Western culture is derived from the practices I've noted. Areyou denying basic history of arranged marriages? You deny dowries? You have provided nothing to link modern marriage to practices of ancient times. Heck, early Christians didn't even perform a religious ceremony for marriage.

You obviously either don't know about or are pretending that same sex marriage never existed. But we know it did for native Americans of North America. We know a same sex union existed in Ancient Greece and Rome. In china.

We know it was common enough that Christians had to make laws against it, Theodosian Code. 342 AD.

I'll start answering your questions when you provide the artifacts that indicate marriage before history. I'm curious how you know how early homosapiens acted. Are there ancient cave paintings indicating marriage?

Btw, I don't dislike the bible. You really are terrible at deductions.

I'm denying that this was ever created by a legal, codified system.

Marriage existed before "Moses" and the Jews started to regulate it. You are actually the Old Testament Biblical ones, attempting to change an already established cultural institution through laws and power.

Your examples of marriage being dynamic, yet universal prove my point. Marriage should be what the people want, not what the powers-that-be dictate.

I have a keen interest in North American Indian culture. I must say I had never heard about gay marriage among North American Indians. Do you have any links to some references on this subject? I'd love to read them.
