Divorce should be defined as being strictly between a man and a woman! Allowing this would cheapen the meaning of divorce!

“You have a valid marriage in the state of Massachusetts,” Louis Pulner, an attorney for Chambers, told the justices. “No one is asking the court to address the question of whether such marriages would be valid in Rhode Island.”

Riiiiiiigt.

Marriage is instituted by God for one man and one woman only. These two individuals aren’t married. You can get a piece of paper from the government stating you are a three headed goat, that doesn’t make it so.

In September 2006, a Massachusetts judge decided same-sex couples from Rhode Island could marry in Massachusetts because nothing in Rhode Island law specifically banned gay marriage.

Massachusetts activists judges, coming to your state next.

If RI doesn’t recognize their marriage in the first place, what are they worried about divorce for?

Maybe. The fact the grounds aren’t mentioned is rather curious. If you are going to go to the courthouse and peruse the filings, its odd you wouldn’t bother to mention it.

Oh, I don’t know. Call it a ‘civil union’ to denote the ‘coupling’ but keep Divorce as the term used to void it.

If gays want to experience the ‘wonder and joy’ of divorce, who are we to deny them?

(chuckle)

Now the Tubes will have to re-write the song “What do you want from life” with the line, “...a Massachusetts wedding, a Rhode Island divorce!” near the end.
