Balerion,
First, no one has ever suggested that Jan has no right to privacy; it has only been suggested, and rightly so, that he exploits this ambiguity by using it as a shield against criticism.
There is NO ambiguity. You're just not satisfied with the idea that people can have an opinion that differs from yours specifically on this subject matter, not to mention frustrated because you have nothing (outside of the mainstream script) to offer.
Secondly, no one is trolling jan. Asking him to be forthright about his views is a perfectly valid request, even if he is not required to oblige. And given his tactics, it's also perfectly valid to criticize him for hiding. The fact that he doesn't have to share is completely irrelevant.
What's scary is you actually believe that I'm not being trolled.
I've stated on at least a couple of occasions what my views are, but I will state them here again.
The originial meaning, and understanding of ''marriage'' is a union between a man and a woman, not between a man and a man, or woman and a woman
We use the term ''marriage'', ''married'', and ''marry'' in ways that do not mean the original union, but it is based on it.
For example, one can be said to be married to ones work, or two companies merging together can be described as ''marrying''.
But they are based on the original meaning, not that they are married in the same sense.
So whilst it is legal for homo-sex marriage, it falls short of the original meaning and purpose of marriage.
Do yourself a favor and just stop. As usual, you're on the wrong side of this. Protecting a troll just because he shares your belief system.
It's not me you're angry with, it's the opinions I hold, and you are frustrated because (as I said earlier) you cannot counter them.
I dare say, anyone with the opinion that marriage is essentially between a man and a woman, would be classed as a troll.
You guys want what you want, and you don't care how many rules, or, meanings, you change, or how many goal post shifts it takes to force an issue you want.
jan.
