WWI, WWII, Korea, Viet Nam, the tens of millions killed during civil wars in
Africa and other countries during the last one hundred years, and how about
Stalin.
which of these was caused by god or religion? I think for country, land
grabs and tribal hatreds have killed many more millions than religion ever
has.

And if marriage isn't going to be defined as a relationship between a man
and a women why can't a man marry three women or men if he wants? Or two
men and three women marry. A women should be allowed to marry two or more
men or women if they wanted to. As long as it is a loving relationship how
does this hurt you or me? Why not? I see this as the beginning of a
slippery slope.
