That is, if marriage is going to perpetuate as some sacred, expected and mandatory behaviour.<br /><br />I am fully down with marriage in what it means for two people spiritually, but not what it means socially. <br /><br />So, during the revolution (in joke for any 3rd party readers) we will re-invent the concept to include all types of arrangements where two (or more) people decide to harmoniously live in an arrangement together and mutually commit to that arrangement.Luke Daleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00074701550720952708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8296399.post-1150523557458336122006-06-17T15:52:00.000+10:002006-06-17T15:52:00.000+10:00Australia is out of step with most enlightened dem...Australia is out of step with most enlightened democracies and certainly those of the Europe. Australian policy choice is nothing mirror images of the USA and Howard and his Government prove once more to be nothing more that lapdogs of the USA. <BR/><BR/>Will there outrage? Or is Howard’s Australia really reflecting the majority view? It is a pity Australian couldn’t look east to New Zealand and see the model of a democracy built on respect, and tolerance of its entire people. <BR/><BR/>The actions of the Howard government bring shame on all Australians and reduces the standing Australians in the eyes of many.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
