    Of course. Why have just two people in a marriage. It used to be defined as something that happened between a man and a woman. Now it's something that can happen between two non-closely related people, regardless of gender, so it's only a small step to having it between any number of people.

    That's pretty much my view on the matter.


    Other wise you get the idiots talking about elderly brothers or elderly sisters getting married to get around inheritance tax laws.

          Yes, and then a board meeting would become a euphemism for an orgy.

          Oh and there wouldn't be any shortage of women on the board then so two birds with one stone?

          AGM anyone? Perhaps a weekly extraordinay GM? Bring a bottle like?

            Deuteronomy 22:11 is a good one as well.

              I've been to a civil partnership ceremony and I'd probably go to a gay wedding if they were good friends.

              I have sympathy for those that feel uncomfortable with gay weddings. I'm quite a libertarian person and I think that anyone should be able to do what they feel like with others so long as the others consent to it and are mature and mindful of what they're consenting to.

              What I disagree with, and where my sympathy comes from, is when a group of like minded people feel they can impose their own beliefs on others, and then to not accept them is to be racist, homophobic, etc.

              I think anyone should be free to feel uncomfortable, uneasy or dislike somebody because of the way they look, talk, behave, or simply because they get a certan itch about them. I also support the church if it doesn't want to carry out gay marriage ceremonies. I don't think they should be forced to do it. Then again I'm not religious and I view the church like some kind of club, and clubs have their own rules.

                  Do you remember Force Flakes?

                  A childhood staple chez Gittins.

                  Someone was explaining the etymolgy of this cereal to me tge other day. Something to do with their laxative effect, apparently.

                  Puts a whole new perspective on it....
