gays can't marry because God forbids homosexuality (that was in the Top Ten Things God Gets Mad About, or whatever they call that list, right? #8 I think it was, right after being a fucking hypocrite), and the only marriages that count are M/F marriages sanctioned by God, then anyone who *isn't Christian* can't actually be said to be married either, can they?

I mean, I as a Heathen, despite my "marriage certificate" aren't really "married," because it wasn't Jahweh who sanctified my marriage, was it? And my Muslim cousins aren't married after all either, because their "marriage" ritual involved Allah, not Jehovah. Would Jews be able to marry? They follow the same god but not Jesus so I'm a bit fuzzy on that one. But atheists certainly couldn't, unless they had a proper Christian ceremony in a church "like God intended."

Really, I guess most people who weren't devout Christians wouldn't be able to actually be "married." So I guess we'll have to refer to all Sikh, Buddhist, Moslem, Wiccan, Hindu, and other non-Christian joinings as "civil unions."

Because marriage is only for straight Christians.

If we can narrow that definition down so tightly that the fundies have it right where they want, with only them in that particular sandbox, then they can go over and play in that corner and happily ignore the rest of us (who will be happily ignoring them right back), and the rest of us can keep using "civil unions" to apply to *every* non-straight Christian "marriage," until we all get sick of saying "civil union" instead ("Mary, I love you so much. Will you join me in a civil union?") that we haul "marriage" out of the closet, dust it off, and just go, "Yeah, it works. Monogamous group of people who want to formalize their relationship = marriage. Whatever. Who cares."

And then no one will care if it's a gay marriage or not because, meh, whatever. It's a marriage. Fuck off.

It'd certainly be fun to watch the fundies throw fits when "marriage" gets reclaimed for *everyone*, eh?

I have low blood pressure, I know viagra/levitra can reduce it
further. But I have started taking GB daily and so was wondering very small
portion (may be 4 mg) levitra together with GB will dangerously lower my blood pressure or not.
