It WILL make you bake a cake with messaging which you disagree with.

Individually they may be their biological children... But there had to be another "donor" who is a biological father, no matter how butch one or the other may be...
It still takes a man and woman...

Moving the goal post. They are still raising their biological children in a gay marriage.

That is obvious in the operative language itself, which I quoted.
Your quoted segment of the law pertains to Officials acting under color of State law. This is to prevent the state officials from denying another state's acceptance of a marriage.
It does not protect individual religious liberty and conscience as you are saying it does.

gay couples will never experience what it's like to have a biological family and the immense bond for life that comes from that.
Where do we send the flowers for your funeral?

No, it is not. That is the same thing as saying a step-dad is the biological father of a child he had no part in creating... He may be a great dad to the kid but he will never be the kid's biological father...

Not moving the goalposts at all. It'd be no different than a step parent saying they are raising their biological kid when they didn't actually supply any biology to the equation. The kid is one of theirs biologically but it's not possible for two lesbians to scissor out a baby. Gotta have someone with testicles at some point in this story.

It's not. Redefining language can be done legally, but can also be undone, since as the left keeps demonstrating, language is a social construct and words are meaningless.

I never said there was no bond. I said the kid wasn't biologically theirs which is scientifically true.
ETA: I noticed you added a quote from someone else's post to try to prove your point that I said something I didn't say. For a guy who constantly tries to present himself as some sort of intellectual, you swung and missed on this one.

Your attempt at statutory interpretation is laughably wrong.

What an incredible cultural decline in 26 years. And it’s only accelerating.
Why I will forever loathe GWBush. He ran on the marriage amendment and he failed to get it done. Then we learn that he felt bad for Cheney's lesbo daughter. Now we are seeing the slide down the slippery slope.

Agreed. The worst part is he'll try to come in with some word salad that he thinks make his points seem more intellectually sound than they truly are.
