Sure it is! Dude you've watched too many Hallmark movies. You've never had a person you utterly disliked suddenly change in your estimation? You change your stance on that person. You wouldn't give them the time of day but over time you even become friends. Dang it, you've grown on me in all the time we've been on here together. I use to think you were a liberal windbag, and now I think you're an honest, liberal windbag. See, changed my opinion!!

I was referring to this ^^^^
So far you barely reached an actual position of disagreeing with me, you have just made broad sweeping emotional assertions.
But I will be waiting for you to bring out actual legal and logical arguments in support of non traditional marriage
Cofefe time.

If you're libertarian, then why not take the position that government should get out of marriage altogether? Civil marriage (from my own libertarian perspective) discriminates, because it creates legal classes by "marital status" and then treats them differently based on that status (tax codes, workplace benefits etc.). Why should people be rewarded by the government for what is essentially a lifestyle choice?
When "marriage" was "protected" by a SCOTUS decision, the SCOTUS essentially decided that marriage is what government says it is- when marriage (with respect to biblical marriage) should be (and ultimately IS- from a biblical perspective) an institution independent of civil authority.
I think the decision could have been made in earnest to protect marriage... but really marriage does not need the protection, validation, or approval of the government and I would add, married people do not NEED SPECIAL PRIVILIGES EITHER.
At the end of the day, rebellious-gay people are going to have their rebellious gay-sex: the government should not be in the business of rewarding people for sin and rebellion- and THAT is why there should be no gay marriage. We give the homosexuals, and all of the lgbt SPACE to REPENT... that is IT. No recognition, no acceptance, no reward. Tolerance, and not an inch more than tolerance and space to repent.
