    @MAGISTERLUDI -

    That is just not true. There has never been one definition of marriage throughout the history of the world. Marriage has been a constantly changing thing. In the ancient world, many different types of marriages were preformed. Polygamy, both polygyny and polyandry, secular marriages, monogamous marriages, and yes, homosexual marriages have all been common throughout human history. One group having claim to what marriage is in a secular society like the USA defeats the purpose of having the secularism.

    Besides, I don't know what the whole problem of "redefining" is. Words change meaning throughout time. That is language.
