I guess I won't be asking many of you to congratulate me on my nuptials next spring! 
I realize the legal system sees it as a contractual agreement and the church sees it as much more than that. Personally, I think of marriage as the WHOLE thing, both a binding of two people in law and in spirit. So I can't really 'divide' it up the way some people suggest we do it.
It will be interesting to watch as the ripples from the MA ruling spread, though.

Cloudy! Of course I'll congradulate you and Nacht!
Just because I think the whole 'legal concept' of the institution should be completely destroyed, doesn't mean that I am not glad that you two find joy and comfort in eachother. I just think that the gubmint/ins co's have way to much say in our personal lives - and that they should be booted from it.
But as for you two, I'm happy for the both of you and will be eagerly awaiting pics on Stealthy's! [img]smile.gif[/img]
