The Hokey-Pokey…
***The Hokey-Pokey***
(Shakespearean Style)
O proud left foot that ventures quick within
then soon upon a backward journey lithe
anon, once more the gesture, then begin:
Command sinistral pedestal to writhe.
Commence thou then the fervid Hokey-Poke.
A mad gyration, hips in wanton swirl.
To spin! A wilde release from heaven’s yoke.
Blessed dervish! Surely canst go, girl.
The Hoke, the poke — banish now thy doubt
verily, I say, ’tis what it’s all about.

But as I addressed, marriage has not always been a religious institution. Its a legal contract. I dont care what you call it, if everyone has the same rights and abilities as everyone else

ryn again – while today “marriage” may be considered a religious institution, since they feel the need to “protect” it so vehemently, it was not always. Marriage as a religious commitment is a relatively modern understanding. And if it were solely religious, people could not walk down to the courthouse and get hitched by a justice of the peace and have it be valid or recognized. As it stood inthe 1600s, marriage was not considered valid unless performed by the church – and that’s LATE – 1600 years after christianity started, when the church stuck its nose into it legally. Personally, I don’t care if you call it “smarriage”. I’ll go get “smarried” somewhere. I have a problem with the idea of “civil unions” since they are “seperate but equal” in theory, but are not equal in principle or practice. If marriage should be a solely religious institution, then married couples should not get tax breaks. If it is a solely legal institution, then maybe it shouldn’t be done in churches, and all should be at a courthouse. There has to be a moderate blend in between, with equality for all people who want it.
