I would like to show support for gay marriage in Nevada, along with other people. If someone could organize this, please let me know.

I suggested once on RGJ that legalizing gay marriage could bring a bunch of $$'s into our town. Everyone coming here to get married would surely spend money on flowers, on hotel rooms, at our gas stations, at our airport, in our casinos...

I have also mentioned the possibility that supporters might want to donate blood before/during/after any gathering to emphasize the fact that the blood services will not accept donations from anyone admitting to a same-sex relationship.

And on top of that, what if a religion recognizes a same-sex marriage, but the government forbids it? Many major religions now recognize the union of same-sex couples, but also state that a couple in a union are living in sin if that union is not a marriage.

posted something like this in my blog:

Prop 8 passed in CA defining that marriage is only a union between a "man" and a "woman", but does it include a definition of man or woman?

What is a man or a woman? There have been people born as XX that developed a significant male anatomy. And vice-versa.

There have also been male circumcisions that have gone drastically awry, and the parents elected to ask the doctor to assign a different gender profile to the child.

And there have been children raised as the opposite gender in cultures that respect and honor that choice (of the parents, not the child).

And that doesn't even touch the other variations, like extra X or extra Y chromosomes.

Not even talking about gender-reassignment here.

So if we define a man as XY and a woman as XX, then no one else can never ever get married, no matter what church camp they go to?
