Nice cheap shot. Most people who disagree with you have
raised informed consent as a ground for marriage, which you
ignore in order to change to straw men -- or straw sheep.


If we can redefine marriage to include same-sex couples we obviously can
also redefine it so that informed consent is not requirement.


Has ABSOLUTELY ANYONE proposed that except people like you who don't
want any changes? Do you have any data that says people are out to marry
sheep, other than perhaps the existence of the inflatable sheep product,
"I Love Ewe"?



I've also noticed that you haven't responded to anything that involves
hard science with respect to gender.


That's not an issue.


Because? You keep saying gender is an issue. Gender is not always clear
by objective standards.

Oh. I'm sorry. I forgot. Nothing is an issue if it might cast
aspersions on your positions.
