The whole same sex marriage thing, legally, is high comedy. This is the first time in the history of man (that comes to mind), where a court used the force of law to change the meaning of a word.
It was necessary because all sorts of government protections and benefits were attached to the word. More people wanted in on it, so they went to the courts which are now populated with “less than honorable’ judges.
It’s just the world we live in today. You can actually read about it in Revelation.
What is it you are being forced to do by two women getting married???
Can't figure out what you are meaning by it.
I don’t see what terms of the contract that third parties are abiding by.
If a man and woman divorce and remarry one or both remarry then I'm expected to abide by their contracts even though I recognize it as adultery rather than biblical marriage.
“Clanging cymbals” are manifested in clanging symbols.
The ancient Holy Sacrament of Matrimony, aka “marriage”, was first and wholly a religious rite and a “contract” between God and man.
What it has become now, in the USA, is a pedestrian social event, recently turned into a political statement, neither event of any consequence in the Heavenlies.
It is as a disguise on Halloween, unreal pretense and laughable on its face.
Civil contract as a point of some kind of meaningful legitimacy is also a charade against reality. The only valid and quite secular reason for recording a Sacrament of Matrimony would be for census purposes only.
Radical, I know, but accurate.
I think a lot of people are, bizarrely, missing your very obvious point.

Basically: if you choose to not participate in their activity because you don’t think it’s a “marriage” then you can be punished by law.
