Definitions are the basis for order and understanding in communications and in life. If we are transparent about our views and the implications of those views at least we know where we agree and disagree. However, when the subtle redefinition of terms serves as the impetus for manipulative change something must be done ... one must take a stand. I do not believe or feel that it is wrong or hateful to state what has been agreed upon in our nation for hundreds of years as a definition ... marriage is the legal union of only one man and one woman as husband and wife.
