It seems that the Mayor of New Paltz, NY has a concince too. He’s been performing some same-sex marriages. The Mayor is also a member of the Green Party. (Just pointing out an uncommon fact. I’m not drawing any conclusions from this at all.)
One part of the article mentiones some statements by a protestor:
One protester stood outside the hall with a sign that read, in part, “It’s Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve.”
“It’s against nature,” Angelo Da’Quaro said of same-sex marriage. “It’s against religion, it’s against all of that.”
Hmmm. If Adam and Eve were the only two people around that means there was no one to marry them. Therefore, they were having sex out of wedlock. Additionally, marriage is something use human’s came up with. It’s a human concept, not something out of nature.
